Betcina operates under Anjouan licence ALSI-202511042-FI2, held by Costa Rican entity 3-102-935992 SRL and issued 30 November 2025¹ . The licensee operates two domains: betcina.com (the brand front for this profile) and lotovegas.com (sister property). Both domains failed to resolve from our test location at the time of writing. The licence remains valid on the Anjouan register and the brand may be in launch, maintenance, or geo-restricted state. This is a profile, not a tested review.

Test-time accessibility

When we attempted to load betcina.com over HTTPS from our test location, the domain did not resolve. The same was true for the sister property lotovegas.com. There are several explanations consistent with this observation:

Geographic restriction at the DNS or routing level. Some operators enforce restrictions at the network layer rather than the application layer; from a restricted region, the domain simply does not resolve.
Pre-launch state. A November 2025 licence is recent. The operator may have completed regulatory steps but not yet exposed a public lobby.
Maintenance or service interruption. A transient outage at the operator’s hosting or DNS provider would produce the same observation.
Operator has chosen not to operate the brand under this domain. Similar to the Bety case but with no current marketplace listing observed.

We cannot distinguish among these from our test location alone. The licence record provides no additional context beyond “valid”.

The licensee structure

3-102-935992 SRL is a Costa Rican Sociedad de Responsabilidad Limitada holding the Anjouan licence for two domains. Two-domain licensees sit between focused single-brand (Forzza, Casindi, Papawins) and multi-brand stables (Fenix’s 6, Spinorhino’s 8). The pattern is closer to defensive brand-cluster registration than active multi-brand operation. The fact that neither domain resolves at test time leaves us with no way to distinguish active from dormant.

What the Anjouan licence actually covers

Betcina is licensed by the Anjouan Gaming Authority, the regulatory body established on the autonomous island of Anjouan (one of the three islands that make up the Union of the Comoros in the Indian Ocean). Anjouan's modern iGaming licensing framework was relaunched in 2023–2024 by Anjouan Licensing Services Inc., the exclusive licence administrator, and has been adopted at scale since by operators that previously sat under Curaçao's old master-licence system. The operator's licence number is ALSI-202511042-FI2, listed as valid on the official Anjouan licence register.

What the licence does

Operator vetting at issue. The framework requires KYC on beneficial owners and directors, clean criminal-record checks, source-of-funds documentation, a written business plan, and AML/KYC/responsible-gaming policies before the licence is issued.
Game-software certification. Operators must use certified RNG technology, with provider certificates submitted as part of the licensing pack.
Segregated player funds. Operators must hold player balances in accounts separate from operating funds. This is the single most consequential player-protection clause in the framework.
Formal complaint process. Operators must publish a complaint-handling procedure and respond to player disputes within the timeframes defined by the regulator.
Public register and seal verification. Every licensed operator appears on the official register with licence number, issue and expiry dates, status, and authorised domains. Operators may display a seal whose ID resolves to the register entry in real time.

What the licence does not do

No binding third-party adjudication. Anjouan provides a formal complaint process between player and operator, but it does not offer the binding ADR (alternative dispute resolution) tier that regulators like the UKGC or MGA mandate. If the operator refuses to pay, the regulator can revoke the licence — but does not order the operator to pay the player.
No deposit caps or central self-exclusion. Unlike MGA, UKGC, KSA, or Sweden's Spelpaus, Anjouan does not run a cross-operator self-exclusion register or impose mandatory deposit limits. Self-exclusion is a per-operator setting; players who want cross-operator protection have to rely on GamStop / Cruks / Spelpaus where applicable.
Disputes from excluded territories are not mediated. The Anjouan Gaming Board explicitly excludes mediation for players based in jurisdictions the operator was supposed to block. If you played from a restricted country, the regulator will decline the case.
No public dispute decisions database. There is no published archive of operator complaints and rulings comparable to the UKGC's enforcement-action page or the MGA's player-complaint summaries. Track-record information has to be reconstructed from third-party sources (Trustpilot, AskGamblers, casino-forum threads).
Limited recourse outside the licence. Anjouan's jurisdiction is the autonomous island, not the Comorian Union. Comorian union-level law treats most gambling as prohibited, which creates a structural mismatch: the licence is real and the regulator acts, but it operates entirely within the island's autonomy carve-out.

How this compares to other offshore licences

Anjouan sits in the same operational tier as the new Curaçao LOK framework (issued directly by the CGB since 2024, replacing the old master/sub-licence system) and Tobique (Canadian First Nation regulator that took over from Kahnawake for many crypto operators). All three offer real but light-touch licensing: operator vetting at issue, mandated segregated funds, formal complaint handling, no binding third-party arbitration, and minimal ongoing player-protection infrastructure compared to MGA, UKGC, or KSA.

In practical terms: an Anjouan licence means the operator has been vetted by a regulator that exists, will respond, and can revoke. It does not mean a player will be made whole by the regulator if the operator decides not to pay. Players who want that should play at UKGC, MGA, or comparable-tier operators, accepting the friction (KYC at every turn, withdrawal holds, deposit limits) that comes with that protection.

What we can analyse without lobby data

When operator-side content is not available, the analytical signal we can still extract comes from:

Licence-record metadata. Issue date (recent: 30 November 2025), licence type (-FI2 variant, the same as Casindi and several other operators), licensee corporate form (standard Costa Rican SRL), sister-property count (1 sister domain).
The brand naming. “Betcina” is an unusual coinage; “Lotovegas” combines lottery and Vegas references. Both names suggest a Latin-American or Spanish-language market targeting. Neither maps to a well-known existing brand we recognise from regulated markets.
Time-of-licensing context. November 2025 was a peak issuance period for the Anjouan framework. Several operators in our coverage were issued in late November 2025 (Intercasino, Tikalcasino, ibexbet, Betcina). This was a wave; the cohort dynamics matter less than each operator’s own follow-through.

What we cannot analyse without lobby access: bonus terms, payment rails (the operator may not publish these on their landing even when reachable; for Betcina we don’t have a landing), game provider mix, withdrawal terms, KYC behaviour. The “Not disclosed” entries throughout this profile’s stats reflect that.

How Betcina compares to peers

Compared to operators that did load at test time (Olymp Casino, DEP Casino, Spinorhino in this batch; most of yesterday’s batch), Betcina is harder to evaluate honestly because we cannot see what it publishes. Compared to other unreachable operators in this batch (w11.io, chancebit.com, the partially-blocked spinzz88, ibexbet, reybets), Betcina sits in the same access-friction category but with a slightly larger licensee footprint (2 domains) than single-brand peers.

Our analytical position

Betcina is an Anjouan-licensed operator with a current licence, a two-domain licensee structure, and zero consumer-side accessibility from our test location at the time of writing. The combination is consistent with either a deliberate geo-restriction posture (positive if intentional), a pre-launch state (neutral), or an effectively dormant brand (negative). We cannot tell which from our test position. Score reflects: current licence and listed (neutral baseline), unverifiable operator-side claims (neutral negative), sister-property also unreachable (mild negative because that reduces our ability to triangulate operator behaviour from a related property).

Score: 5.8 / 10, the score is structurally penalised by the verification gap. If Betcina becomes reachable from our test location and surfaces published terms, the score is provisional and will revise.

Frequently asked questions

Is Betcina currently operating?

The licence is valid on the Anjouan register but the betcina.com domain did not resolve from our test location at the time of writing. The sister property lotovegas.com also did not resolve. The operator may be geo-restricting at the network layer, in pre-launch, in maintenance, or effectively dormant. We could not determine which from a single test location.

Who is 3-102-935992 SRL?

A Costa Rican Sociedad de Responsabilidad Limitada holding the Anjouan licence ALSI-202511042-FI2. The licensee holds two domains: betcina.com and lotovegas.com.

Is the Betcina licence valid?

Yes. ALSI-202511042-FI2 is listed as valid on the Anjouan Gaming Authority register, with an issue date of 30 November 2025 and expiry of 29 November 2026. Licence validity reflects regulatory status, not necessarily consumer-side accessibility.

Should I deposit at Betcina?

We would not deposit at any operator we cannot reach to inspect. If Betcina becomes accessible from your location and you can review the published T&Cs, payment rails, and KYC policy before depositing, you are in a better position to evaluate than we are from a non-resolving DNS state.

When this might not apply to you

Your location may be one Betcina serves. If the domain resolves for you, you can verify the operator-side facts (bonus terms, payment rails, KYC threshold) that we could not. This profile gives you the licence-record context regardless.
