Licensing & Regulation
Last updated: June 26, 2026
1.ML operates under regulated gaming licenses and is held to the highest standards of fairness, security, and accountability. This page explains how we are licensed, how your funds and the games are protected, and how you can verify exactly who you are betting with.
1. Regulated, Licensed, and Accountable
1.ML, a Simon Wilby brand, operates exclusively under valid gaming licenses issued by recognized regulatory authorities. We offer our Money Line sports betting services only in jurisdictions where we are authorized to do so, and we hold ourselves to the highest standards of integrity, transparency, and player protection.
Operating under regulation is not a formality — it is a promise. It means our markets are fair, your funds are protected, our payouts are honored, and you have an independent authority to turn to if something ever goes wrong.
2. Our Licensing Framework
Each 1.ML operating entity is licensed by the competent authority for the territory it serves. Licensing conditions govern everything from financial stability and game fairness to advertising standards and player protection.
- Licenses are held with regulators such as the Malta Gaming Authority, the UK Gambling Commission, and equivalent bodies in other regulated markets.
- Our license numbers, status, and the issuing authority for your jurisdiction are available on request and displayed where required.
- We continuously meet ongoing regulatory obligations, including reporting, audits, and compliance reviews.
- We do not accept customers from jurisdictions where our Service is not licensed or is prohibited.
3. Game Fairness and Integrity
Trust is earned through verifiable fairness. Our pricing, settlement, and platform systems are independently tested and monitored to ensure outcomes are accurate, unbiased, and free from manipulation.
- Independent test houses audit our systems for fairness, accuracy, and reliability.
- We partner with integrity-monitoring bodies to detect and report suspicious betting patterns.
- Markets are settled against official results from recognized governing bodies.
- Our odds and settlement engines are subject to regular technical review.
4. Player Fund Protection
Your money is kept safe and separate. Customer funds are held in segregated accounts, ring-fenced from operational funds, so that your balance is protected and available for withdrawal in accordance with our regulator’s requirements.
- Customer balances are held separately from company operating capital.
- Withdrawals are processed promptly to verified payment methods.
- Fund-protection arrangements meet or exceed the standards set by our licensing authority.
5. Anti-Money-Laundering and Know-Your-Customer
We maintain robust anti-money-laundering (AML) and counter-terrorist-financing programs in line with our regulatory obligations. Identity verification (KYC), transaction monitoring, and source-of-funds checks protect both our players and the integrity of the Service.
- All accounts are subject to identity and age verification.
- We monitor transactions for unusual or suspicious activity.
- We may request source-of-funds documentation where required.
- Suspicious activity is reported to the relevant authorities as mandated by law.
6. Responsible Advertising
Our marketing is honest, transparent, and never targeted at minors or vulnerable individuals. We comply with advertising codes in every market we serve, clearly present terms and conditions, and always promote safer gambling alongside our offers.
7. Complaints and Dispute Resolution
If you have a concern, we want to resolve it fairly and quickly. Complaints are handled through our formal complaints procedure. If you are not satisfied with our resolution, you have the right to escalate the matter to an independent Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) provider and, ultimately, to our regulator.
