Interwetten is one of Europe’s oldest online bookmakers (founded 1990); Betmaster is a sportsbook and casino brand operated by BM Solutions Limited. Both operating companies hold GRAI remote betting licences, so for an Irish punter the regulatory position is the same.
Licensing: Both Are on the GRAI Register
| Brand | Licensed company | GRAI licence | Valid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Interwetten | Interwetten Gaming Limited | GRAI-1365-RB-26-0001 | 16 October 2026 – 15 October 2029 |
| Betmaster | BM Solutions Limited | GRAI-0735-RB-26-0001 | 1 July 2026 – 30 June 2029 |
We checked both entries on the official GRAI register on 11 November 2026. The register lists the licensed company, not the brand, so search for the company name.
What Is the Same at Both
Because both hold a GRAI remote betting licence, the same Irish rules apply to each:
- Deposit limits: GRAI licensees must apply the deposit-limit rules set under Irish regulations.
- National self-exclusion: licensees must integrate with the National Gambling Exclusion register.
- Complaints: a dispute that cannot be resolved with the operator can be escalated to the GRAI.
- Credit card ban: licensees may not accept credit cards for gambling.
What the Licence Does Not Tell You
Both licences cover remote betting only. The GRAI has not issued any gaming (casino) licences yet; they are expected in 2027–2028, so neither brand’s casino product is GRAI-licensed.
A licence also says nothing about prices. We have not price-tested these two bookmakers against each other, so this page does not rank them on odds, margins or withdrawal speed. Compare the price on the market you actually want to bet before choosing.
