The online gambling market in the UK occupies a leading position both in Europe and in the world. Over the past few years, the gambling industry has shown good growth dynamics, and this is due both to the historical love of the British for gambling, and to a clear government policy to regulate this industry.
The regulatory body - the UK Gambling Commission (UKGC) - until November 2014 did not oblige operators to license their business in the UK. For this reason, most operators preferred to obtain cheaper licenses from Malta or Gibraltar, while still being able to accept bets from UK players. However, in 2014, a law was passed obliging all operators who accept bets from UK players or who place their equipment in the UK to obtain a UKGC license and pay taxes to the UK treasury in the amount of 15% of income.
So, if you want to run a remote gaming service (including online gambling), either advertising to UK consumers and/or any part of your remote gaming equipment is based in the UK, you will need to obtain two types of license from the UKGC : Remote operating license and personal manager license.
UKGC license fees can vary greatly depending on the type and number of licenses, as well as the amount of overall gambling income. For example, a one-time application fee can vary from 600 to 70,000 pounds, and an annual license fee can range from 1,000 to 155,000 pounds.
