FortuneJack has run continuously since 2014, but the licence standing behind it today isn't the one the brand launched on. In 2024, operation of the site moved to a new operator, PlayWave SRL, registered in Costa Rica, under an Anjouan Gaming Board licence, No. ALSI-202411021-FI1 — replacing FortuneJack's original Curaçao registration.
That move puts FortuneJack in the second-largest jurisdiction group in our tracked base (51-casino snapshot, September 2026). Re-checked against the regulators’ registers, Anjouan accounts for 15 brands — among them FortuneJack, LuckyWins, Rollero, BC.Game and Orozino — against 22 running on Curaçao. It's a real regulatory family in this market, not a fringe outlier, but its complaint route differs from the one FortuneJack left: Anjouan sends a player to the operator first and only then, after 30 days, to an approved alternative-dispute-resolution provider.
| Period | Jurisdiction | Operator on record | Public registry check |
|---|---|---|---|
| Before 2024 | Curaçao | Original Curaçao registration (entity not specified in our records) | cga.cw |
| From 2024 | Anjouan (Comoros) | PlayWave SRL, Costa Rica, Licence No. ALSI-202411021-FI1 | Anjouan Gaming public register (term 4 November 2024 – 3 November 2026; re-check due after that date) |
Source: our tracked database (51-casino snapshot, September 2026) (licence record), confirmed in the Anjouan public register; fortunejack.com's own terms pages could not be loaded in September 2026, so operator terms were not re-read on its live pages.
What actually changes for a Canadian player here isn't the games or the interface — it's who you'd be filing a complaint against, which country's law governs that dispute, and how much a regulator requires the operator to disclose. The Curaçao Gaming Authority (CGA, formerly the Gaming Control Board) keeps a public register searchable by licence number, at cga.cw — it is the register FortuneJack's original licence belonged to, and it is still there — what moved is FortuneJack: its current licence is issued in Anjouan, so a Curaçao lookup is no longer where this brand would be found. Anjouan does run a comparable lookup: its public register lists PlayWave SRL under licence ALSI-202411021-FI1, with fortunejack.com among the registered domains, for a term that runs to 3 November 2026 — no renewal was recorded in the register as of 18 September 2026, so the entry is worth re-reading after that date.
The honest caveat: the site’s own pages could not be loaded in September 2026, so the licence details above come from the Anjouan register rather than the operator’s live footer. The register is the stronger source of the two, but bonus and payout terms could not be re-read on fortunejack.com itself, which is why our record for FortuneJack still carries a confidence: low flag — a statement about our access, not a claim that the licence itself is suspect. Our ratings methodology explains how a licence-confidence flag like this feeds into scoring, and switching jurisdictions is a reasonable prompt to re-read current terms rather than assume older reviews still apply; anyone whose sessions need a check-in can find resources on our responsible gambling page.
