Duelbits overview
Duelbits is a sportsbook listed in the SharkBetting Bookmaker Atlas. The brand was first registered online in 2021, giving it roughly 5 years of operating history. Ultimate ownership traces back to Mr Jonathan Swerdlow through a 2-step corporate chain. It holds 1 active licence, from Curacao. KYC requirements are light-touch, with limited documentation requested upfront. Public hosting infrastructure is classified as tier-1 hosting (Cloudflare, Inc.).
Its SharkBetting Trust Score v2 sits at 55 out of 100 (high confidence, mid band). Worth knowing before depositing: its strongest licence is a light-touch one by our tiering, which carries weaker dispute recourse than a top-regulator licence. Public review aggregators report 3.5 stars on an open consumer-review platform (4 reviews) and 5.7/10 on a third-party dispute-mediation service. The UK Gambling Commission imposed a GBP 316,000 fine on the operator in 2023.

Frequently asked questions
Is Duelbits safe?
Duelbits has a Trust Score of 55/100 with high data confidence. It rates in the middle of the atlas: licensing 30/100, reviews 57/100, corporate 80/100, security 43/100. No active red flags are recorded against the brand.
Who owns Duelbits?
Duelbits is operated by TGP Europe Limited and ultimately owned by Mr Jonathan Swerdlow. The licensee is incorporated in England & Wales (company number 15611265). Disclosed corporate chain: TGP Europe Limited -> Mr Jonathan Swerdlow. Verified ownership matters because the parent company holds the regulatory licence, custody of player funds, and final responsibility for dispute resolution; corporate transparency is one of six components in the Trust Score v2 rubric.
Is Duelbits licensed?
Duelbits appears in regulator registers classified by the Trust Score v2 scorer as Curacao (tier-3). The licensing component scores 30/100 in Trust Score v2. Tier-1 status means strict KYC, AML, segregated player funds, and mandatory dispute resolution. Tier-2 covers Gibraltar, Isle of Man, Alderney, Kahnawake, and KSA-NL. Tier-3 covers Curacao-style light-touch frameworks.
What do third-party review platforms say about Duelbits?
Duelbits appears on multiple independent review aggregators that measure different aspects of player experience. An open consumer-review platform, which collects open consumer reviews, shows 3.5/5 across 4 reviews captured from a Wayback snapshot of duelbits.com. A third-party dispute-mediation service, which mediates player complaints with operators, scores 5.7/10. Open consumer-review platforms reflect sentiment from any consumer who chooses to post; dispute-mediation services reflect how an operator behaves when disputes are escalated, so the two metrics measure different things.
Where is Duelbits available?
Duelbits accepts players from 3 jurisdictions per atlas data, including China, Pakistan, India. Availability lists are derived from public terms-of-service pages and licence registers; geofencing rules can be tighter than what is publicly stated, and accounts opened from restricted IPs are usually voided. Always verify your specific country on the official site before depositing.
Is Duelbits's site secure?
Duelbits scores 43/100 on the Trust Score v2 security component, indicating a mid-tier security posture. Signals include: Mozilla Observatory grade D+; HSTS enabled; CDN: Cloudflare (+3); hosted on tier-1 infrastructure (Cloudflare, Inc.). The security component blends HTTP-header hardening (HSTS, CSP, X-Frame-Options), TLS configuration, DNS hygiene (SPF, DKIM, DMARC), CDN/WAF presence, and hosting reputation; it does not assess the operator's internal security or breach history.
