Remote Gaming Operator license

Issued by NGA
For operators that offer remote gaming directly to players, including online casino, RNG-based games and live dealer content, using Neves as a base for some or all of their operations.
Typical applicants: online casino brands, multi-product gaming sites and groups combining RNG, live dealer and other gaming verticals.
Remote Casino & RNG Platforms
Operators offering RNG-based games such as slots, table games and instant win products to players in approved markets, with defined game portfolios, RTP frameworks and game providers.
Live Dealer & Hybrid Set-ups
Operators offering live dealer streams or hybrid game formats (for example, game-show style products), whether hosted in Neves or elsewhere but managed under a Neves-based operating entity.
Who this suits: Gaming brands that want a structured license for their remote casino and mixed gaming operations under the NGA framework, including multi-jurisdiction groups using Neves in their overall structure.

Sports & Event Betting license

Issued by NGA
For operators that provide sportsbook, e-sports and other event-based wagering to players, with pre-match, in-play and related markets managed through a Neves operating entity.
Typical applicants: sportsbook operators, multi-vertical gaming brands with a sports offering, and e-sports or virtual sports specialists.
Sportsbook – Pre-match & In-play
Operators offering traditional sports wagering, including leagues, tournaments and events, with defined market creation, odds-setting, risk parameters and trading arrangements.
E-sports, Virtuals & Specials
Operators whose main focus is e-sports, virtual sports, fantasy markets or special event markets, often with different risk, integrity and player expectations compared to traditional sports.
Who this suits: Operators that want to anchor their sports and event betting operations in Neves, with clear expectations around market integrity, risk management and fair settlement.

B2B Gaming Platform & Content license

Issued by NGA
For businesses that supply platforms, content or infrastructure to licensed operators rather than dealing directly with players, including platform providers, aggregators and game studios.
Typical applicants: platform providers, game aggregators, standalone studios and B2B suppliers embedded in operator and network structures.
Platform & Infrastructure Providers
Entities providing full gaming platforms, account systems, wallets, bonus engines or related infrastructure to licensed operators, with integration to payment, KYC and content providers.
Game Studios & Content Suppliers
Entities that design, build and supply games or game engines to operators and networks, including RNG, live and hybrid content, often integrated into third-party platforms and aggregators.
Who this suits: Neves-based B2B providers that want a clearly identified gaming role within the NGA framework while supplying multiple licensed operators and networks.

Game Testing & Certification license

Issued by NGA
For independent or group-aligned entities that test, certify or audit games, platforms and gaming systems to confirm that they operate in line with declared rules, technical specifications and RTP frameworks.
Typical applicants: independent testing laboratories, internal testing units within groups and specialised technical audit firms.
Game Testing & Certification Labs
Entities that test and certify game math, RNG behaviour, pay-tables, jackpot logic and other elements, issuing reports that operators and NGA can rely on when approving content.
Platform & Technical Audit Services
Entities that review wider platform and system behaviour, including wallet logic, settlement flows, logging and change management, helping operators demonstrate technical integrity and consistency.
Who this suits: Testing, audit and certification providers that want to be recognised as part of the Neves gaming ecosystem and play a visible role in fair play and technical integrity.

Network & White-Label Operator license

Issued by NGA
For entities that run gaming networks, white-label solutions or managed operations where multiple skins, brands or partners sit under a core licensed structure managed from Neves.
Typical applicants: white-label providers, network hubs, master license holders and groups managing multiple partner brands from a central platform.
Network & Multi-Brand Hubs
Core operators managing multiple brands or skins, often across several markets, with central control over platforms, risk, settlements and responsible gaming tools.
White-Label & Managed Operations
Entities that provide end-to-end gaming operations for partners under a white-label or managed services model, while the partner brands face players under their own identities.
Who this suits: Groups and hubs that want to manage multiple brands or partners through a Neves-based license, with centralised controls, reporting and player protection standards.

Responsible Gaming & Player Protection Service license

Issued by NGA
For specialised service providers that support operators with responsible gaming, player monitoring, data analysis or customer interaction tools linked to player protection, operating as part of the wider Neves gaming ecosystem.
Typical applicants: responsible gaming solution providers, monitoring and analytics services and outsourced contact centre solutions focused on player protection.

Entities offering software and data tools that help operators monitor player behaviour, identify patterns of risk and implement pauses, limits or other interventions in line with defined policies.
Player Protection & Support Services
Entities providing outreach, customer interaction or support channels focused on responsible gaming, including campaigns, communication flows and structured engagement to support safer play.
Who this suits: Service providers that make responsible gaming and player safeguards a core part of their offering and want a clearly recognised role within the NGA licensing framework.
NFSA licenses (Neves Financial Services Authority – financial services & markets)

Financial services, trading, payments, digital banking, funds, custody, MSB and corporate services do not fall under NGA. Those activities sit within the scope of the Neves Financial Services Authority (NFSA), the financial arm of the Neves Licensing Authority.

Firms that combine gaming with financial services – for example, groups with both gaming and payment entities – may require licenses from both NGA and NFSA, held by separate entities within the same group. Each arm focuses on its own set of activities and expectations.
