Cons
- Closed to new customers since 1 October 2025
- Operator fined GBP 170,000 by the UK Gambling Commission in July 2025 for unfair terms, AML control failures, and safer gambling deficiencies
Our verdict
Fafabet has been closed to new customers since 1 October 2025, and we want to be direct that this followed a GBP 170,000 UK Gambling Commission fine against operator Taichi Tech Limited just months earlier, for unfair account-closure terms, anti-money laundering control failures, and safer gambling deficiencies - a serious regulatory record, not just a routine platform migration. There is no active product to evaluate. Players should not attempt to deposit at Fafabet and should look to properly licensed, currently operating alternatives instead.

About Fafabet
Not applicable - Fafabet, launched in 2021 and operated by Taichi Tech Limited, has been closed to new customers since 1 October 2025. We want to name a more serious matter directly rather than describe the closure as purely a technical platform migration: just months before, in July 2025, the UK Gambling Commission fined Taichi Tech Limited GBP 170,000 under section 121 of the Gambling Act for a discretionary term allowing Fafabet to close customer accounts or forfeit winnings without clear justification, along with anti-money laundering control failures and safer gambling deficiencies. Existing customers were directed to withdraw remaining balances by 31 October 2025.
