Multi-Jurisdiction Expansion
A licence structure that works cleanly in one jurisdiction can create conflicts — corporate structure, tax exposure, or licence-condition overlap — in a second, if the expansion isn't assessed before the application is filed.
Operators considering a second or third jurisdiction come to this with an existing licence, an existing corporate structure, and a specific market they want to reach. We assess how the two fit together before recommending a path.
Because we work across jurisdictions rather than specialising in a single regulator, we can flag conflicts — a licence condition in one jurisdiction that complicates an application in another — that a single-jurisdiction advisor may not see.
What we do
- Feasibility assessment comparing target jurisdictions against the operator's existing structure and product
- Comparative analysis of licence types, costs, and timelines across candidate jurisdictions
- Corporate structuring advice to avoid conflicts between existing and new licence conditions
- Coordinated application support across jurisdictions with overlapping requirements
- Ongoing advice on maintaining compliance across multiple regulatory regimes simultaneously
Who this is for
- Licensed operators assessing a second jurisdiction for market access
- Groups consolidating operations across jurisdictions after growth by acquisition
- Operators asked by a payment or platform partner to hold an additional licence
Relevant for these jurisdictions
Jurisdiction
United Kingdom
The UK Gambling Commission (UKGC) operates one of the most demanding licensing regimes in the sector, combining a strict fit-and-proper test with an active enforcement record — a UK licence signals credibility, but it is also the jurisdiction where preparation gaps are least forgiven.
Jurisdiction
Malta
Malta remains one of the most established EU-based licensing jurisdictions for iGaming, with a single-licence structure covering both B2C and B2B activity through the Malta Gaming Authority — but its reputation for maturity comes with a correspondingly thorough fit-and-proper and AML review.
Jurisdiction
Curaçao
Curaçao replaced its long-standing master licence system with the Landsverordening Openbare Kansspelen (LOK) on 24 December 2024, moving licensing authority to a single regulator and materially raising the documentation bar for new and existing operators alike.
