There are very few countries that have such a defined vision of its iGaming goals, as Malta does. The country has undergone rapid expansion in the iGaming sector and shows no sign of slowing down. It is the first country to regulate online gaming, and today has a large influence in the world of iGaming. The island is considered to be the finest address for gaming operators. Because of this, the iGaming industry is its most important economic contributor.

Malta’s attitude towards iGaming companies has resulted in major corporations taking an interest in the island. But not only the major corporations; there is a large B2B group of suppliers and service providers that have taken to Malta.

The iGaming environment is one of a kind. Companies can find game developers and solution providers to affiliate marketing firms. Malta’s track record in regulating iGaming companies goes back about 20 years to when the first online gaming operators stepped foot on the island.

Even though companies have to hold a separate local license from the market they are operating in, the island has still emerged as one of the big winners. This is because it has attracted sky high operators and service providers who are lining up to get their MGA licenses.

The international license does not restrict an operator to the Maltese market. In fact it gives companies the opportunity to exploit areas around the globe! Apart from this, there is a big presence of data centers, online payment processors, security auditors, gaming software developers and platform providers that are part of creating an environment that aids in growing a successful business. There are always technical experts around. They help in areas such as search engine optimization as well as lawyers and accountants with a great amount of experience. They make sure that a bright and creative group of talent is in place to aid companies in managing and growing their operations.
