Do they share a licence or company?

No. They run under different companies (LC International Limited and Derby (SA/NV)) and share no licence in our data.

What this means for players

Different owners mean separate accounts, separate terms and separate support. A self-exclusion at one does not cover the other, unless you use a national scheme that covers both.

Does a self-exclusion at Ladbrokes cover Ladbrokes BE?

Not through one national scheme. Ladbrokes is covered by GamStop, as it is licensed in Great Britain (UKGC licence). Ladbrokes BE holds no licence with a national self-exclusion scheme in our data. An exclusion set only in your Ladbrokes account may not cover Ladbrokes BE.
