Fines and regulator actions
Our data lists no fine against Blue Boulder Limited, the company named in the verajohn.com footer. It also lists none against BRAGI Services Limited, which holds the Swedish licence for veraandjohn.se and verajohn.se. Across LCKY Group companies we hold 3 actions. Two are Swedish and name sister company Glitnor Services Limited, the company behind LuckyCasino: a SEK 28 million fine with a warning in March 2025 for duty-of-care failures, and a SEK 400,000 fine with a warning in May 2020 for compliance failures. The one outside Sweden came in June 2025, when Spain's DGOJ fined FPOOCL, S.A. €105,000 for breaching responsible-gambling and player-protection duties. The firm admitted liability and paid early, which reduced the fine.
