Protect residents, add value for licensees

Local authorities must ensure gambling premises offer safe, sustainable activities for residents, whilst enforcing a level playing field for licensees.

What is Prepsmart Licensing?

Prepsmart Licensing is designed exclusively for local authorities who are looking to improve regulatory compliance within their licensed businesses, without sacrificing valuable time and resources.

Regulating gambling locally can be a complex and daunting task. Training officers to the level needed to carry out effective, in-depth assessments of gambling premises takes time and expertise, and keeping up to date with what’s happening in the fast-paced, ever-changing world of gambling is challenging.

Have a look at our packages, all of which can be tailored to meet the specific needs of your locality.

The Complete Prep

For local authorities which are looking to outsource the full, end-to-end assessment process. Just tell us which premises you’d like to assess, and our expert team will do all the work for you.

The Sustainable Prep

The basis of this Prep is the development of your licensing and enforcement officers through expert training, in turn enabling them to carry out effective assessments at all types of premises, operating under all types of gambling licences and permits.

The Bespoke Prep
