Curaçao Gaming Authority registry entry for Usoftgaming N.V. licence CGA/2025/1353/1345

Table of Content

Hustles Casino is operated by Usoftgaming N.V. The Curaçao Gaming Authority records Usoftgaming N.V. under B2C licence CGA/2025/1353/1345, and its official certificate page showed the licence as Active on 25 September 2026. A separate search of the Gambling Commission business register on 25 September 2026 found no operating-licence entry for Usoftgaming N.V. or Hustles Casino. Those are two distinct register findings. For Great Britain – England, Scotland and Wales – the Gambling Commission states that remote operators providing gambling to consumers generally need its operating licence. Northern Ireland has a separate gambling framework, although advertising remote gambling to Northern Ireland consumers has Gambling Commission licensing implications. The two register findings describe licensing status only; they do not by themselves determine every legal question or the quality of the casino product.

Two register checks

The Curaçao licence is active; no Gambling Commission entry was found

The clearest way to read Hustles’ licensing position is to keep the two regulator checks side by side. The official Curaçao record identifies Usoftgaming N.V., company number 141305, as a B2C licensee under number CGA/2025/1353/1345. The registry entry lists an issue date of 9 April 2026 and an expiry date of 9 October 2026, while the Curaçao Gaming Authority certificate page showed the licence status as Active during the current check.

The Gambling Commission register produces a different result. In the current full business register, the alphabetical section covering U entries ends one page with Ubet, UK businesses, Ultimate, Under Orders, Unique, Unison and United entries. The following page begins with Unity, Univam, University, uPredict and Urmston, then moves to Vale. Usoftgaming N.V. does not appear in that alphabetical position, and no Hustles Casino trading-name entry was found in the register.

A no-hit means only that the named operator or brand was not found as a Gambling Commission operating licensee in the register checked. It does not answer every legal question, describe every jurisdiction or determine the status of unrelated product features.

The primary-source links are the Curaçao Gaming Authority certificate service, the Gambling Commission business register, and the Commission’s published guidance on remote gambling and regulatory remit. A register result is stronger evidence for licence status than an affiliate review, forum post or promotional badge.

Great Britain

England, Scotland and Wales sit inside the Gambling Commission remote-licensing framework

The Gambling Commission describes its remit as Great Britain, which means England, Scotland and Wales. Its remote-sector guidance states that a business based abroad still needs a Commission licence if it provides remote gambling facilities to consumers in Great Britain. Its remote casino licensing page makes the same point for casino gambling supplied online or by other remote communication.

This is why a Curaçao licence and a Gambling Commission licence should never be presented as interchangeable. They are permissions issued by different authorities for different regulatory frameworks. A Curaçao record can establish that Usoftgaming N.V. holds the named Curaçao licence. It does not create a Gambling Commission licence, just as a UK register search does not cancel a Curaçao licence.

The current register picture is precise rather than binary: Usoftgaming N.V. has an active Curaçao B2C licence, while no Gambling Commission operating-licence entry was found for Hustles Casino or Usoftgaming N.V. Readers can compare that licence position with the Commission’s Great Britain requirements without assuming the two regimes are equivalent.

For licence checks, the date matters as much as the name. The Gambling Commission register is a living database, and the Curaçao licence shown here has a dated term. A reader revisiting this page later should repeat both checks rather than treating a September 2026 result as permanent. That is especially important when a licence approaches renewal or when an operator changes its legal entity, trading name or regulatory arrangement.

Northern Ireland

Northern Ireland is not simply another Great Britain licence case

Northern Ireland needs its own paragraph because the Gambling Commission explicitly says it does not regulate the provision of remote gambling there. Gambling activity in Northern Ireland sits under a separate framework, centred on the Betting, Gaming, Lotteries and Amusements (Northern Ireland) Order 1985 as amended, including changes made in 2022.

That does not make the Gambling Commission irrelevant to every remote-gambling activity involving Northern Ireland. The Commission also states that advertising remote gambling to consumers in Northern Ireland is an offence under the Gambling Act 2005 unless the business holds a Gambling Commission licence. This is a narrower advertising point, not a statement that the Commission regulates all remote gambling activity in Northern Ireland in the same way as it does in England, Scotland and Wales.

Territory matters in UK gambling regulation. “Great Britain” and “United Kingdom” are not always interchangeable, and treating them as identical can misstate the Gambling Commission’s remit.

How to read a register

A register check proves a licence record, not every feature of a casino

Regulator registers are useful because they answer a narrow question with primary evidence: does this legal entity appear under a licence, and what does the regulator record about that licence? For Usoftgaming N.V., the Curaçao register supplies an active licence and licence number. In the Gambling Commission register checked on 25 September 2026, neither Usoftgaming N.V. nor the Hustles trading name was found as a licensee.

What the register does not establish is whether every separate brand feature exists. Game providers, payment categories, bonuses, mobile-browser support and account-verification procedures are different factual questions with different source types. Those topics are documented elsewhere on this site from the relevant brand pages and supporting sources.

The distinction matters because licence status, payment availability and game availability answer different questions. A game lobby cannot establish regulator status, and a licence record does not establish which payment methods or games are currently available.

Limits of a no-hit

What the Gambling Commission no-hit does and does not tell you

On 25 September 2026, the Gambling Commission register contained no operating-licence entry for Usoftgaming N.V. or Hustles Casino. That absence does not explain why an entry is missing, rule out every unrelated legal entity, or determine how every individual player’s circumstances should be treated.

It also does not erase the operator’s Curaçao record. The Curaçao Gaming Authority evidence remains a separate primary-source result for Usoftgaming N.V. The two findings can coexist because they concern different regulators. A no-hit in one register does not mean that a licence recorded by another regulator does not exist.

The reverse is also true. A Curaçao licence is not a Gambling Commission licence and does not automatically place a brand inside schemes that depend on Commission licensing. Named UKGC protections or licensed-status links depend on the Commission’s own framework rather than an overseas licence.

Account implications

Licence status is separate from registration and KYC

Hustles has an active account flow, and the site’s KYC policy sets out identity and address checks. Those operational facts do not change which regulator appears in a licence register. If you want the account journey itself, use the registration and login; if you need the document requirements and withdrawal-check relationship, use the dedicated Hustles KYC verification page.

The same logic applies when a verification request occurs during a cashout. KYC can affect account access or withdrawal processing without changing the licence record. These are separate issues: a casino can have detailed identity checks even when its licence jurisdiction is outside the Gambling Commission system.

Payments

Payment availability does not substitute for a regulator entry

Hustles publishes multiple payment categories, and the GBP banking options page explains the main methods available. The withdrawal and payout guide separately explains what to check in the cashier before a cashout.

Neither a familiar payment brand nor support for GBP establishes a Gambling Commission licence. Payment rails answer a commercial and technical question; the regulator register answers a licensing question. This matters because readers often use local-looking payment options or currency support as a proxy for regulatory status when the two are not equivalent.

Bonuses

Promotion terms and licence rules should be compared without being merged

Hustles has its own promotion terms, while Gambling Commission licensees are subject to separate Great Britain rules for incentives. These apply in different scopes, even when a brand term and a UK licensed-market rule use similar concepts such as wagering requirements. The current Hustles promotions page covers the operator-specific offer terms.

A promotion value cannot prove a licence, and a licence framework does not determine a brand’s current offer. Compare the operator’s promotion terms with the regulator’s market rules while keeping their scopes separate.

Mobile access

A working mobile site shows compatibility, not UKGC status

Hustles is designed for mobile-browser use. That tells you the service can be reached through a phone or tablet browser; it does not tell you which authority has issued the operator’s licence. Browser versus native-app access is a separate question from regulator status; the Hustles mobile casino guide covers that device distinction.

This is another reason not to use a single overall label. A brand can have one documented licence jurisdiction, a separate mobile-access fact and separately documented payment or game features. Combining all of those into one word would discard useful information rather than clarify it.

How to recheck

How to repeat the Hustles licence check yourself

  1. Identify the legal operator name shown by the brand. For Hustles, the operator is Usoftgaming N.V.
  2. Open the Curaçao Gaming Authority registry or certificate service and search the operator or licence number. Confirm the legal entity, licence type, number and current status.
  3. Open the Gambling Commission business register and search the operator name, brand trading name and domain where the register supports those fields.
  4. Read the regulator’s scope guidance separately. A register hit or no-hit should be interpreted within the territory the regulator actually covers.
  5. Record the date of the check. Licence registers can change, and an old review article should not override a newer regulator record.

This method gives you a reproducible path from operator name to regulator record. It also makes it easier to spot when a licence badge or third-party page does not match the current register.

When a licence is close to a listed expiry date, rely on the regulator’s current status rather than an older article. In this case, the Curaçao registry supplies the licence details and dates, while the certificate service showed the licence as Active on 25 September 2026.

When comparing another review with the current regulator records, start from the legal operator name rather than the casino brand alone. A brand can change presentation while the licence belongs to a company name, so matching the entity, licence number, jurisdiction and check date provides a more reproducible result. It also avoids treating payment support, mobile compatibility or a promotional offer as indirect evidence of local licensing. For a later recheck, keep the regulator URL and the date beside the entity name so the result can be compared with a newer registry entry.

The useful distinction

What Hustles’ Curaçao licence means beside the UKGC framework

Two licence facts should remain separate. Usoftgaming N.V. holds Curaçao Gaming Authority B2C licence CGA/2025/1353/1345, which the official certificate showed as Active on 25 September 2026. On the same date, no Gambling Commission operating-licence entry was found for Usoftgaming N.V. or Hustles Casino in the business register. For readers in England, Scotland and Wales, that sits beside the Commission’s rule that remote operators serving Great Britain generally require its licence; Northern Ireland has a different regulatory scope. Those facts provide a clearer basis for further checking than an overall label, while the casino’s games, payments, bonuses, KYC and mobile access remain separate questions supported by their own evidence.
