Gambling software

Gambling software means computer software for use in connection with remote gambling but does not include anything for use solely in connection with a gaming machine. [GA2005, s41] Gaming Software is also a type of Operating Licence that allows an entity to manufacture, supply, adapt or install gambling software which is used by operators licensed by the Gambling Commission (regardless of where they are based), or (if based in Great Britain) to manufacture, supply, adapt or install gambling software used by operators that do not have a Gambling Commission licence and are based abroad. Various licence types permit the licence holder to conduct all or some of these gambling services.
