Casino operator: two licences, one banking stack, 11 weeks.

Series-A iGaming operator, mid-seven-figure ARR, needed a launch jurisdiction fast plus a secondary licence to cover restricted markets. Board was 9 weeks from a launch commitment to investors. We filed Anjouan (primary) and Curaçao (secondary) in parallel, set up a three-bank stack across EU and the Caribbean, and connected two Visa/Mastercard acquirers plus a crypto on-ramp.

Web3 protocol: VASP licence, EUR banking, no frozen accounts at 12 months.

Protocol with $40M TVL had been refused by every EU EMI they'd tried. We moved them to a Lithuania CASP-transitional authorisation, paired with a Swiss operating bank and a Liechtenstein custody partner. Full banking stack stable across 12+ months with zero de-banking events.

Sportsbook re-licensed after being de-banked twice in six months.

Established operator had lost two EU EMIs and was facing a third banking exit. We re-structured the group, moved licensing to Kahnawake for a cleaner regulator story, and installed a primary + secondary banking stack across two continents. Zero downtime on player deposits through the transition.

Exchange startup: seed-stage MiCA-ready authorisation without a €730k capital block.

Seed-funded exchange needed EU authorisation but couldn't lock up the full CASP custody capital. We filed a narrower activity class matching their actual product — exchange and wallet services without custody — and mapped the upgrade path for Series A. Live in 13 weeks with €125k regulatory capital instead of €730k.

Crypto founder: full family immigration, corporate restructure, clean tax exit in one programme.

Founder of a crypto brokerage needed to relocate from a jurisdiction with a worsening tax outlook. We planned a phased move: founder to UAE (Golden Visa) first, family to Portugal 4 months later, with a corporate restructure that kept the brokerage operating throughout. Clean tax-residency switch confirmed in both the old and new jurisdictions.

EMI rescue: 14-month stalled application closed in 4 months.

Payments startup had been in back-and-forth with the Lithuanian regulator for 14 months on their EMI filing, spending heavily on a prior agent. We audited the file, found gaps in the AML manual and outsourcing register, re-drafted both, and took over regulator liaison. Authorisation issued four months later.

Tier-1 operator migration: Malta to IoM, investor-round closed post-licence.

VC-backed operator wanted a cleaner regulatory story for their Series C. We migrated the primary licence, kept operations running throughout the transition across 3 group entities, and closed on the round 60 days after IoM approval.
