Licensing data you can query
Verifying gambling operator licenses today is manual. Compliance teams, affiliates, and operators visit each regulator's website one-by-one. Incumbent compliance suites sell $10k+ contracts and gate access behind sales calls. Mid-market customers get nothing.
We expose the same data through a single REST API with transparent self-serve pricing. Built by an ex-operator DevOps engineer who lived through six years of licensing pain across multiple jurisdictions — the API we wish had existed.
What's live
- 01 REST API and hosted MCP server
- 02 Webhook notifications on status changes

Frequently asked questions
What is iGregulator? +
iGregulator is a gambling license verification API. It checks whether an operator holds a valid license across UKGC, MGA, Curaçao, Kahnawake, Anjouan, Tobique, and the Isle of Man, and surfaces status changes, expiries, and revocations as machine-readable data.
Which jurisdictions do you cover? +
Seven regulators are live today — the UK Gambling Commission (UKGC), Malta Gaming Authority (MGA), Curaçao, Kahnawake, Anjouan, the Tobique Gaming Commission (TGC), and the Isle of Man Gambling Supervision Commission (IOM) — with more added over time. Every plan accesses every jurisdiction; coverage is never gated by tier.
How current is the licensing data? +
Every register is read daily, and every status shows when we last read it and which regulator page it came from. If a read fails, we change nothing rather than guess. Live per-register freshness (when we last read each register) is at igregulator.io/status/. Tobique's site currently blocks most automated reads.
Is it really free? +
Yes. Founding members get the full Starter plan free — no credit card, no time limit. Paid tiers (Pro and up) arrive later, and founding members keep their access.
Who is iGregulator for? +
Compliance teams, payment providers, affiliate networks, and iGaming law firms that need machine-readable licensing data without a $10k+ contract with an incumbent compliance suite.
Do you offer an API and an MCP server? +
Both. A REST API with Bearer-token auth, plus a hosted MCP server at mcp.igregulator.io so AI agents like Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, and Windsurf can verify licenses directly.
