Aldreney is the most accpetable and widely used of the gaming jurisdictions around.  They have a variety of bandwidth suppliers and severe rules and regulations as regards software testing.  There are no restrictions on where Alderney operators can take bets from. Costa Rica is regarded as being slighlty questionable, there are no software testing requirements for example.  As regards bandwidth operators have to deal with a state monopoly. Gibraltar is on the Uk white list as per Alderney, its another ginat in terms of the amount of market share it has gathered. Isle of Man is on the UK white list - respectable perhaps too severe in its application of a regulated approach meant that it was prohibative to work from this territory when they legalised online gaming some years ago. Kahnawake is an Indian reservation in Canada - due to the rights in the states for Indian tribes to use gaming to ensure the continuation of their traditions etc this is how the Mohawkes operate a massive server centre.  They are not part of the UK white list and suffered some loss of business as a result. Malta as its in the EU has been growing dramatically. This could become the biggest of the lot in time. Netherland Antilles despuite the name quite a stand up location with some good regulations. Panama sketchy details on this location only but regulations appear to be very light weight. Tasmania as one would expect is heavily regulated. United Kingdom the death knell for the UK was the decsion to charge heavily on taxes. Making the comparison between this location and Gibraltar and Alderney worthless.  Most major high street brands have lept their web sites off shore as a result.
