The GRAI register, last updated on 20 October 2026, lists 40 business-to-consumer licensees holding 42 licences: 37 remote betting (RB), 4 remote betting intermediary (RBI) and 1 in-person betting (IPB). These are the figures from our latest read on 6 November 2026. We have not re-read the register for this note, so the next check is due on the publication day.

Forty licensees hold 42 licences because two licensees hold two licences each. One licence is an in-person licence and is not used on this site.

**In short:** 40 licensees, 42 licences, register last updated on 20 October 2026.

This is the first snapshot on this site, so there is no earlier value to compare. Every later note adds a row and keeps this one.

**In short:** no earlier snapshot exists yet; the comparison starts with the next check.

## Who this affects

- **Readers** who want to confirm that an app's operator holds a licence. Use the [licence check steps](https://beforeyouinstall.com/guides/check-a-betting-app-licence/).
- **Our pages** that list licensees or count them, such as the [app availability table](https://beforeyouinstall.com/data/app-availability-by-licensee/).
- **Licence-number rules**: the [display rules](https://beforeyouinstall.com/guides/licence-number-display-rules/) explain what an app must show.

**In short:** the count matters to anyone matching an app to a licence.

## What changed on our pages

- Nothing is rewritten yet. The next register read replaces the figures above.
- The [change log](https://beforeyouinstall.com/data/changelog/) records each update with its date.
- Facts are logged under the [register and store data protocol](https://beforeyouinstall.com/guides/store-and-register-data-protocol/).

**In short:** figures here move only when the register is read again.

## Check it yourself

1. Open the [GRAI licence register](https://www.grai.ie/register/licence-register).
2. Filter by "Business to Consumer".
3. Count the records and read the "last updated" date.

Licence details load by script, so a plain page request may return no rows. Use a browser. Background: [licensing since 1 July 2026](https://beforeyouinstall.com/guides/grai-licensing-from-july-2026/).

**In short:** the register itself is the only source for these figures.

## Caveats

- The register updates irregularly. It has no fixed schedule that we know of.
- The "Domain Names" field is empty for all 40 records. Match the licence number shown in the app instead.
- One licence number appears in the register with a digit missing. We record it as published.
- Licences run for three years, for example 1 July 2026 to 30 June 2029.

**In short:** the figures are a dated snapshot, not a live count.
