The Isle of Man Gambling Supervision Commission (GSC) is the regulatory authority responsible for overseeing all gambling activities within the Isle of Man, including both land-based and online operations. Established in 1962, the GSC ensures that gambling is conducted fairly and transparently, free from criminal influence, and that players receive their winnings promptly.

The Commission’s key responsibilities include:

• Licensing and Regulation: Issuing licenses to gambling operators and ensuring compliance with the Isle of Man’s stringent regulatory standards.
• Player Protection: Safeguarding players’ interests by enforcing measures that promote responsible gambling and protect against fraud.
• Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Countering the Financing of Terrorism (CFT): Implementing robust AML/CFT policies to prevent illicit activities within the gambling sector.
  The GSC operates under the framework of the Online Gambling Regulation Act 2001 (OGRA), which provides a comprehensive legal basis for the regulation of online gambling activities.
