Play 971 appears on UAE regulator’s online gaming licensee list
Play 971 launched in the UAE and described itself as the country’s first online gaming site licensed by the General Commercial Gaming Regulatory Authority. The regulator added the site to its internet gaming and sports wagering licensees on 28 November, while the report said its rollout might be a limited trial and that an official launch was reportedly planned for the first quarter of 2026.
The listing signals a licensed online gaming offering in the UAE, although the site’s launch status remains unclear.
