Why You Need a Gaming License
A license is what turns a casino project into a business that partners will work with.
- Game studios only supply licensed operators
- Banks and payment providers require a license before opening accounts
- Players trust licensed brands, which helps conversion and retention
- Affiliates and advertisers prefer to promote licensed casinos
- A license gives you a clear legal basis and protects your business
Regulator: Comoros (Autonomous Island of Anjouan)
Anjouan Gaming License
One offshore license that covers the main online gambling verticals, popular with new brands and crypto-first casinos.
Verticals covered
Why operators choose Anjouan

One of the best-known international licenses, now issued under Curaçao’s reformed regulatory framework.

Regulator: Malta Gaming Authority (MGA)
Malta Gaming License
A tier-one EU license for operators and suppliers that want to build long-term credibility and reach regulated European markets.
License types
Why operators choose Malta
- Strong reputation with players, banks and partners
- B2C gaming service and B2B critical supply licenses

Regulator: Tobique Gaming Commission (Canada)
Tobique Gaming License
A North American license covering sports betting, casino and lotteries, with categories for both operators and suppliers.

Costa Rica: Company Setup, Not a Gaming License
Costa Rica has no dedicated online gambling license and no online gambling regulator. Some international operators run a Costa Rican company with local registrations and a municipal permit for data-processing activity, while holding their gaming license elsewhere.
Rules and costs change, so we confirm the current position for your project before you commit.
What the setup usually involves
- A Costa Rican company with a registered address and local legal representative
- Municipal permits and tax registrations for data-processing activity
- No access to players resident in Costa Rica
- Banks and payment providers may not accept it in place of a gaming license
We usually pair a Costa Rican structure with a recognized license such as Anjouan, Curaçao, Malta or Tobique.

Which license is right for me?
It depends on your target markets, the verticals you offer, your budget and how quickly you want to launch. We compare the options with you on a discovery call.
How long does it take to get a license?
Timelines vary by jurisdiction and by how complete your documents are. We give you an estimate once we know your plans.
Can one license cover casino and sportsbook?
Several jurisdictions, including Anjouan, Curaçao and Tobique, offer one license that covers multiple verticals. Malta uses separate license types.
Do you help after the license is issued?
Yes. We help open bank and processing accounts, connect payment methods and launch your casino on our platform.
Can I start before my license is issued?
In some cases you can prepare your platform, games and payments in parallel, then go live once the license is granted.
