Becric, checked: who it serves, what it claims and where the law stands

Becric is an offshore betting and casino site at becric.com, built for Indian players and still taking sign-ups on 11 November 2026, the day of our check. Its registration form offers three country codes (India, Pakistan, Bangladesh), and wallets come in rupees, Pakistani rupees or taka. The footer claims licences from Curaçao and the Philippines, yet no company or licence number appears anywhere. In India, running or advertising a real-money betting service became a criminal offence on 1 May 2026. This page comes from an independent guide; Becric neither wrote nor approved it.

Readers from Vietnam, Brazil or the US also land here. Becric’s form has no country code for them, so this report deals with India first and Bangladesh second.

Is Becric legal in India?

Not in any form. The Promotion and Regulation of Online Gaming (PROG) Act, 2025 prohibits online money games whether they rest on chance, skill or a mix. Its rules came into operation on 1 May 2026. The government’s explainer sets out the penalties, where a court may order jail, a fine or both:

Offence under the Act	Prison	Fine
Running or facilitating a money-game service	Up to 3 years	Up to ₹1 crore
A second or later such offence	3 to 5 years	₹1 crore to ₹2 crore
Promoting a money game	Up to 2 years	Up to ₹50 lakh
Handling the payments (banks, payment systems)	As for running one	As for running one

That list is aimed at operators, promoters and payment firms. The explainer names no penalty for the person who bets. Players still carry the risk, though. A UPI or card payment to a site like this can be refused or reversed, and the site can disappear behind a blocking order under the IT Act; even before the new law, the government counted 1,524 blocked gambling and betting websites and apps between 2022 and June 2025. Some states had acted on their own earlier: Tamil Nadu’s 2022 Act bans online games of chance played for money, and Telangana amended its Gaming Act in 2017 to reach online play.

Becric licence: real or fake?

Real in the plain sense. The site works, wallets hold money, and bonuses are credited under published rules. A licence is a separate question. The footer carries a Curaçao Gaming Authority logo and a PAGCOR logo, and the site’s code contains a single sentence on the subject: “{merchant} is licensed by the Curacao Gaming Authority and the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR).” The brand name is slotted into that placeholder when the page loads, and logos and banners come from a file server on another domain, ticric.com. That is the mark of a white-label platform: one software stack, several brand names painted on top.

We went through the Curaçao regulator’s online gaming licence register of 5 November 2026. It lists holders by company and licence number. No entry contains “Becric”, and since Becric names no company, there was nothing else to look up. (The authority closed its online portal in October 2026 and promised another way for operators to prove a domain is licensed, so a missing seal on its own proves little. A missing company name is harder to excuse.) And even a genuine Philippine licence would not make betting legal in India.

Why this matters: a Becric complaint has no official address. With no named licence holder, there is no regulator you can ask to step in.

Who owns Becric?

The site does not say. We found no owner, address, company number or head office on any page, and the domain’s WHOIS entry hides the registrant. What Becric does publish is an affiliate programme at aff.becric.com, whose contact is a WhatsApp number with the Philippine +63 prefix, an Instagram account called becric.india and a Facebook page. Stories online about a Becric founder, office or brand ambassador have nothing behind them on Becric’s own site; we saw no ambassador named there.

What you can bet on: sports, exchange and casino

The front of becric.com is a fixtures strip. On our visit it was mostly football, under a banner for the 2026 Women’s Big Bash League; cricket markets come and go with the tournament calendar. The menu leads to three betting products:

• the main sportsbook, pre-match and live, singles and combos;
• a second sportsbook labelled Saba;
• an exchange that opens only when your active wallet is in rupees (“Exchange is available only when your currently selected wallet uses INR”, in Becric’s words).

The Becric casino draws on 62 game studios, 55 of them for slots and 7 for live tables. The lobby’s first row is called Flight and holds Spribe’s Aviator, NFT Aviatrix and a second game called Aviator from a studio listed as Aviator Studio; the Aviator and game lobby report shows how to tell them apart and why predictor apps are a con. A VIP ladder from VIP0 to VIP11 (“Cosmic Deity”) drives most repeat bonuses, which the promo code page lists with their wagering.

Curious about a current deal anyway? See today’s offer. It is a paid referral, the brand behind it is not necessarily Becric, and India’s Act covers every betting site equally.

Bangladesh: the Gambling Prevention Act 2026

Becric takes +880 numbers and taka wallets, so Bangladeshi readers need their own warning. Parliament passed the Gambling Prevention Bill, 2026 on 30 June 2026, replacing the Public Gambling Act of 1867. The same day, an amendment struck section 20, the old offence of gambling in cyberspace, out of the cyber security law, because the new Act now covers that ground. The penalties as reported by UNB and bdnews24:

• online or remote gambling: prison up to 5 years and/or a fine up to Tk 1 crore;
• running online betting or acting as a bookmaker: up to 7 years and/or up to Tk 5 crore;
• traditional gambling: up to 2 years and/or up to Tk 2 lakh.

According to AGBrief, the Act took effect on 1 July 2026 and its offences are non-bailable. The official text on bdlaws.minlaw.gov.bd would not load for us, so read these figures as reported, not quoted. Unlike India’s law, this one reaches the player.
