Remote gaming machine technical - full licence
This licence allows you to manufacture, supply, install, adapt, maintain or repair a gaming machine or a part of a gaming machine.
Regardless of where you are based in the world, you need a licence from us if:
- you are providing facilities for gambling to consumers in Great Britain online (or through any other means of remote communication)
- any part of your remote gambling equipment is based in Great Britain.
There is a remote operating licence for each type of gambling activity you might want to provide.
This licence allows you to manufacture, supply, install, adapt, maintain and repair all categories of gaming machine or parts of a gaming machine (which includes gaming machine software) using remote communication (for example supplying gaming machine software via secure file transmission or uploading new content to machines remotely).
You are responsible for making sure all your machines comply with the gaming machine technical standards.
If your business manufactures or supplies gaming machines using any form of non-remote communication (such as by uploading software to CD or memory stick), you should also apply for a non-remote gaming machine technical licence.
