Licensed operators would face independent game testing, RTP checks and ongoing monitoring of gambling-control technology.
Up to 15 operators can win the right to apply, but full approval will require detailed plans on harm prevention, consumer protection and compliance.
A three-stage auction, tougher harm checks and steep penalties are designed to bring offshore gambling into a licensed system.
