An honest and trustworthy gaming business starts with obtaining the correct gambling license. Whether online or offline, it allows running a legal business and warrants the operator’s reliability and commitment to fair gaming. A license is also an indicator of transparency in business operations and security of the gaming software offered to players.

It is impossible to set up a merchant account in a bank without a proper gambling license, and as such the license is considered one of the most important aspects for any gambling business.

Gambling legislation and regulations vary greatly from country to country, and in some countries from state to state. There are many jurisdictions all over the world that issue gambling licenses. Such licenses are issued only after the online casino business meets the requirements of the chosen jurisdiction.
