Bets.io is a gambling operator that has been live since 2021, long enough to count among the more established crypto gambling sites still trading under their launch-era name. The company behind it has changed more than the brand has: since launch, the operation has passed through three named corporate entities and moved its licence from Curaçao to Anjouan.
What the platform is actually like to use — payouts, game library, promotional terms — is covered in our Bets.io Casino review, and the betting side gets its own assessment in the Bets.io Sportsbook review.
Who Operates Bets.io
The licence seal on bets.io resolves to a live entry on the Anjouan Gaming Board's verification register, which names Tessera Limited SRL as the company behind the domain. The register lists a registered address at LY Center, Los Yoses, Calle 39, San José, Costa Rica, and shows licence ALSI-202410047-FI2 — issued by the Offshore Finance Authority of the State of Anjouan and supervised by Anjouan Licensing Services Inc. — as valid for bets.io. The site's terms separately name Xyrona Limited, a company registered in Cyprus, as the brand's payment agent.
Ownership and Licensing History
Bets.io launched in 2021 under Bets Entertainment N.V., a Curaçao-registered company that took its gaming authorisation from Gaming Services Provider N.V.'s master licence 365/JAZ — the sublicence arrangement most Curaçao crypto casinos relied on at the time.
By 2024 the corporate picture had shifted. In May of that year, Australia's communications regulator ACMA published formal-warning notices over bets.io naming two entities: Bets Entertainment N.V. and Techno Wave Systems SRL, a Costa Rica-registered company (registration no. 3-102-961721) that several industry databases also recorded against the brand's Anjouan licence. That same licence number, ALSI-202410047-FI2, now appears on the Anjouan register under Tessera Limited SRL. Anyone verifying the site's terms today will find Tessera Limited SRL as the counterparty, not either earlier company.
