The Company Behind FairPlay

FairPlay is run through an international group of companies, not through one legal entity based in India.

Public regulatory records have linked FairPlay’s operations to companies registered in Curaçao, the United Arab Emirates and Malta, including Play Ventures N.V., Dutch Antilles Management N.V., Fair Play Sport LLC, Fairplay Management DMCC and Play Ventures Holding Limited.

This set-up is typical of international online gaming businesses, where corporate, technical and management roles are often split between separate entities.

Anyone researching the FairPlay company should keep in mind the difference between the brand as a whole and the individual legal entities connected with specific parts of its operations.

FairPlay’s Official Website and Online Channels

Online access has been at the core of FairPlay from the start. The platform was designed as a digital-first service, with sports and gaming content playing a major role in the user experience.

The official FairPlay website is one of the main places where users can find information about the brand, how to access the platform and which services are offered.

Users may also come across third-party sites, review pages and other online sources that use the FairPlay name. It is therefore important to rely on verified information when judging whether a website or communication channel is actually connected to FairPlay.

Online channels and access conditions may change as market and regulatory conditions evolve.

Who Runs FairPlay?

Who owns FairPlay is one of the most common questions people search for about the brand.

India’s Directorate of Enforcement (ED) has publicly described Krish Laxmichand Shah as a “key person behind Fairplay”. Official documents have also linked him to companies involved in FairPlay’s operations in several countries.

Calling any one person the “owner”, however, may oversimplify the picture. FairPlay has been linked to several legal entities, and ownership, management and operational roles can vary from one company and jurisdiction to another.

For this reason, we use the wording found in available official records instead of naming a single individual as the registered owner of every entity connected to the brand.

Krish Shah’s Link to FairPlay

Searches for “Krish Shah FairPlay” usually concern the publicly reported connection between Krish Laxmichand Shah and the development and running of the brand.

According to information released by India’s Directorate of Enforcement, Krish Shah was identified as a key person behind FairPlay. The agency also linked him to companies registered in Curaçao, Dubai and Malta and stated that much of the operational activity was managed from Dubai.

Public records also name other individuals in connection with technical, financial and operational roles.

Because these references come from regulatory investigations and legal proceedings, we present them in that official context. They are allegations and investigative findings, not final court rulings.

Global Footprint

FairPlay has grown as an international online brand rather than a platform aimed at just one country.

Companies publicly linked to the brand are registered in Curaçao, Dubai and Malta, and this international set-up supports different parts of the business, its management and the running of the platform.

The online gaming industry changes quickly, and corporate structures, market availability and regulatory rules can shift over time. Keeping information accurate and up to date is therefore an important part of how FairPlay communicates with its audience.

FairPlay and India

India has been central to FairPlay’s visibility, largely because of the country’s passion for cricket, sport and online entertainment.

The rules for online gaming in India have changed considerably in recent years.

The Promotion and Regulation of Online Gaming Act, 2025 created a new national framework for online gaming, and the accompanying Promotion and Regulation of Online Gaming Rules, 2026 took effect on 1 May 2026.

Under this framework, online money games are prohibited, along with offering, facilitating, advertising or promoting them.

In light of these changes, we do not repeat outdated claims that real-money gaming is legal or available everywhere in India. Current laws and regulatory requirements should always be taken into account.

Our Commitment to Accurate Information

Online gaming moves fast. Laws change, technology develops and platform availability can differ from one jurisdiction to another.

We believe information about FairPlay should reflect these changes clearly and accurately.

In practice, this means separating the brand from individual companies, avoiding outdated statements about legal status, and presenting information about publicly named individuals and regulatory proceedings in their proper context.

FairPlay aims to communicate clearly about the brand, its online presence and the environment it operates in.

What FairPlay Stands For

• Digital-first approach. FairPlay was built around online gaming and sports entertainment.
• Technology and accessibility. The platform focuses on easy online access and modern digital infrastructure.
• User experience. Clear navigation, reliable features and accessibility shape how FairPlay presents its services.

FairPlay Today

FairPlay continues to evolve as an international online entertainment brand, shaped by technology, market conditions and changing regulation.

Its presence in several jurisdictions reflects the global nature of online gaming, while its profile in India has made questions about the FairPlay company, its owner and Krish Shah’s role increasingly important for users seeking reliable information.

We aim to cover these topics clearly and accurately, based on the latest publicly available information, while continuing to adapt to the changing digital and regulatory landscape.
