Why the AFAB gaming license is the best option for gaming businesses in 2024

affordability


AFAB currently offers the most competitive prices on the market, surpassing even the Anjouan license, which is known for its affordability. The AFAB's extremely affordable pricing enables you to save funds and invest them in growing your iGaming business instead.

Fast and Simple Application Process

Obtaining an AFAB license is faster than any other gaming license worldwide, assuming prompt document submission by the applicant. The process could take as little as 10-15 business days, not counting document preparation time, making it ideal for entrepreneurs on tight schedules aiming for quick market entry.

Minimal Reporting Requirements

the AFAB license has fewer reporting requirements compared to other jurisdictions. This can reduce the administrative burden on operators, especially those with limited resources.

Legality and Reputation

The Philippines' respected WTO membership lends considerable credibility to the AFAB Gaming License, providing operators with the assurance they need to navigate the complex global iGaming landscape within a solid legal and regulatory framework.

LESS DEPENDENCE ON BANKING PARTNERS

The AFAB license includes comprehensive support such as providing licensees with global payment solutions. This significantly minimizes operators' dependency on banking partners, streamlining financial transactions for clients around the world.

Minimal Restricted Countries

The AFAB license stands out as the license with the least country restrictions out of any other licensing jurisdiction by only prohibiting offering services to the Philippines and the US, paving the way for your iGaming businesses global expansion. However, operators must still adhere to the laws and regulations of each target country.

Navigating the complex world of iGaming licensing can be daunting, especially for startups looking to make their mark. Many initially turn to well-known hubs like Curacao, the UK, Malta, or the Isle of Man, drawn by their established reputations. However, the journey towards obtaining a license in these jurisdictions often unveils a path filled with high costs, intricate processes, and lengthy timelines.


Why the Curaçao license is no longer the best option for igaming operators this 2024

Curaçao, recognized for its previously straightforward iGaming licensing process, encountered economic difficulties during COVID-19, leading to an overhaul in its gambling legislation as part of a bailout agreement with the Netherlands. In 2023, reforms were announced, including the establishment of the Curaçao Gaming Authority and a revamped licensing system now directly controlled by the government, replacing the previous model of master licensees granting sub-licenses. These changes, intended to improve standards and transparency, introduce significant uncertainties and complexities for applicants. The transition has been delayed, creating apprehension within the global gambling community about increased difficulties in obtaining a Curaçao license, signaling a shift from its reputation as an easy licensing jurisdiction and highlighting potential risks for future applicants. The Curaçao license used to be one of the easiest ones to get, and even though the changes are meant to improve the regulator’s reputation, they will most probably make the whole process more difficult for applicants.

what about the anjouan license?

As a result of Curaçao’s shifting regulatory landscape, attention initially shifted towards the Anjouan license as a favorable choice for iGaming operators, drawn by its straightforward application process and cost-effectiveness. However, the Anjouan license comes with significant limitations. For one, the Anjouan license restricts operators from conducting business in numerous countries, which poses a considerable drawback for those looking to reach a global market. Second, it comes with significant financial restrictions. Specifically, there have been numerous cases where the local financial regulations in Comoros have made it difficult for operators and licensees to repatriate their funds. This is primarily because the Comorian government aims to retain capital within the country to bolster its own economic interests. Not to mention, Anjouan licenses tend to face skepticism in the industry due to perceived lack of strict supervision and as a result face trouble securing payment solutions and banking partners for their iGaming business. Overall, Such policies can severely limit the operational flexibility and liquidity that global businesses require, potentially complicating financial management and planning for entities operating under this jurisdiction.
