Online casinos compulsorily have to obtain an operating license from any of the online gambling jurisdictions, before they start providing their gaming services over online websites. However, it makes sense only when they should get license from jurisdiction, which has already issued license to software providers of online casino games or to other online casinos with the help of same software. The reason for this is that in case jurisdiction responsible for issuing license is well-familiar with the software, it would be more convenient for them to audit various operations of online casino. Hence, this results in correspondence among online casinos powered by casino software providers and jurisdictions issuing operating licenses. Another feature of casino software providers is that software providers of online casinos having lesser number of clients will always have intention to work with lesser jurisdictions.
Online Casinos Powered by WagerWorks
The software provider of WagerWorks has facilitated online casinos to select any of the games with the help of remote online gaming server. These online casinos may have registration with any of the jurisdiction responsible for providing online casino games. However, online casinos, which select for entire platform of Wager Works gaming software should compulsorily have their operating license under AGCC i.e. Alderney Gambling Control Commission. For example, Virgin Casino and Sky Vegas Casino powered by Wager Works have their operating licenses under AGCC.
