In this article, iGaming industry consultant Ron Mendelson, Fast Offshore, delves into the benefits of obtaining an Anjouan iGaming license in 2025.
With more and more jurisdictions offering iGaming licenses to entrepreneurs, it can be challenging to know the best option. All claim to provide the best deal, including price, benefits, and scope, but when it comes to iGaming, it is not a one-size-fits-all approach, and what may suit one operator will not suit another. That is where Fast Offshore comes in, helping you cut through the noise and determine the best solution for you. In this article, we look closely at Anjouan, a rising star of the gaming scene, having gone from somewhat unknown to one of the top choices for established brands and those just starting out.
The Anjouan License
Ajouan, part of the Comoros Islands, has been offering iGaming licenses to operators since the late 1990s, meaning it was one of the first on the scene. But, it did not rise to prominence in other jurisdictions like Curacao or Costa Rica. However, a couple of years ago, everything changed. Anjouan tightened some of its rules and requirements, streamlined the application process, and emerged as a premier destination for iGaming operators. Today, it is home to hundreds of licensees, with more inquiries coming every day. But why has it become so popular? Let’s take a look at some of the benefits.
Benefits of the Anjouan iGaming license
It’s cost-effective
The Anjouan iGaming license is the lowest-cost option out there. While the actual cost can vary depending on your situation and specific needs, it is still the best value among all other jurisdictions. While it may not quite have the same prestige as the Isle of Man or Malta, its low cost means you have more profit and more cash to re-invest into the business. The Anjouan license is a great option for startups, established brands, or those looking to diversify and expand with a second or additional license.
It’s quick
As well as being the most low-cost option on the market, Anjouan also has the quickest application process. If all of your documents are in order, you can have the license in hand in as little as a few days. This is far below the timeframe of other jurisdictions such as Malta, the Isle of Man, or even Curacao or Costa Rica. The advantage of this is that you can be up and running and making money quickly with no delay. It also keeps costs down and means you can expand and grow without time-related headaches.
It’s simple
The Anjouan licensing process is much quicker and more straightforward than many of the other licenses out there. You still need to submit several documents that satisfy KYC, AML, and DD requirements, but the authorities do not burden you with cumbersome paperwork. By working with Fast Offshore, you can ensure that all your documents are in order and that the process will go smoothly. We have decades of experience in the iGaming sector and Anjouan and can assist you every step of the way. When one mistake can result in a rejection, it is better to be safe than sorry!
It’s comprehensive
With Anjouan, you need only one license for all your iGaming offerings. You are also free to offer your services worldwide, including Asia and Latin America, two emerging locations that are proving highly lucrative for the iGaming sector. With one license, you can open up many doors for new business and offer your services legally, which builds trust with your players.
It’s legitimate
The Anjouan license is an iGaming license that is legitimate and credible. By obtaining one, you can enter into partnerships with payment providers, banks, and other third parties that require a license to do business. It also gives you credibility with your players. They know you are licensed and legitimate, adhere to fair gaming rules, and responsible gaming initiatives. For this reason, they are more likely to put their trust in you and spend more money on your sites.
How to get the license?
To get your Anjouan license, you have to follow these steps.
1. Prepare your documents
These typically include:
-
A business plan detailing every area of the business and its operations.
-
Identification and due diligence documents for the company’s directors and shareholders.
-
A detailed outline of the games or services you want to offer clients.
-
AML and KYC policies.
2. Submission of application
Once you have gathered all the documents and given them to Fast Offshore, we submit them to the authorities on your behalf. They will assess suitability and compliance and get back to us with any further questions or requests for documents.
3. Compliance checks
The authorities then undertake stringent due diligence checks, including background checks on the company directors and shareholders, to ensure they have no history of involvement in illegal activities.
4. Approval and issuance of license
If the application meets all the requirements, the permit is approved, and you can commence your activities!
