What Affinity Group does

Affinity Group is a privately held, multi-jurisdictional corporate and private wealth services firm founded in 2004 and headquartered in the Isle of Man. It delivers corporate structuring, trust and fiduciary administration, regulatory licensing support, and asset protection services to ultra-high-net-worth individuals, families, and corporate clients across more than five regulated jurisdictions (Isle of Man, Malta, Cayman Islands, United Kingdom, and the United States). Core verticals include eGaming (where the firm claims a 100% licence application success rate in tier-one jurisdictions), fintech, medicinal cannabis (via the Affinity Navigator platform), aviation, yachting, and professional sports. The company operates through specialized sub-brands (Affinity Crew, Affinity Jets, Affinity Nav, Affinity Sports) and wholly-owned regulated subsidiaries, with over £2 billion in client assets under administration.

The business model is professional services delivered on a bespoke, quote-based engagement model with multi-year contracts. Go-to-market is sales-led through senior relationship managers, supported by a network of intermediaries (international banks, law firms, accountants) and strategic channel partnerships — most notably SCCG Management for gaming, CambridgeHOK and Lawrence Stephens for cannabis, and the QPR sports partnership. The firm relies on regulatory licences across multiple authorities (IoM FSA, Malta MFSA, CIMA) and an experienced leadership team with deep STEP and ICA credentials.

Underlying technology is Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Azure hosted in UK South data centres, managed by Manx Technology Group — generic enterprise IT rather than proprietary platforms. The cannabis-facing Affinity Navigator platform is positioned as a comprehensive licence application and compliance service but is described as a service offering rather than a technology product. Revenue is derived from professional services fees across corporate structuring, trust administration, licensing and compliance work, and aviation/yachting structuring.
