"Most iGaming applications stall at the bank, not at the regulator."
We pre-qualify PSPs, acquirers and settlement banks before we file. Curaçao, Anjouan, MGA and Isle of Man — matched to the payments stack that will actually process your revenue.
How we work with igaming operators & suppliers.
Most iGaming applications stall at the bank, the PSP or the acquirer — not at the regulator. ASJ Group pre-qualifies the payments stack before we file, because a licence that cannot process revenue is a compliance cost with no offsetting business.
We work across B2C operator, B2B platform and supplier classes in MGA, Isle of Man, Curaçao (LOK), Anjouan, Gibraltar and Kahnawake — matched to the operator's markets, product mix and payments strategy.
Every engagement is director-signed, fixed-fee and includes the compliance framework, RG and AML manuals, technical documentation and post-licence readiness the regulator will actually inspect.
What we've seen go wrong.
- Applying to a jurisdiction whose PSPs will not process for the operator's target markets
- Choosing MGA on prestige when Anjouan or LOK would service the same customer base at a fraction of the cost and timeline
- Under-scoping the RG and AML framework, then rebuilding it under regulator pressure post-authorisation
- Filing before the technical stack is certified — and losing months to iterative regulator Q&A
The shape of the work.
Every engagement is fixed-fee, director-led, and quoted in writing before any work begins.

Typical jurisdictions
Questions we hear from igaming operators & suppliers.
- Which jurisdiction should I pick?
- It depends on target markets and payments profile. MGA for EU-facing regulated markets; Isle of Man for a British-adjacent premium licence; Curaçao under LOK for global operators outside the EU; Anjouan for cost-sensitive launches with clear PSP fit.
- How long does an MGA licence take?
- Six to nine months to first-stage approval, plus a technical audit before go-live. A well-prepared file materially reduces regulator Q&A cycles.
- Can I accept crypto?
- In Curaçao under LOK and in Anjouan, yes with AML controls. MGA and Isle of Man are more restrictive; we map product and payments to jurisdiction together.
