GBO Success Story: Building a New Nevis Gaming Structure in Just Three Weeks
From Company Formation to Gaming License and EMI Account
Speed is often critical for established gaming operators preparing to launch new brands. However, creating an international corporate structure involves more than registering a company. The operator must coordinate company formation, licensing, compliance documentation, banking and payment arrangements—often across several jurisdictions.
The summery
GBO recently assisted an established online gaming operator that wanted to expand its international operations and launch several new brands. The client needed a complete structure that could be established efficiently while meeting the necessary corporate, regulatory and financial requirements.
Through GBO’s experience, established local partnerships and familiarity with the Nevis licensing process, the complete structure was established in approximately three weeks.

The Challenge
The client was already operating successfully in the online gaming industry and wanted to create a separate international structure through which it could develop and operate additional brands.
Its priorities were clear:
- Establish a suitable IBC company quickly.
- Obtain an international gaming licence.
- Complete the regulatory onboarding process efficiently.
- Open a European EMI account for the new company.
- Prepare the structure so the operator could launch its new brand without unnecessary delays.
Because several parts of the project were interconnected, the company formation, licensing application, compliance documentation and EMI onboarding had to be carefully coordinated.
Our Approach
GBO developed and managed a complete solution covering the corporate, licensing and financial components of the new operation.
A quote by our managing partner Lena Dikman:
“The client needed to establish a new structure as quickly as possible. Once we understood their objectives, we began the company formation process that same day through our authorized local agent in Nevis. The company was incorporated within four working days, including name approval and the certification, notarization and apostilling of the corporate documents required for the subsequent bank account application. In parallel, we began collecting and preparing the documentation and policies required for the Nevis gaming licence. As the operator was already an established GBO client, we had immediate access to much of the necessary due-diligence documentation. Within approximately one week, the company had been incorporated and we submitted the complete licence application through the Nevis Online Gaming Authority’s digital portal. Around two weeks later, the documentation was approved and the licence was granted. The client had therefore completed its new corporate and licensing structure in approximately three weeks and could immediately begin launching the brands planned for the new operation.”

1. Establishing the Irish Company
Following an assessment of the operator’s objectives and planned activities, a Nevis company was selected for the new corporate structure.
Through GBO’s cooperation with an experienced local partner in Nevis , we were able to coordinate the incorporation process quickly and efficiently. The new company was established within approximately four to five business days.
This gave the client a suitable entity from which to proceed with the gaming licence application and the development of its new brands.
2. Managing the Nevis Gaming License Application
Immediately after the company was incorporated, GBO began coordinating the Nevis gaming license application.
The Nevis Online Gaming Authority has significantly improved and streamlined its onboarding process through an efficient digital application system. Nevertheless, the speed of an application still depends heavily on the quality and completeness of the information, policies and supporting documents submitted.
Having already assisted numerous companies with Nevis corporate and licensing procedures, GBO understood the regulator’s documentation, policy and compliance requirements. This allowed us to prepare the application correctly, address the relevant requirements from the beginning and minimize unnecessary delays.
3. Coordinating the Complete Structure
Rather than treating company formation, licensing and financial onboarding as separate assignments, GBO coordinated them as parts of one complete structure.
The process included:
- Nevis company formation
- Corporate documentation
- Nevis Gaming license application support
- Preparation and review of the required policies
- Compliance and due-diligence coordination
- Communication with the relevant local partners
- European EMI account assistance
The company formation and licensing process was completed in approximately three weeks.
4. European EMI Account Assistance
Once the company had been established and the gaming license obtained, GBO immediately assisted the client with its application to a European electronic money institution.
Having a properly established company, a clear ownership structure and the relevant gaming licence allowed the EMI onboarding process to move forward from a strong position.
This completed the essential corporate, regulatory and financial foundation required for the new operation.
The Final Result
Within approximately three weeks, the client had successfully established a new Nevis company and obtained its international gaming licence.
GBO then assisted the company with the European EMI onboarding process, enabling the operator to complete the financial side of its new structure.
Following the integration and configuration of its gaming platform, the operator was able to launch its new brand within just a few additional weeks.
The client achieved its objective: a complete international structure designed to support the launch and future development of multiple gaming brands.
Why the Process Was Successful
The project moved quickly because GBO brought together the experience, relationships and practical knowledge required at every stage.
Key factors included:
- An established local partnership in Nevis
- Extensive experience with gaming-company structures
- Familiarity with the Nevis licensing and onboarding requirements
- Correct preparation of policies and supporting documentation
- Coordination of corporate, licensing and EMI processes
- Continuous communication with the client and professional partners
This reduced delays between the different stages and enabled the operator to concentrate on preparing its technology, platform and brands for launch.
In Summary
This success story demonstrates that establishing a new international gaming operation does not need to become a long and fragmented process.
With the right jurisdictional strategy, properly prepared documentation and experienced coordination, company formation, gaming licensing and financial onboarding can progress efficiently as one integrated project.
