Remote gambling licenses are issued for a term of five years but can be renewed after the license’s expiration. Anyone can apply for a license, but the application can be declined because of numerous reasons like available technical infrastructure, person’s experience in the sphere, reputation, financial position, business plan, business structure, etc. The application process may take several months (2-6) and highly depends on provided documentation as it must meet all the regulations of the Licensing Authority.
Gibraltar typically offers a fully regulated gaming industry and has a stringent set of guidelines that any license holder is required to work according to. For example, advertising guidelines make licensees ensure that advertising and sponsoring activities somehow connected to gambling are truthful and accurate and are targeted only at adults in countries where such activities are not illegal. Licensees also need to ensure that the websites that are used for advertising or operating their gambling activities do not include links to irrelevant sites with immoral or violent content.
