Malta
Gaming License:Malta
The island nation of Malta is a popular jurisdiction for online gambling and today the regulatory body (the Lotteries and Gambling Authority) is actively issuing licenses to new operators. Next, we will describe in detail the reasons for the attractiveness of the Maltese license.
What are the advantages of the Malta license?
European License
This license allows you to operate in any EU country where a separate national license is not required, providing greater access to the European Union market.
Player Confidence
Obtaining a license from an EU country increases player confidence due to the high standards of safety and regulation established in the European Union.
Cooperation with Payment Systems
The license from the EU opens the opportunity to cooperate with large international banks and payment systems, facilitating the processing of financial transactions.
Absence of Offshore Status
The country issuing the license is not an offshore zone, which adds legitimacy to your business.
Gambling Coverage
The B2C license allows a wide range of games to be offered directly to players, including various types of gambling.
