Maltese entities
An EU member state using the euro, and one of Europe’s principal bases for licensed online gaming. Home to many MGA-licensed operators, B2B suppliers and group service companies.
In shortCCYFX onboards Maltese companies, including operators and B2B suppliers licensed by the Malta Gaming Authority. Malta uses the euro, which matches the CCYFX base currency. Typical documents include the Malta Business Registry certificate, the beneficial owner extract and the MGA licence.
A European centre for licensed gaming
Malta combines EU membership, the euro and a long-established gaming regulator. The Malta Gaming Authority licenses B2C operators and B2B suppliers, and many international gaming groups run their operating company from Malta.
For Maltese clients, our EUR base currency fits naturally with paying suppliers, affiliates and group companies in USD, GBP and other currencies.
