Power BI Cloud Reporting - Data Refresh

Hello experts,

I'm new to PowerBI devs and i'm trying to understand the best scenario to create a report that should be published within an organization webiste based on CSV files collected locally from a custom CRM application: we have a list of CSV (exported from CRM) and we would like to create a cloud report which refers to CSV data with the ability to schedule daily data updates. 

Customer has only power bi licenses and nothing else. 

Looking online I found local data gateways: is it useful in this scenario? Is there any limitation on refresh? 

What else can I use to update data and push data into PowerBI reports? 

Need Help
