The bookmaker business is considered a legal activity in most countries. To work legally in the desired jurisdiction, an entrepreneur needs to obtain permission from an authorised body — a gambling commission.
Terms for licensees vary in different states. However, the list of requirements almost always includes a bank guarantee and product certification.
The legalisation of businesses in offshore zones (the Isle of Man, Curacao, Malta, and others) implies a simplified licensing procedure and a preferential tax condition.
It is recommendable to publish the information about the permissions received (date, number, licence validity period) on the main page of the betting website.
