Gespa sets out Swiss operator and game licence requirements

Summary

Gespa has published guidance for organisers of large-scale gambling in Switzerland, setting out the operator licence and game licence requirements. Operator licences are granted on request where the applicant meets the Gambling Act and Ordinance conditions, and a game licence additionally requires that operator licence. Gespa said assessing skill-based games is usually more complex because winning must depend entirely or largely on player skill.
