case study
Building Legal Architecture for Offshore Casinos Entering the EU and other T1 Markets
Expert legal support enables offshore casino operators to successfully enter and operate within regulated EU and T1 markets.
Overview
  • Industry: iGaming/Casino
  • Services used: Legal structure development for offshore casinos
  • Results: Successful market entry for offshore operators in the EU and some other T1 markets with a robust legal and compliance framework
Client's Situation
Operating offshore casinos presents significant complexities, especially when entering regulated markets like the EU/UK/and other T1 countries. The challenge is to develop a comprehensive legal structure that allows for compliance with local regulations while navigating the complexities of offshore licensing and regulatory requirements.

Our goal was to build a robust legal architecture that supports safe and compliant operations in the EU markets and addresses all regulatory and operational concerns.
Our Solution
Rikk leveraged its extensive experience to develop a comprehensive legal framework for offshore casino operators. The solution involved several key steps:

1. Legal Structure Development

We designed a legal structure that partially complies with EU regulations while leveraging offshore licensing advantages. This included creating a framework that addresses regulatory requirements in both the offshore jurisdiction and target markets. This model helps us protect the business from claims and has not lost any single entity for the last four years.

2. Payment Service Provider (PSP) Integration

We identified and integrated high-quality PSPs with favorable rates to process transactions efficiently. This ensured that player transactions were handled securely and complied with regulatory standards.

3. Conflict Resolution and Compliance Management

Our team addressed conflicts and issues with Curacao regulators, offshore licensing authorities, and local European regulators. We developed strategies to resolve disputes and ensure compliance with all applicable regulations.

4. Regulatory Connections

We facilitated communication with local regulators to address any potential fines or complaints. Our proactive approach helped mitigate risks and ensure smooth operations in the target markets.
Results Achieved
  • With the legal architecture established by Rikk, our client successfully entered and operated in the EU and other T1 markets.
  • The comprehensive framework ensured regulatory compliance, efficient transaction processing, and effective conflict resolution.
As a result, the client was able to operate securely and effectively in these complex markets.
