Licensing Services. Explained before anything is built.

Licences for fintech, crypto, e-money, payments and online gaming, planned together with banking, payments, controls and what the regulator expects.

Licensing advisory
In plain English

A licence is never just a filing with the regulator. It has to support banking, card payments, keeping customers' money safe, identity checks, anti-money-laundering, governance and the markets the business wants to sell to.

We help founders and operators choose the country, build the application, prepare the controls and line up the partners that make the licence usable once it's granted.

We write applications the way regulators read them: capital, people, systems, outsourcing, financial-crime controls and a plan for closing down safely are all documented before the file goes in.

What matters

The things that decide whether this works in real life.

The right regulator

The country is chosen on product, markets, ownership, capital, how long the regulator takes and running costs after the licence.

Banks and payments in the right order

Partner banks, banks holding customers' money, card processors and payment providers are mapped before the application work starts.

Controls and people

Money-laundering officer, compliance, board, IT, outsourcing and customer-money procedures are built to survive the regulator's questions.

Ready after approval

Launch checklists, first audit preparation and day-to-day controls are planned alongside the application.

Frequently asked

Questions clients ask before choosing a route.

Which country gives a licence fastest?
It depends on the activity, ownership, capital and payment setup. We don't recommend a regulator just because it advertises a short filing time.
Do I need banking before applying?
For fintech, crypto and gaming, banking and payments should be checked before filing. A licence that can't bank or take payments is commercially weak.
Can you provide compliance officers?
We can introduce checked money-laundering officers, compliance staff, directors and auditors where a country requires local or independent appointments.
