Alderney egaming law is to be amended following a legislative review.
Following a recent legislative review, the island of Alderney is to simplify its licensing by doing away with activity-specific licenses and introducing a "one license fits all" policy.
Explaining the change, Robin Le Prevost, the recently employed chief of ecommerce for the jurisdiction said the change has been occasioned by the number of legal modifications recently undertaken, and the speed with which the industry is advancing.

"The whole purpose of this is that if you change legislation time and time again, it can get rather complex. What we are doing is starting again. You cant just keep putting band aids on; it is time to start afresh," he said.
Le Provost commented on the industry trend toward multi-gamestyle offerings on big integrated sites added that as it is increasingly common for operators to offer a combination of product offerings through integrated sites, saying: "Having just one licence has a simplifying effect; multiple licences add burdens and admin and bureaucracy. We are going to have one simple licence. A trend in the industry now is to offer lots of products, not just a casino or a sports book. We wanted to mirror trends within the industry."
The single licence, through which operators can provide all egambling services including mobile, can be purchased for an annual fee of GBP 70 000 (US$128,000).
