Gaming license options for small operators what's realistic budget?

greal

Thinking about getting into iGaming but the licensing costs feel overwhelming. I've been researching options for smaller operators who don't have €500k+ to throw at a Malta license upfront.

Malta (MGA) keeps coming up as the "gold standard" but the costs are brutal for someone just starting out.

Is Malta actually worth it for a startup, or is it just prestige?

Banking — everyone says this is the nightmare part

Would appreciate any first-hand experience, especially recent.
