Kitty Bingo: owner and licence

Who operates Kitty Bingo

The company behind Kitty Bingo in Great Britain is Rank Interactive (Gibraltar) Limited. That is the legal operator you deal with when you register, deposit or ask for a withdrawal, and its name, rather than the brand name, is what appears on the Gambling Commission's records.

Rank Interactive (Gibraltar) Limited is the online arm of The Rank Group, a London-listed company best known on the high street for Grosvenor casinos and Mecca bingo clubs. Kitty Bingo is one of a dozen brands Rank runs online from the same account.

Kitty Bingo licence: account 57924 in detail

Rank's register entry for account 57924 (opens in a new tab) listed the following on 20 October 2026. Bingo sites need a bingo licence for the bingo rooms and a casino licence for the slots and instant games that sit beside them, and this account holds both.

The 2022 start date reflects when this particular Rank company was licensed, not when the Kitty Bingo name first appeared. Brands can move from one licensed company to another inside a group, and the register only shows the current holder. For a fuller explanation of licence numbers, see what a casino licence number tells you.

Kitty Bingo history: from Stride Gaming to Rank

Kitty Bingo started life outside Rank. It was one of the brands of Stride Gaming, an AIM-listed bingo and slots operator. Rank agreed to buy Stride in 2019, the deal cleared Gambling Commission review in September 2019, and Rank announced completion on 4 October 2019. Trade reports valued Stride at about £115 million earlier that year.

Trade coverage of the deal named Kitty Bingo alongside other Stride brands including Lucky Pants, Lucky VIP, Regal Wins and Spin and Win. In November 2020 Rank reported the first stage of moving Stride's brands onto its own Rank Interactive platform, starting with Bella Casino. Today all of those names appear on the same Rank licence.

What UK rules mean on a bingo site like Kitty Bingo

Bingo brands are often thought of as gentler than casinos, but most of the money staked on a typical bingo site goes through slots and instant games in the side menu. The rules for those games are the same as at any online casino:

• Slot stakes are capped at £5 a spin for players aged 25 and over, under the £5 slot stake limit, and at £2 for 18 to 24-year-olds.
• Slots can't autoplay, can't spin faster than once every 2.5 seconds, and can't celebrate a win that is equal to or less than your stake.
• Bonus wagering can't exceed 10x since 19 January 2026.
• Offers can't mix products, so a bingo ticket deal can't require you to play slots to receive it.

The bingo rooms themselves follow their own game mechanics. If you are new to them, our guides to online bingo and the classic 90-ball format explain ticket prices, patterns and how prize pots are set. A worked example: buying six tickets at 10p each costs 60p a game, so 20 games costs £12 whether you win a line or not.

How to check Kitty Bingo on the Gambling Commission register

1. Go to the Gambling Commission's register of gambling businesses.
2. Search by domain using kittybingo.com rather than the brand name.
3. Open the result and confirm it shows Rank Interactive (Gibraltar) Limited, account 57924.
4. Check that the bingo and casino licences both read Active.
5. Open the domain list for account 57924 (opens in a new tab) and confirm kittybingo.com is marked Active.
6. Finish on the regulatory actions tab to see any published sanctions.

Searching by domain is the safer habit, because many unrelated companies use similar bingo names. Our guide on how to check a casino licence decodes the status, activity and domain fields one by one.

Kitty Bingo regulatory record

No regulatory actions were listed against Rank Interactive (Gibraltar) Limited when we checked on 20 October 2026. The register only lists formal outcomes against the current licence holder, so it won't necessarily show matters involving the companies that ran Stride's brands before the move. For how the Commission sanctions online operators generally, see Gambling Commission fines.

Deposits, limits and safer gambling at Kitty Bingo

As a British licensee, Kitty Bingo's operator must ask you to set a financial limit before your first deposit, a rule in force since 31 October 2025. Lowering a limit takes effect straight away. Our page on deposit limit rules explains how increases are handled.

Other protections follow the same pattern across all British sites: credit cards can't be used, you can't reverse a withdrawal back into your balance, and the operator must tell you how well your money is protected if the company fails, under the player funds protection rules. If gambling starts to cost more than you planned, GAMSTOP (opens in a new tab) lets you block every licensed site, and the National Gambling Helpline on 0808 8020 133 is free and open all day and night.

How Kitty Bingo compares with other UK bingo and casino sites

Kitty Bingo is a mid-sized brand inside one of Britain's biggest land-based gambling groups. Compared with an independent bingo site, the main difference is scale: shared payment systems, a shared compliance team and a long list of sister brands. Compared with a casino-first brand, the main difference is the bingo lobby and community chat. If you want to weigh the two styles, our bingo vs slots comparison explains how the costs per hour differ.
