Tenobet licence and trust: UKGC and Anjouan explained
Available in GBThe UK Gambling Commission public business register does not list Tenobet, tenobet.io or Softon Ltd as a licensed Great Britain operator. Separately, the Anjouan Gaming public register lists Softon Ltd with valid Internet Gaming Licence ALSI-202409012-FI1, and TenoBet is linked to Softon Ltd.
For a UK reader, that distinction matters more than a generic “licensed casino” badge. The useful question is not whether a licence exists somewhere, but which regulator issued it, which legal market it covers and which protections can actually be inferred from that status.

Tenobet in the UKGC register
The UK Gambling Commission public business register is the primary source for Great Britain operating licences. It does not list Tenobet, tenobet.io or Softon Ltd as a licensed Great Britain operator.
A missing UKGC listing answers the licensing question for Great Britain, but it does not by itself show whether a registration form will accept a UK address. For account eligibility, see UK access evidence.
The Commission itself states that a business needs an operating licence if it wants to provide gambling facilities to players in Great Britain, including remote gambling. Its remote casino licence guidance also says that, regardless of where a business is based, a Commission licence is needed when providing online gambling facilities to consumers in Great Britain. Readers can verify that rule on the UKGC operating-licence guidance.
Softon Ltd and the Anjouan licence
The Anjouan Gaming public register lists Softon Ltd with licence number ALSI-202409012-FI1 and status valid. TenoBet is linked to Softon Ltd and the same licence number.
The Anjouan register lists Softon Ltd as valid under licence ALSI-202409012-FI1. The register information available here does not show a current expiry date.
Licence jurisdiction is not a safety score
An Anjouan licence establishes Softon Ltd’s regulatory status in that jurisdiction. It does not tell you how quickly withdrawals are handled, how a complaint will be resolved, what KYC may involve or whether UK-specific protections apply.
What an Anjouan licence does not prove for Great Britain
For players in England, Scotland and Wales, the UK Gambling Commission regulates remote gambling offered to consumers in Great Britain. Its rules and operating-licence framework are separate from Anjouan Gaming. Because the UKGC register does not list Tenobet, tenobet.io or Softon Ltd, an Anjouan licence should not be treated as UKGC supervision.
The Anjouan licence does not provide UKGC consumer-protection coverage, a UKGC-approved alternative dispute route or GAMSTOP participation. See Tenobet and GAMSTOP for self-exclusion coverage and Tenobet complaints for reported disputes and reputation signals.
Northern Ireland is separate from Great Britain for gambling regulation; see UK gambling-law context for that distinction.
How to check a gambling licence
When checking a licence, use the regulator’s own public register first. A third-party review cannot create a UKGC licence that is absent from the UKGC register.
TenoBet is linked to Softon Ltd. The licence number and status can be checked directly in the Anjouan Gaming register.
How to repeat the licence check yourself
- Open the UKGC business register and search the business name, trading name and domain.
- Open the Anjouan Gaming licence register and search Softon Ltd or ALSI-202409012-FI1.
- Check that the company, status and licence number match the details shown by the regulator.
- Confirm the jurisdiction: an Anjouan licence is not a UKGC licence.
- If a review publishes a local licence number, verify it against the named local regulator before relying on it.
Does the missing UKGC listing mean UK accounts are blocked?
Licensing and technical account access are related but not identical. Check the operator’s current country restrictions and registration flow for your own location; the UK access information explains the conflicting signals.
For current account eligibility, see UK access and check Tenobet’s live account terms. For sign-up requirements, see Tenobet registration.
Before you use Tenobet
A polished website, a UK-facing page or familiar payment logos do not change the licence recorded by a regulator. An offshore licence number also does not predict how a specific complaint will be resolved. Check the regulator for licence status, the operator terms for account conditions and complaint records for reported disputes.
Before depositing, check the regulator record, confirm current country eligibility, read withdrawal conditions and review complaint history. A large bonus or polished interface should not substitute for those checks.
What the two regulator searches tell you
The UKGC and Anjouan results answer different questions. The UKGC register is the relevant source for a Great Britain operating licence, and Tenobet, tenobet.io and Softon Ltd are not listed there. The Anjouan Gaming register lists Softon Ltd as valid under ALSI-202409012-FI1. That confirms an Anjouan licence, not a Great Britain one.
For a reader in England, Scotland or Wales, the practical consequence is that UKGC-specific protections should not be assumed. That includes the regulatory framework attached to a UKGC operating licence. Northern Ireland sits under a different gambling-law regime, so the same Great Britain licence test should not be casually applied to every part of the UK.
What an offshore licence does not answer
A licence can identify the regulator and operator, but it does not tell you whether your current country is accepted, whether a particular bonus is available to your account or how a withdrawal will be handled. Those questions come from the operator’s current account terms, cashier conditions and the specific promotion rules shown to the user.
Complaint history also needs its own reading. Casino Guru currently gives TenoBet a Safety Index of 4.1, labelled Low, and publishes complaint records. That information can highlight issues worth checking before depositing, but a complaint is an account-level dispute rather than a change to the licence register.
GAMSTOP is another distinct protection. Tenobet and Softon Ltd do not appear on the current GAMSTOP participating-companies page. Anyone relying on GAMSTOP should not assume that an Anjouan licence extends the Great Britain self-exclusion scheme to Tenobet.
Checks that matter before depositing
Start with the licence jurisdiction that matters to your location. Then read Tenobet’s current country restrictions using your real residence, confirm the payment methods shown in the cashier and read the withdrawal conditions before funding the account. If a promotion is selected, read its wagering and eligibility terms independently of the licence wording.
If KYC is requested, use only an authenticated account route or an official support channel for identity documents. Keep records of the terms shown to you, especially if the account is later reviewed or a withdrawal is delayed. These steps do not guarantee an outcome, but they reduce ambiguity about which conditions applied to the account.
Operator name and licence number should match
Tenobet is linked to Softon Ltd, while the Anjouan register lists Softon Ltd under licence ALSI-202409012-FI1. When checking an offshore licence, match the company name and licence number rather than relying only on the casino brand name or a logo shown on a third-party website.
The same principle applies in Great Britain. Search the UKGC business register for the trading name, domain and operator name. Tenobet, tenobet.io and Softon Ltd are not listed there as Great Britain licensees, so a UKGC logo or general reference to UK regulation elsewhere would not override the register.
Use the regulator entry, not a badge
Licence badges and marketing language are easy to copy or display out of context. The useful details are the regulator, legal entity, licence number and status. For Tenobet, the Anjouan entry names Softon Ltd and ALSI-202409012-FI1, while the UKGC business register does not list Tenobet, tenobet.io or Softon Ltd.
If a casino changes operator or licence details, repeat the register check before relying on an older licence reference.
Keep the regulator entry with any account terms you rely on, especially before depositing.
Regulator records should remain the final reference
Licence badges and affiliate summaries can become stale, so the regulator entry and the operator identity shown there are the stronger evidence when checking jurisdiction.
What the licence position means for UK readers
Softon Ltd appears in the Anjouan Gaming register as valid under ALSI-202409012-FI1, and TenoBet is linked to that licence. The UK Gambling Commission business register does not list Tenobet, tenobet.io or Softon Ltd as a Great Britain licensee.
Anjouan licensing does not replace UKGC licensing. Before using Tenobet from the UK, check current account eligibility, the rules that apply to deposits and withdrawals, complaint history and the self-exclusion protections available to you.
