A gambling company was fined £6.1 million for social responsibility and money laundering failings.

The Gambling Commission assessed In Touch Games – which operates 11 websites including bonusboss.co.uk, cashmo.co.uk and slotfactory.com – in March last year.

It is the third time the firm, based in Birmingham, has faced regulatory action. It paid a £2.2 million settlement in 2019 and received another £3.4 million fine and warning for further failures two years later in 2021.

Kay Roberts, executive director of operations at the Gambling Commission, said: ‘Considering this operator’s history of failings we expected to see significant improvement when we carried out our planned compliance assessment. Disappointingly, although many improvements had been made, there was still more to do.’
