The Betting Gaming & Lotteries Commission (BGLC) is Jamaica’s independent statutory regulator for the gambling industry, established in 1975 under the Betting Gaming & Lotteries Act. For decades, we have upheld the highest regulatory standards to ensure fairness, transparency and responsible participation across all forms of betting, gaming and lotteries.
Guided by our TRAIT values—Teamwork, Respect, Accountability, Integrity and Transparency—we are committed to strengthening public trust and promoting responsible industry growth.
The BGLC works to create a safe, reputable and well-regulated gaming environment where operators can thrive sustainably, players can participate with confidence, and government and society are shielded from illicit and unfair practices.
