Ladbrokes and Neds sit under one licence holder in our register notes of 6 November 2026: Entain Group Pty Ltd, licensed by the Northern Territory Racing and Wagering Commission. This page puts both brands against the same safer-gambling tools and records where their wording matches. No page has been read yet, so every result shows not confirmed.

## One licence holder, two brands

The register notes show ladbrokes.com.au and neds.com.au in the same record. A shared licence holder does not mean the two responsible-gambling pages say the same thing.

Where the wording of both brands is the same, we record it once. Where it differs, each brand gets its own cell.

**What this shows:** two brands in one record still need two readings.

## Brand by brand

**Ladbrokes and Neds safer-gambling tools · source: each brand's responsible-gambling page, URLs to be recorded · checked 2026-11-13**

| Tool | Ladbrokes | Neds |
|---|---|---|
| Deposit limit (C05) | Not confirmed on 2026-11-13 | Not confirmed on 2026-11-13 |
| Time-out (C04) | Not confirmed on 2026-11-13 | Not confirmed on 2026-11-13 |
| Account closure | Not confirmed on 2026-11-13 | Not confirmed on 2026-11-13 |
| Reminders and activity statement (C07) | Not confirmed on 2026-11-13 | Not confirmed on 2026-11-13 |
| BetStop (C06) | Not confirmed on 2026-11-13 | Not confirmed on 2026-11-13 |
| Help line | Not confirmed on 2026-11-13 | Not confirmed on 2026-11-13 |

**What this shows:** a matching row would be merged into one entry; a differing row stays split.

## Regulator record

On 6 May 2026 ACMA announced that Entain, which runs Ladbrokes AU and Neds AU, gave an 18-month court-enforceable undertaking after more than 500 breaches of the BetStop rules.

This is a fact from the release, set out without comment. Read the release itself: [ACMA, 6 May 2026: Ladbrokes and Neds breach gambling self-exclusion rules](https://www.acma.gov.au/articles/2026-05/ladbrokes-and-neds-breach-gambling-self-exclusion-rules).

The undertaking does not tell you what either brand's page says about limits today. Only a page reading does.

**What this shows:** a regulator release is a dated record, and it sits beside the tool results rather than inside them.

## When this page would be merged

A brand page needs at least five distinct facts to stand alone. If the two responsible-gambling pages turn out to share almost all of their wording, this page is folded into the Entain profile, [Ladbrokes and Neds: twelve checks](https://bookiechecklist.com/ladbrokes-neds-checks/).

**What this shows:** thin differences are not padded into a page.
