Gaming Commission of Ghana
The Gaming Commission of Ghana regulates gaming under the Gaming Act 2006 (Act 721). Its public materials cover licensed operators, responsible gaming and complaint routes.
Current operator list
The licensed-operators page says its 2026 list was issued on 1 January 2026 and expires on 31 December 2026.
For the five brands reviewed here:
| Trade name | Sports betting | Online casino |
|---|---|---|
| 1XBET | Listed | Listed |
| BETWINNER | Listed | Listed |
| 1WIN | Not found | Not found |
| MELBET | Listed | Not marked on the table |
| LINEBET | Not found | Not found |
This table alone does not identify the local legal entity, licence number or authorised domain. A complete check should match those details and the product category.

Complaint checklist
The Commission’s FAQ page says a complaint can be submitted in writing or by email with supporting evidence. Before escalating:
- contact the operator through its formal support channel;
- save the account ID, transaction reference and disputed term;
- keep dated screenshots and correspondence;
- remove passwords, PINs and one-time codes from attachments;
- send a concise timeline and the remedy requested.
What a listing does not guarantee
A licence does not freeze a bonus, guarantee a withdrawal time or remove gambling risk. Verify the live offer, cashier limits, KYC rules and responsible-gambling controls in the account.
Questions to send the Commission
When a trade-name row is not enough, ask GCG to confirm:
- the Ghana legal entity and licence number;
- the authorised domain and app publisher;
- the approved product categories;
- issue, expiry and current status;
- whether a redirect or mirror belongs to the same authorisation.
Attach the exact URL and a screenshot of the licence claim. Do not send passwords, payment PINs or one-time codes.
Complaints and self-exclusion
The Commission’s FAQ says complaints can be submitted by email or in writing with evidence, or at its premises using a complaint form. Our complaint guide provides a chronological evidence checklist. The Commission also publishes information about self-exclusion and operator limits; see responsible gambling when control is becoming difficult.
Re-check dates
The current table uses annual issue and expiry dates. Re-check after expiry and before a new deposit. Ghana Odds records material regulator changes in its Verification Log but the live Commission page remains authoritative.
