CSB Group Malta Gaming License Support

Multi ProductMixedAvailability: Standalone and Bundled

Delivery crosses several legal entities and outside providers. CSB International Limited controls website and engagement data, but each licensing, corporate, legal, tax, audit, key-function, bank, payment, and hosting engagement must name its provider and responsible professional.

The client remains applicant, licensee, operator, and merchant of record. MGA decides the application, approved natural persons hold key functions, and banks, payment providers, auditors, laboratories, and hosting partners make their own decisions. CSB International held company-services registration in 2018; its 2026 status is unresolved, and that registration does not extend to every group company or service.

Products

MGA B2C and B2B application coordination: Application review, document compilation, project management, and regulator liaison for the license class and client responsibilities named in the engagement.

Malta company and corporate support: Incorporation, registered-office, governance, administration, and related work through the identified CSB entity, subject to a current MFSA authorization check where required.

Compliance and key-function support: Policies, AML and regulatory support, plus named approved-person capacity; the brand or company itself is not the natural-person key-function holder.

Accounting, payroll, and tax support: Back-office work supplied under a separate responsibility and authority matrix, especially where payment approval or bank-signatory rights are proposed.

IT and systems readiness: Technical documentation, readiness, and audit coordination; identify the independent reviewer, testing scope, evidence owner, and independence rules separately.

Bank, payment, and hosting coordination: Application assistance and introductions to banks, payment providers, and partner infrastructure; CSB is not the bank, PSP, acquirer, hosting owner, or merchant of record.

Integration: The engagement should identify every CSB group company and outside provider, the applicant and licensee, license class and game types, player markets, responsible partner, legal counsel, corporate-services authorization, named key-function people and certificates, IT auditor and laboratory, bank, PSP, hosting provider, regulator-portal authority, documents and data, official and professional fees, referral compensation, authority limits, conflicts, milestones, acceptance, regulator questions, rejection and remediation scope, DPA and subprocessors, retention, liability, renewals, termination, and handover. Entity, package, fees, timeline, success rate, and legal privilege remain engagement-specific.

Strengths

+ CSB supported Gameart Limited's Malta B2B application for license MGA/B2B/966/2022.
+ The Malta service has a concrete application and support map rather than only a general jurisdiction list.
+ CSB uses several legal entities and a separate data controller; the engagement must assign each workstream and data role to the correct company.
+ CSB International is an active Malta company and held company-services registration in 2018.

What to verify in procurement

! Do not contract with the CSB Group brand alone. Identify the company, current authorization, professional, insurer, and liability allocation for licensing, corporate, legal, tax, audit, trustee, and key-function work.
! Current MFSA authorization remains unresolved for CSB International, CSBL Advisory, and every trustee entity. Recheck each entity before ordering regulated company or fiduciary services.
! Director, secretary, accountant, payment approver, bank signatory, compliance advisor, key person, and trustee roles can create concentration and independence conflicts. Limit authority and document incompatible roles.
! Bank, PSP, hosting, real-estate, and other partner introductions can carry referral or related-party economics. Require the complete provider list, alternatives, commissions, data access, service levels, and exit rights.
! The privacy framework was last updated in 2020 and does not map current group entities or processors. Obtain a workstream-specific DPA, transfer mechanism, retention schedule, and deletion process.
! Anjouan is excluded because the claimed issuing route conflicts with current Union of the Comoros law. Require a lawful counterparty, legal basis, and commercial chain for any alternative jurisdiction.
