Licensing and corporate services
The company, the licence and the bank account are the slowest parts of a launch. We run them in parallel with the platform build: entity incorporation, licence applications and renewals, payment acquiring and banking introductions, compliance documentation and ongoing regulatory reporting support, coordinated with licensed counsel in each jurisdiction.
11 routes we work with.
Which route fits depends on your target markets, business model, payment rails and appetite for timeline. We map the options in scoping and confirm them with counsel before anything is filed.
Anjouan is typically used for crypto-friendly setups, with the caveat that the Union of the Comoros disputes its licensing authority's standing and banking access is limited; we weigh it against Curaçao with counsel. Costa Rica is a corporate base with data-processing permits rather than a gaming licence, and Belize paused new online licences in June 2025 while its 2026 Act sets up a new commission. Regulatory summaries are orientation only; requirements change and we validate them with you and licensed counsel during scoping.
From incorporation to the first regulatory filing.
We handle the coordination, the documentation and the platform evidence. Licensed counsel in the jurisdiction gives the legal advice and signs where a lawyer must sign.

Most of the technical questionnaire is already answered.
Regulators and acquirers ask the same questions about hosting, money, identity and player protection. The platform answers them with features that exist today, not roadmap promises.
Hosting and security
AWS with Cloudflare WAF, DDoS protection and CDN; PostgreSQL and Redis; admin 2FA; role-based permissions enforced server-side; Activity Log for every admin action.
Money handling
One double-entry ledger, exact to the cent math, retry-safe grants and payouts, verified payment callbacks, redeem queue with statuses and permissions.
Identity and geo
ID and selfie verification with liveness, device fingerprinting for fraud scoring at registration and login, MaxMind second opinion, country and state controls with GPS re-check.
Player protection
Deposit, loss, wager, single-bet and session limits, reality checks, cooling off and self-exclusion from one day to permanent, consent matrix and one-click unsubscribe.
Game fairness
Provably fair Originals with commit-reveal seeds and an in-browser verifier; GameBridge Studios PAR sheets and machine certificates bound to definition hash and engine version.
Business model controls
Sweepstakes, real-money or crypto-ready is a brand setting that gates AMOE and cashier mapping, so a second market does not mean a second platform.
Route, entity, dossier, filing.
Licensing timelines are set by regulators and banks, not by us. We start in week zero so the platform is ready when the licence is.
- Step 1Route selection
Markets, business model, verticals and payment rails narrow the 11 routes to one or two. Counsel confirms fit and requirements.
- Step 2Entity and banking
Incorporation, directors and ownership documentation, bank and acquiring introductions run in parallel with platform configuration.
- Step 3Application dossier
Policies, platform description, RNG dossier, hosting and data-protection answers assembled with counsel and filed.
- Step 4Follow-up, approval, renewals
Regulator questions answered to closure. After approval, a renewals and change-notification calendar with reporting support from the platform.
