Requirements for a Kahnawake Gaming license

Proof of Address: This document serves as proof of where you live or operate your business. It's usually a utility bill issued in your name, such as an electric or water bill. If you cannot provide one of these bills or you live abroad, don't worry, we can work with you to find an alternative solution
Source of Funds: Verifying your sources of income and assets is a critical step in the approval process. Every startup has its own financial background, and it's important that you transparently demonstrate the source of your company's funds to the regulatory agency.
Business plan: This is the roadmap for your business. In your business plan, you describe the goals of your business, how it'll operate, what your marketing strategies will be, and what you expect to accomplish financially. It helps us understand your vision and how you plan to achieve it
Gaming certification: If you're a software provider that develops games for operators, it's essential to obtain certification from major institutions such as iTechLabs, GLI, and BMM Testlabs. This certification serves as proof of the fairness and integrity of your games. We control this process so that you can complete it efficiently and simultaneously with the licensing process.
Certificate of good conduct: This certificate proves that you don't have a criminal record. It's important for regulatory purposes because it shows that your business is run by someone with a clean record
Functional website: Your website should be fully functional during the licensing process. We will work with your platform provider to ensure that all legal requirements are met and that your website is ready for use at the right time.
