Kahnawake Licensed Casinos

The Kahnawà:ke Gaming Commission (KGC) has regulated online gambling from the Mohawk Territory of Kahnawà:ke, Quebec, since 1996 — one of the longest-running licensing regimes in the industry.

RegulatorKahnawà:ke Gaming Commission (KGC)
Licensed since1996
Main authorisationClient Provider Authorization (CPA)
CoverageCasino, sportsbook, poker, lottery, esports, crypto

Regulator history

  1. 1996: Kahnawà:ke begins issuing interactive gaming authorisations — among the first online gambling regulators anywhere.
  2. Servers were historically hosted at the territory's own Mohawk Internet Technologies data centre, giving the KGC direct technical oversight.
  3. The KGC built Memoranda of Understanding with regulators in Malta, Alderney, Antigua and Barbuda, Ontario, California and Jersey.
  4. 2025: a fee update capped the standard CPA at six licensed domains before an extra annual per-domain fee applies.

Player protections

  • AML, data-security and responsible/fair-gaming standards enforced directly by the commission.
  • Documented dispute-handling procedures required of every licensee.
  • Nearly three decades of complaint-handling track record.

Restricted countries

  • A Kahnawake authorisation does not by itself cover regulated Ontario iGaming (that runs through iGaming Ontario/AGCO).
  • Operators must still exclude any market that requires its own local licence (UKGC, Dutch KSA, German GGL, US state regulators, etc.).

Every target market still has to be checked against local law — see our restricted countries guide.

Complaints process

  1. Use the casino's own required dispute-handling procedure first.
  2. If unresolved, file directly with the Kahnawà:ke Gaming Commission, which investigates licensee conduct and compliance.
  3. The KGC publishes a permit-holder list — confirm the operator and domain actually appear on it.

Frequently asked questions

Is a Kahnawake licence trustworthy?
It's one of the more established offshore regimes — nearly 30 years of operation, direct technical oversight, and a public permit-holder list — though it sits below EU-style regulators like the MGA on binding dispute resolution.
Does a Kahnawake licence let a casino target Ontario?
No. Ontario's regulated iGaming market runs through iGaming Ontario and the AGCO — a Kahnawake CPA is a separate authorisation and isn't a substitute for AGCO registration.
How do I verify a Kahnawake licence?
Check the operator and domain against the KGC's published permit-holder list, and confirm the licence seal links to a live verification record rather than a static image.
