Thrills Casinohas left the UK — what that means for you.

The UK exit

Thrills Casino is not a brand a UK player can sign up to today. As of 4th June 2026 the site is inaccessible from the UK, and its remaining focus is Scandinavian rather than British. That is the single fact most “is Thrills Casino still going?” searches are circling around — the original consumer-facing brand has stepped back from the GB market.

The operator behind Thrills is Zecure Gaming Limited, a company with a history that runs from GiG through to the Betsson group. A market exit of this kind is an ordinary commercial decision: a group consolidates its brands, retires some, and concentrates its UK presence on another. It is not, in itself, evidence of wrongdoing. But for a player it has a hard practical consequence — there is no original Thrills site to deposit into, and any site that looks like one needs scrutiny before anything else.

The licence belongs to Rizk, not Thrills

Here is the detail that catches people out. Zecure Gaming does hold a Gambling Commission licence — account 56427, registered on the public register with no sanctions recorded against it. That licence is real and current. The catch is what it covers: under that account, Zecure Gaming operates Rizk Casino, not Thrills.

So a search that turns up “Zecure Gaming has a UK licence” is technically accurate but easy to misread. The licence does not retroactively make a UK-facing Thrills site licensed, and it does not mean a “Thrills” domain you find today is operating under it. The brand that the 56427 licence actually authorises for the UK is Rizk — which is a separate entry on our register, with its own complaint record. If you want the operator’s current UK product, that is where the licence points, not at anything wearing the Thrills name.

What the thin review record shows

Thrills Casino carried a Trustpilot score of 1.9 out of 5 when we recorded it on 4th June 2026. We are going to be blunt about that number: it rests on just 13 reviews. That is a tiny base — far too small to treat as a reliable verdict on an operator. One or two strongly worded reviews move a score that size dramatically, and a sample this thin says more about how little current activity the brand has than about systemic behaviour.

For what it is worth, the themes reviewers report cluster around rigged-game perception, bonuses that were not granted, and unexplained account closures. We record those because they are part of the public record, not because 13 reviews establish a pattern. Treat the figure as a footnote, not a finding. The headline here is not the score — it is that the brand has exited, and the real risk has shifted to whatever now trades on its name.

The lookalike-domain warning

This is the part that matters most for your money. With the original brand gone from the UK, lookalike domains have appeared that trade on the recognition of the “Thrills” name — among them thrills-casino.co.uk and thrillcasino.uk. A familiar name on a casino site is not the same thing as the original company being behind it.

The rule to carry away is simple: any “Thrills” site accepting UK deposits today is not the original brand. The original is not taking UK players. So if a site under that name lets you register and deposit from the UK, it is by definition something else — and you have no way of knowing who is behind it until you check the licence. We document this same dynamic across the register, from Casino Calzone to Maria Casino: a retired brand’s name becomes a magnet, and the name is the only thing the new site shares with the old one. Before you trust any Thrills-branded domain, run the two-minute licence check against the exact domain in front of you.

Is Thrills Casino legit?

The honest answer is: the original Thrills Casino was a real, operator-backed brand, and it is now closed to UK players — so the more useful question is not “is it legit?” but “what is the site I’m looking at?”. The original is gone from the GB market; there is nothing to sign up to. That part carries no scam allegation from us.

The risk is entirely downstream of the closure. If you land on a live “Thrills” site that accepts a UK deposit, you are dealing with a lookalike, and a lookalike has to earn trust from scratch — starting with whether it appears on the Gambling Commission register under the exact domain you are on. We have placed this entry under Closed in UK precisely because the value to you is not a payout verdict on a dead brand, but a warning about the live domains wearing its name.

Had dealings with Thrills? Do this

1. If you had funds when the brand closed: check the operator’s closure terms for how balances were handled, and if a card deposit was never returned, raise a chargeback enquiry with your bank. Screenshot any account records you still have before access disappears.
2. If you deposited recently on a “Thrills” lookalike: treat it as a deposit at an unlicensed site, not a dispute with the original brand. Your strongest route is a bank chargeback — the full recovery guide is here.
3. Report a UK-facing lookalike to the Gambling Commission (unlicensed operation) and, if you lost money, to Action Fraud. Where and how to report.
4. Ignore unsolicited “recovery” offers. Posting publicly about a lost deposit is exactly how recovery scammers find targets — nobody legitimate contacts you first and asks for a fee.
