01 · The site

A properly licensed Danish site

Denmark licenses its online gambling. The regulator is called Spillemyndigheden, the Danish Gambling Authority. Jackpotbet A/S held one of those licences.

It ran an online casino and a sportsbook at jackpotbet.dk. It was a real Danish company under real Danish rules.

Public reviews of the site run up to October 2025. That tells us it was still taking real money from customers only months before it failed.

02 · The shutdown

A rescue attempt that failed

On 22 April 2026 the company entered a court process called reconstruction. In Denmark that is a formal attempt to save a company before it goes bust.

The site stopped working the same day. The regulator published a notice telling players what had happened. It named the firm handling the case, the law firm DLA Piper in Denmark, and gave contact names.

The rescue did not work. On 18 June 2026 Jackpotbet A/S was declared bankrupt. Its casino and betting licences ended as a result.

No reason was ever given beyond the wording of the court filing. That filing said only that the aim was to stop the company going bankrupt. It did not say why the company was in trouble.

03 · The money

Your balance is a claim in a bankruptcy

This is the important part and it is not simple.

When a licensed company goes bankrupt, your account balance does not vanish. It becomes a debt the company owes you. You have to ask a court-appointed official for it. That official is called a trustee.

Danish players were told to file a claim with the trustee at DLA Piper. That is a form-filling process, not a withdrawal button.

You might get all of it. You might get some of it. You might get none. It depends on how much money is left, and who else the company owes. There is no promise. Nobody has published how much was owed to players in total.

This point is being argued about in Denmark more widely. There has been a separate court case in Denmark. It asks a simple question. In a bankruptcy, is a player balance the player money or the company money? That case is about a different company. We mention it only so you know the question is live.

If a licensed gambling company goes bankrupt, do not wait. Find the trustee named in the regulator notice and file your claim straight away. Late claims are often worth nothing.

How we verified this record

Every claim on this page is graded by how firmly we could check it. Confirmed means we saw it in the operator’s own notice or in a document that cannot easily be faked. Observed means we saw it ourselves on the live site or domain on the date given. Unconfirmed means it has been reported but we could not prove it.

ConfirmedThe company entered reconstruction on 22 April 2026 and the site stopped workingPublished by the Danish Gambling Authority in its own notice, which also named the trustee firm.
ConfirmedJackpotbet A/S was declared bankrupt on 18 June 2026 and its licences endedReported by trade press covering the Danish decision.
ConfirmedPlayers were told to claim their balances through the court-appointed trusteeSet out in the regulator notice.
ObservedThe site does not serve a working productChecked on 10 September 2026. The address returned a refusal rather than a page. That is consistent with the regulator statement, but it is not proof on its own.
ObservedThe site was still trading in late 2025Public reviews of it run up to October 2025.
UnconfirmedWhy the company failedNo reason was published beyond the standard wording of the court filing.
UnconfirmedHow much players were owed, and how much they got backNo figures have been published.
What we checked, and what we did not. We took the reconstruction date, the site status and the trustee details from the Danish regulator own published notice. We confirmed the bankruptcy date and the end of the licences from trade coverage of the decision. We loaded the address ourselves on 10 September 2026 and recorded what came back, and we say plainly that a refusal is not proof of a dead site. We checked the dates on public reviews to establish when it was last trading. We did not contact the trustee or the company. Last independently checked: 10 September 2026.
