Navigating Complex iGaming Compliance in a Highly Regulated Market

Nestled at the crossroads of Europe, Switzerland has long been recognized as a hub for stability, finance, and innovation. That same reputation now extends to its regulated iGaming market, where oversight is provided by the Swiss Federal Gaming Board (Eidgenössische Spielbankenkommission – ESBK). Together, these authorities ensure a transparent, accountable, and secure environment that places strong emphasis on consumer protection, responsible gaming, and fair competition making Switzerland an appealing jurisdiction for operators targeting both domestic and international markets.

Gaming Associates supports operators as an independent testing and certification partner. Our role goes beyond issuing approvals we work alongside clients throughout the compliance journey, assessing system integrity, validating game performance, and ensuring technical infrastructure meets Switzerland’s stringent requirements. By combining technical precision with a collaborative approach, we help operators navigate the licensing process more efficiently, avoid costly missteps, and maintain the highest levels of trust and integrity in their offerings. 

These are the services that we offer in Switzerland:

  • ISO/IEC 27001
  • Game Testing
  • RNG Testing
  • Jackpot System Audit

    FAQs

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Q1: In Switzerland, how are reports authorized and submitted to the regulator?

    In Switzerland, Gaming Associates submits all certification and test reports directly to the Swiss Federal
    Gaming Board (SFGB). These submissions are part of our formal responsibility as an approved test lab.

    Q2: What are the operator-specific responsibilities under Swiss gaming law?

    Operators must actively verify player address and domicile to prevent Swiss residents from registering with
    unlicensed platforms. Since unlicensed foreign operators are strictly prohibited from offering online gaming
    services to users based in Switzerland, operators are required to implement strict KYC (Know Your Customer)
    processes, deploy geo-blocking or other technical measures to restrict access, and maintain compliance
    records for audits. Gaming Associates assists operators in setting up and validating these systems, helping
    them remain compliant and avoid regulatory penalties.

    Q3: What are the regulatory requirements for online gaming platforms operating in Switzerland?

    In Switzerland, online gaming platforms must comply with strict standards of fairness, security, and integrity
    as mandated by federal regulators such as the Swiss Federal Gaming Board (SFGB). These platforms must
    ensure game fairness and randomness, implement strong cybersecurity and data protection protocols,
    maintain ongoing system monitoring and reporting, and establish robust player protection mechanisms.
    Gaming Associates, as an accredited test lab, plays a vital role in validating these systems through rigorous
    testing and compliance audits, ensuring that platforms meet all Swiss regulatory expectations before market
    entry.

    Q4: What type of licence is required for iGaming testing in Switzerland?

    In Switzerland, any gaming operator, platform provider, or game developer seeking certification of their gaming platform, game, or random number generator (RNG) must hold a valid ISO/IEC 27001 Information Security Management System (ISMS) certification.
    This certification is a mandatory prerequisite for participation in testing, evaluation, and approval processes under the Swiss Federal Gaming Board (ESBK) regulatory framework.
    Gaming Associates (GA) provides comprehensive services, including ISO/IEC 27001 certification, independent testing, and compliance assessments, ensuring that operators and suppliers meet all Swiss regulatory and technical standards with confidence.

    Q5: How can I verify if my games are approved by ESBK in Switzerland?

    The Swiss Federal Gaming Board (ESBK) maintains an official list of approved games on its website. Operators and suppliers can check this list to confirm whether their games are authorized for the Swiss online gaming market. Gaming Associates (GA) supports clients in achieving ESBK approval through independent testing, certification, and regulatory compliance.
