The definition clarifies when promotional or marketing activity itself triggers the need for a Category 1 eGambling licence issued by the Alderney Gambling Control Commission. Alongside this definitional change, licence applications and supporting documentation must now be submitted electronically, a procedural requirement that replaces the prior paper-based Schedule 1 application form. Both changes derive from the same 2025 Amendment Ordinance, confirmed by the States of Alderney's Billet d'Etat record dated 17 December 2025, and represent instrument-level changes to the licensing regime rather than a change to the underlying Category 1 and Category 2 licence structure itself.
