Winzon Group’s licence revoked by Malta Gaming Authority

(AsiaGameHub) –   The Malta Gaming Authority has revoked Winzon Group’s operating licence, with the decision taking effect retroactively from March 11, 2026.

This action was carried out under regulation 10(2)(b) of Malta’s regulatory compliance framework. It is reported that Winzon ran multiple iGaming platforms including Comix Casino, though most of its sites are no longer active. Notably, even after the revocation, Comix Casino still claims it holds MGA licensing on its official website.

As part of its obligations under this order, Winzon must send an email notification and post a public notice on its website to all customers, informing them that its operating licence has been cancelled. The notice is required to stay posted for no less than thirty (30) days.

In accordance with Maltese Gaming Laws, Winzon must return all remaining account balances of verified customers to the corresponding customers starting on the date this order is issued. Winzon must provide proof of all account withdrawals (transaction records and bank-issued supporting documents) to ensure all funds are returned to customers on time.

As outlined in this order, even after the licence revocation, Winzon is still obliged to protect customer privacy and secure all customer data following its existing policies and all applicable data protection laws. Because Winzon failed to submit a post-shutdown plan, players will not receive information about how their data will be managed after the shutdown.

Additionally, Winzon must remove all indicators of MGA authorisation from all platforms and media, and may not present itself as a regulated gaming entity now that it no longer holds a valid gaming licence.

These enforcement measures also cover specific outstanding debts owed by Winzon. Winzon owes the MGA €46,693.23 for unpaid historical licensing and compliance fees, and has accumulated €147,080 in administrative penalties for multiple violations of MGA rules and regulations.

While no specific details of the violations alleged against Winzon have been released, the MGA has confirmed that these violations qualify as breaches of locally applicable laws and regulatory provisions. All of Winzon’s obligations remain in effect regardless of this order, and any failure by Winzon to comply with requirements or settle its outstanding obligations and debts may lead to further enforcement action.
