Some websites are claiming they are licensed by the Malta Gaming Authority (MGA). But the MGA says that’s not true. This Malta Gaming Authority warning is aimed at protecting online users from unlicensed gambling services.

• The MGA has officially denied any connection with 17 websites related to the “GOD55” brand. These include domains like god55partnership.com, god55sg3.org, and god55.today. The full list features regional variations targeting users in Singapore, Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam.

• According to the MGA, any claim by these sites that they are licensed by the Maltese regulator is “false and misleading”. This public statement aims to clear confusion caused by these sites referencing Maltese gaming licences. Consumers should treat such claims as untrue.

• The authority reminds users not to use services unless the provider is confirmed to be licensed by the MGA. Verifying a gaming operator’s licence is essential for legal and safety reasons. Unlicensed operators are not bound by Malta’s strict gaming regulations.

• Malta’s gaming framework includes legal safeguards meant to protect players. These include requirements around player funds, fair gaming, and responsible gambling. None of these are guaranteed when dealing with unlicensed sites.

• The MGA warns that using services from unlicensed operators exposes users to financial and personal risk. These services operate without regulatory oversight. “Transactions with such entities [are] risky for consumers,” the statement reads.
