Bangladesh-marketed casino/sportsbook with a disputed ownership claim - a reviewer alleges ties to an operator accused of defrauding players via mirror sites
Not available lawfully hereIs Betlily legal in Bangladesh?
No. Real-money gambling is banned in Bangladesh. Under the Cyber Security Ordinance 2025, in force since 2025, Betlily cannot lawfully offer you a welcome bonus here, and you cannot lawfully claim one.
Creating, operating or promoting an online gambling platform is a criminal offence in Bangladesh, punishable by up to two years in prison or a fine of one crore taka. The government is further tightening the ban. source
Any Betlily bonus you see advertised for Bangladesh is offered from an offshore site operating against local law. Your payments can be blocked, your account can vanish with a mirror domain, and no Bangladesh regulator can help you recover funds. We therefore show no offer and no sign-up link on this page.

Pros
- Some Trustpilot reviewers report fast deposits and withdrawals
Cons
- A serious, specific reviewer allegation disputes the operator's stated ownership, linking the real owner to fraud-accused mirror-site operators - unverified but concerning
- Multiple complaints describe verification delays exceeding 19 days with no support progress
- Operates in a legal gray zone under Bangladesh's ban on online gambling
- No welcome bonus - moot given the legal restriction in Bangladesh
Our verdict
Betlily presents itself as operated by Lily Entertainment Limited under an Anjouan gaming licence, but we found a specific and serious allegation on Trustpilot that directly disputes this: a reviewer claims the actual owner is an individual linked to other casino sites accused of defrauding players through mirror websites. We could not independently verify this claim, but given its seriousness and the direct conflict with the operator's own stated ownership, we think it deserves to be stated plainly rather than left out. On the operational side, the picture is genuinely mixed: some Trustpilot reviewers describe frustrating verification delays stretching past 19 days with no progress from support, prompting accusations of scamming, while others report fast, smooth deposits and withdrawals. Given Bangladesh's ban on online gambling, Betlily operates there in a legal gray zone regardless of its offshore licence. Combined with the unverified but serious ownership allegation, we would recommend significant caution with Betlily and suggest independently researching its ownership before depositing any money.
How we rated it
Sportsbook & casino (36%)5
Casino and sportsbook marketed to Bangladesh per operator materials; specific market breadth not independently confirmed.
Support & reliability (18%)3
Multiple Trustpilot complaints describe documents stuck 'under verification' for over 19 days with no progress, leading reviewers to call the platform scammers - though other reviewers report fast deposits/withdrawals, including one processed without full verification.
Bonuses & value (18%)2
No regulated welcome bonus - online gambling is banned in Bangladesh, so no consumer-protection framework applies to any offer there.
Trust & licensing (27%)2
A serious, specific allegation from a Trustpilot reviewer claims the site's real owner is Glenn Rellum, linked to other casino sites accused of defrauding players via mirror websites - we could not independently verify this, but it directly conflicts with the operator's stated ownership (Lily Entertainment Limited) and warrants real caution.
Quick facts
| Owner | Stated as Lily Entertainment Limited (London, UK); a Trustpilot reviewer alleges actual ownership by Glenn Rellum, linked to fraud-accused mirror-site operators - unverified |
| Licence | Anjouan (Comoros) Gaming licence, per operator marketing |
| Serious documented allegation | A reviewer alleges the true owner is linked to other sites accused of defrauding players and using mirror websites |
| Complaint themes | Documents stuck 'under verification' 19+ days with no support progress; conversely, some fast withdrawals reported |
| Bangladesh legal status | Online gambling is banned in Bangladesh; Betlily operates there in a legal gray zone under its offshore Anjouan licence |
How we verified this
The Lily Entertainment Limited ownership claim and Anjouan licence are per the operator's own marketing, not independently verified against a primary registry. The Glenn Rellum ownership allegation and associated fraud/mirror-site accusations are attributed to a specific Trustpilot reviewer's claim, not independently corroborated, and are reported as an allegation requiring further verification rather than established fact. The verification-delay and fast-withdrawal complaint themes are read directly from Trustpilot.

About Betlily
Betlily is a casino and sportsbook marketed to Bangladesh, with the operator's own materials naming Lily Entertainment Limited (registered in London, UK) as owner, holding an Anjouan (Comoros) Gaming licence. Bangladesh itself bans online gambling, meaning Betlily operates in a legal gray zone there regardless of this offshore licence. We are naming the most serious finding directly: one Trustpilot reviewer specifically alleges that Betlily's real owner is an individual named Glenn Rellum, who reportedly also owns other casino sites accused of defrauding players and using mirror websites to evade accountability - a claim that directly conflicts with the operator's own stated ownership and one we could not independently verify, but which is serious enough to disclose plainly rather than omit. Separately, multiple Trustpilot complaints describe account-verification documents stuck in review for over 19 days with no progress from support, leading several reviewers to call the platform scammers. Other reviewers, however, report fast deposits and withdrawals, including one case where a withdrawal was processed even without full account verification - a genuinely mixed picture on the operational side, layered on top of the more serious unverified ownership allegation.
