Rollbit's Curaçao Licence Listed Expired, Under Appeal

WILLEMSTAD — The company behind Rollbit no longer holds a current Curaçao licence, according to the regulator’s own records, and it is contesting that outcome. In the online gaming licence register that the Curaçao Gaming Authority (CGA) published with an edition date of 14 October 2026, Bull Gaming N.V. appears under licence OGL/2024/1260/0494 (B2C, company registration 157086) with an issue date of 23 November 2025, a printed expiry date of 23 May 2026 and the status “Expired. Re-evaluating in administrative appeal.” No other entry in that edition carries an appeal note. The CGA’s certificate page for rollbit.com, checked today, reads “Application status: Granted. License status: Revoked” and says the record “does not confirm current authorization to operate.” We found no public statement from Rollbit or Bull Gaming on the licence.

Two CGA records, two words

The register and the certificate do not use the same term. The register says expired and under appeal; the certificate says revoked. Bull Gaming does not appear in the CGA’s separate enforcement register dated 14 September 2026, which the regulator says covers actions it takes that affect a licence’s status, such as revocation, suspension or a decision not to extend. The register itself carries a caveat: the CGA says on its register page that the overviews “do not guarantee the current validity of the licenses” and that “no rights can be derived from these overviews.” The term dates themselves are not new. The edition dated 9 January 2026 already listed the same licence with the 23 May 2026 expiry and no status. What has changed is the status now printed beside it. Trade reports in September cited a red “revoked” seal in the site footer. We could not check that ourselves: rollbit.com returns HTTP 451, unavailable for legal reasons, from our location in Germany.

The Anjouan licence

Rollbit has a second licence. A licence validation page on dira-authority.org, generated today, lists Acacia Tech Ltd as the holder of Anjouan internet gaming licence ALSI-042308006-FII, names rollbit.com as its registered website and shows the operating status as valid. The same page says the licence does not extend to Australia, Comoros, France, the Netherlands, Spain, the United Kingdom or the United States, or to FATF-blacklisted and sanctioned jurisdictions. The licence aggregator iGregulator records the Anjouan licence as issued on 16 August 2023 and expiring on 20 August 2027. Anjouan and Curaçao are separate regimes, and an Anjouan listing says nothing about how Curaçao will decide the appeal.

Where Rollbit sits in Curaçao’s backlog

All 407 entries in the 14 October edition that print both an issue and an expiry date show the two exactly six months apart, the pattern of provisional licences. Many of those operators are still waiting for the CGA’s next decision. In the 14 October edition we counted 296 entries marked “Assessment in progress”, 208 marked indefinite, 57 marked expired and 50 marked revoked, plus Bull Gaming’s appeal entry; some rows print no status. The register also shows how other operators behind brands we track have fared. Natural Nine B.V., which holds Shuffle’s licence, has been listed as indefinite since 24 December 2025. Universe B Games B.V., the BetFury operator, is shown as under assessment after a term that ended on 31 July 2026. More on the brand’s token and products is on our Rollbit project page.

Why it matters for GambleFi

Rollbit runs one of the best-known casino tokens, RLB, so its licence status matters to token holders as well as players. Curaçao is moving operators from old master licences into a register that prints dates and statuses, and that register is now the easiest outside check on whether a crypto casino is licensed and by whom. Other regulators are tightening up too, from Michigan’s 33 cease-and-desist letters to offshore sites to the UK’s settlement with Grosvenor over crypto source-of-funds checks. For the wider token-and-platform picture, start with what GambleFi means in practice. This article reports what public registers show. It is not legal advice and does not recommend any operator, and the outcome of the appeal is not yet known.
