Why gambling licensing is needed

The logical question that arises in every entrepreneur who has decided to open an online casino, why do you need a gambling license. Is it possible to do without a license for online casino?

So, let’s answer the first question and briefly mention the advantages of gambling licensing:

1. Geographic freedom. Licensing in a selected jurisdiction implies that the computing facilities and the legal entity will be registered and physically located in that particular country. But this is where the ubiquity and power of the Internet comes in to help businesses. The operator can choose to operate in any region.
2. A business reputation with a plus sign. A license confirms the safety and reliability of the resource and its compliance with international norms. Leading developers of software for online casinos prefer to work exclusively with legal sites.
3. Confidence on the part of the players. The legitimacy of the platform’s activities creates a positive image and inspires trust among visitors.
4. No problems with financial transactions. An online casino cannot operate without opening bank accounts and connecting payment systems. This would be problematic, if not impossible, without a licence.
