That all depends. Marketing is the key to success. What is required is Internet Traffic. The Marketing section will list firms that specialize in acquiring internet traffic. Keep in mind one needs to spend money to make money. A reasonable expectation would be to spend about USD $ 400,000 – 500,000 (including the licensing fee above) and there should be a return on investment in approximately 9 months. Most online casinos that are new spend about USD $30,000 – $50,000 each month in marketing. There are online casino and sportsbook operations spending well over USD $1 Million per month in their marketing budget. Some online casinos are doing well over USD $1 million per month in PROFITS. Online casino and online sportsbook companies not spending money on marketing are losing money.

There are three ways to do this:

1) Design and implement all SOFTWARE for an internet casino and E-commerce. Keep in mind this costs millions of US Dollars. Also necessary is a gaming license to run a casino, which requires approvals from most governments. This too, does not come inexpensively. However, one has full control of the site, and full knowledge of the software source code. In addition, no royalties are paid out to a software development company.

2) Become a Licensee of an Online Gambling Software Provider. This is a far less expensive option and the client receives all the software and sometimes even the equipment necessary. It is also the most popular option for both licensed land-based establishments as well as entrepreneurs. Costs range from USD $ 30,000 to USD $ 350,000 (some ask as high as USD $1 Million). The average licensing fees are around USD $150,000 (this usually includes marketing costs). In most cases a royalty is paid to the software provider as a percentage of the monthly “take” or “drop” (gross profit). Usually the software provider has payment processing (merchant account providers) already set up for a turnkey operation.

3) Become a Sublicensee of a Licensee. This is the least expensive option. Costs range from USD $ 0 to USD $ 60,000. Being an affiliate is basically the same thing as being a sublicensee with no up front costs. The sublicensee must do all the marketing and receives a smaller percentage than a full licensee (2), because royalties paid to the licensee are much higher. The Sublicensing Section lists Online Casino Software Licensees that are willing to provide this.
