^ Definitely you are right and it should must your license, not on other names.
I suggest to OP to read this article on how to get an online gambling business license, there is no need to rent if you can afford to get your own.
https://meliorgames.com/gambling/online-gambling-license-how-to-get-it/. And I also suggest getting your own lawyer for this and understand first the jurisdiction in your country or in any offshore country that you may choose because they had different rules and laws.
If I were op, I would do what you said and don't have to worry about the cost as when the gambling platform attracts gamblers then the amount of money spent to acquire gambling license and other expenses will be deducted from profit (house edge) as long as the platform survive and stay legit. There is a thread where op is about a gambling site having a domain that is expire and even bought a domain didn't get much attention.
It is better to acquire your own, but we don't know the motive of the OP here.
I hope, he is not looking in this business as short-term venture.
If he is not ready to accommodate all the aspects needed to set-up a gambling site with solid foundation, better not start at all.
Hi guys, I was wondering if anyone could help me out. I'm looking to rent a legit online gambling license. What's the best way to do so?
You have to look to the regulators for this advice based on the jurisdiction you are trying to apply from.
Curacao and Panama seem to be two very popular destinations for online casinos to gain licenses from. From what I've heard the process is not particularly difficult and you should be able to gain one quite easily.
Getting a license doesn't necessarily mean that you have the power to serve every country in the world though. Take that in mind.
As others have said already, why rent if you can get one?
You may never know also what will be the arrangements of your third party provider that he will ask of you later on.
