Batery licence status
Batery states on its site that it operates under an international gaming licence. Curaçao is the jurisdiction most commonly cited for it. It does not hold a licence from any Indian authority.
We don't reproduce licence numbers or company names here. They can change when an operator renews or moves its licence, and an outdated number copied from a review is worse than none. The reliable source is the current footer of the official site, cross-checked against the regulator's register.
How to verify the licence yourself
- Open the official Batery siteUse a trusted link such as our verified link or the installed app, not a link from a chat group.
- Scroll to the footerLicensed operators show the licensing authority, the licence holder and usually a clickable licence seal at the very bottom of the page.
- Click the licence sealA genuine seal opens a validation page hosted on the regulator's or its validation service's domain, not a static image or a page on the casino's own domain.
- Compare the detailsCheck that the domain listed on the validation page matches the address in your browser, and that the licence number and status (active, not suspended) are shown.
- Cross-check the public registerSearch for the licence number or operator on the regulator's official register and confirm the same details appear there.
Good sign: the seal leads to a live page on the regulator's domain listing the exact site you are on. Bad sign: the seal is just a picture, or the validation page lists a different domain.
What an offshore licence protects, and what it does not
What it generally covers
- The operator has passed basic checks to obtain a licence
- Games are expected to use certified random number generators
- Anti-money-laundering and age checks (KYC) are required
- There is usually a complaints route to the licensing body
What it does not give you
- Protection under Indian consumer law
- Legal status in India
- A strong, fast dispute process like top-tier regulators
- Any guarantee that your bank will process payments
An offshore licence is a minimum standard, not a safety net. It beats an unlicensed site, but in a dispute you'll be dealing with a regulator abroad, in English, and outcomes can take a long time. So start small, verify your account early and test a withdrawal before playing with larger amounts.
The legal context in India
In August 2025 India passed the Promotion and Regulation of Online Gaming Act. It prohibits offering online money games, advertising them and processing payments for them, while supporting esports and free-to-play social games. Offshore operators are not licensed under Indian law, and authorities can order internet providers to block access to their sites.
For players this means:
- a foreign licence does not make an operator legal in India;
- check the current national rules and the rules of your state before you register;
- banks and payment apps may decline transactions linked to betting;
- site addresses may change after blocks, which creates room for fake copies.
This page is general information, not legal advice. Laws and their enforcement change; if you are unsure about your situation, consult a qualified lawyer.
Red flags of fake Batery sites
Because offshore sites change addresses, scammers build copies that look identical. Watch for these signs:
- the licence seal is a flat image that does not click through to a validation page;
- the domain in the browser differs from the one on the licence validation page;
- you were sent the link by a stranger on Telegram, WhatsApp or Instagram;
- someone offers to “deposit for you” or asks you to pay to a personal UPI ID;
- bonuses far larger than the real offers (Batery's are 150% up to $1,500 plus a $5 free bet for sports, or 100% up to $1,000 plus 100 free spins for casino);
- anyone asks for your OTP or password, including people claiming to be support.

FAQ
Is Batery licensed?
Batery states on its site that it holds an international gaming licence; Curaçao is the jurisdiction commonly cited. You can verify the current details through the licence seal in the site footer.
Does the licence make Batery legal in India?
No. A foreign licence is not an Indian licence. Since August 2025 Indian law prohibits offering, advertising and processing payments for online money games, and offshore sites can be blocked.
Why don't you publish the licence number?
Licence details can change. The footer of the official site and the regulator's register are always more current than any review, so we show you how to check them instead.
Who do I complain to if I have a dispute?
Start with Batery's support and keep written records. If that fails, the licensing body listed in the site footer usually has a complaints procedure. Indian consumer forums are unlikely to help with an offshore operator.
