What Is an iGaming Licence and Why Should Operators Obtain It?

27 december 2022
Author: James Burton

An online gambling licence is a significant part of any entertainment project. Obtaining such a permit is vital for every entrepreneur, and there is a certain process behind it.

Important Information about Licences

iGaming licence: general information

Usually, this permit is defined as an official document that allows the business entity to legally perform operations in the online gaming industry.

This includes projects with such entertainment as:

This permission is given for a certain period and requires specific payment. It can only be provided after a thorough check of the business.

After obtaining a licence, the organisation can:

  • establish a site that allows visitors to participate in casino and betting activities, performing transactions with fiat or crypto money;
  • purchase solutions from major suppliers and developers;
  • create a financial account for profit savings;
  • collaborate with influential processors of transactions;
  • have all the operations performed legally;
  • become a trustworthy operator that players gravitate towards.

Regulations and Control Boards

A variety of established rules is important to ensure the honesty of the business. They are included in the law and are expected to be complied with if the organisation plans to receive a licence. Most of the time, rules are slightly different across all jurisdictions, but their main essence is the same.

For example, the core regulations may include:

  • measures against money-laundering operations;
  • transparency and fairness of all services;
  • ban on minors;
  • clearness of the payouts;
  • immediate measures during signs of addiction;
  • portraying the regulator's logo;
  • service policies, etc.

In case the rules are violated, there will be consequences in a form of enforcement. The measures are usually taken by official regulators, with support from the police and law. Usually, a country's government is very strict on those who do not abide by the rules.

A clear violation will usually result in:

  • a fine;
  • removal of the licence;
  • sanctionary measures;
  • arrest;
  • criminal consequences.

Most of the time, the operator will not be able to receive any other permits in the future, and it will tarnish their reputation.

Each issuer of a licence has a special group of people that watch over all the entrepreneurs that operate under its permit. Their job is to make sure no rules are violated, give out official documents, and take care of all the arising problems. They can work under the name of a commission, board or association.

The controllers usually check on the existing rules and issue updates on them when there is a need to do so in a current industry climate. For the majority of the time, these boards are controlled by the government, with the country's ministries overseeing them.

Steps to Obtain a Gambling Licence

Gambling licence: steps for obtaining

The criteria for receiving a permit are different depending on the state However, the most popular of them are:

  • involving a supplier of services;
  • establishing a local company;
  • providing personal documents, such as passports and resumes, for all the most important representatives of the project;
  • compiling a business strategy, which describes key customer base, financial details, place of establishment, type of activities, employee information, etc.;
  • applying by filling out a special form;
  • paying all the necessary fees;
  • opening an account at the bank;
  • signing contracts with content providers;
  • going live in a jurisdiction;
  • supporting the activity by performing all the necessary obligations, such as sending regular reports.

Pricing and Other Details

The cost of a licence is dependent on the jurisdiction where the organisation wants to obtain it. For example, applying for a permit from Curacao is cheaper than contacting officials from Malta.

Some brands that have a larger budget prefer to invest money in expensive certificates. Meanwhile, others start with the less costly ones and eventually update them.

Any licence is a legal document, which means the enterprise will need to officially comply with all of its criteria to continue maintaining this ownership.
