  • Breach 2- Regulation (3)(1)(a) and Regulation 6 of the Gaming License Fees regulations. The MGA noted that Totup System Limited has repeatedly failed to pay the applicable compliance contribution fees due to the MGA.

Right to appeal

According to the cancellation of authorisation, Totup System Limited must:

  • Suspend all gaming operations with immediate effect and cease to register any new players;
  • Settle all outstanding fees that are due to the MGA; and
  • Remove with immediate effect, any reference to the Malta Gaming Authority and the authorisation in accordance with Article 51 of the Gaming Act.
