Launch of Mayotte Gaming iGaming License: A New Era for Offshore Online Gambling
The global iGaming industry has a new destination. Mayotte Gaming has officially launched its offshore iGaming license, opening a regulated, independent pathway for operators worldwide who are looking to establish or expand their online gambling businesses under a credible and cost-effective jurisdiction.
What Is the Mayotte iGaming License?
Operating under the authority of the Comoros Union, Mayotte has established an independent offshore licensing regime specifically designed for the iGaming sector. While gambling — including online gambling — is strictly regulated under Comoros Union law, Mayotte's framework provides a dedicated local and independent licensing structure for international operators seeking a legitimate offshore base.
The license is issued under the Computer Gaming Licensing Act 2005, which governs both B2C (Business-to-Consumer) and B2B (Business-to-Business) iGaming operations. This gives operators a clear, defined legal basis from which to launch and grow their platforms globally.
Why Choose the Mayotte iGaming License?
The Mayotte license stands out in the offshore iGaming market for several key reasons:
- Affordable pricing — License fees range from just €15,000 to €25,000 per year, making it one of the most cost-efficient offshore licenses available.
- Fast approval process — Operators can expect full license approval within 1 to 4 weeks.
- Better recognition — The Mayotte license offers stronger global recognition compared to many other offshore iGaming jurisdictions.
- Public license register — Full transparency with a publicly accessible database of licensed operators.
- Defined legal framework — Clear legislation and regulatory authority, not a grey-area setup.
- International licensing authority — Mayotte issues licenses to foreign operators, making it a truly global offshore solution.
A Real Offshore Model — Built for iGaming
The Mayotte iGaming License is a genuine offshore model, purpose-built for the needs of modern online gaming businesses. Unlike some jurisdictions that simply tolerate iGaming activity, Mayotte has built a standalone regulatory structure with its own gaming law, independent authority, and a long-standing offshore licensing system.
Key pillars of the Mayotte licensing model include:
- Independent gambling legislation
- A recognized regulatory body
- Authority to license foreign operators globally
- Its own gaming law — Computer Gaming Licensing Act 2005
- International B2C and B2B licenses
- A long-standing, proven offshore licensing system
How to Launch Your iGaming Business with a Mayotte License
Operators looking to launch an iGaming business under the Mayotte license can apply directly through Mayotte Gaming Authority. The process is streamlined and designed to get operators up and running quickly — without the lengthy timelines or high costs associated with EU-level licensing.
The Mayotte Gaming team provides full support to new applicants, helping build a complete and compliant operational setup — including banking solutions, payment service provider (PSP) integrations, and a ready-to-go games portfolio.
Offshore — But Credible
It is important to note that the Mayotte license is an offshore license and does not carry the same level of regulatory weight as EU-licensed jurisdictions such as Malta or Gibraltar. However, for operators targeting markets where an offshore model is commercially viable, Mayotte offers a significantly more reputable and structured alternative than many other offshore options currently available.
In a market where credibility, speed, and cost all matter, the Mayotte iGaming License delivers a compelling package for startups and established operators alike.
