Providers

Casino game providers

Factual profiles of the studios that design slots, live casino and other games, and how their licences and history are checked.

In short

Game providers are the companies that design and supply casino games. Most work business to business: they license games to operators rather than offering them to players directly. KiraBet provider profiles record each studio's history, headquarters, product categories and licences, listing a licence only when it has been confirmed on a regulator's register or the provider's own website.

What a game provider does

A provider develops the game itself: the maths, the rules, the graphics and, for live casino, the studio operation. Operators then offer those games to their customers.

Evolution, for example, describes producing content for online casinos on a business-to-business basis. Operators add player authentication, account management and the user interface before offering the games to end users1.

Games are also checked before they reach the market. In Great Britain, licensees must ensure new products have been adequately tested by an approved test house before release2.

What each profile covers

  • Company facts – founding year and headquarters, taken from the provider or official records
  • Product categories – slots, live casino, crash games or table games
  • Licences and certifications – listed only when confirmed on a regulator's register or the provider's site, each with its source
  • Release history – notable launches with dates taken from provider announcements
  • Games in our database – linked profiles with sourced RTP, volatility and features

What we do not do

We do not rank providers or describe any studio as the best. Superlatives appear only if a cited source supports them.

A provider profile does not mean that the provider's games are offered lawfully in any given country. For the Maldives, see the legal position on casinos in the Maldives.

The rules behind these profiles are set out in how we review.

FAQ

Questions about this section

What is the difference between a game provider and a casino operator?

A provider designs and supplies games. An operator runs the gambling website, holds customer accounts and offers games to players. Providers such as Evolution describe working business to business, with operators handling player authentication, account management and the user interface.

How do you check a provider's licences?

We list a licence only when we have confirmed it on the issuing regulator's public register or on the provider's own website, and each licence links to the source used. Claims we cannot confirm are left out of the profile rather than repeated.

Are games tested before release?

Rules depend on the jurisdiction. In Great Britain, for example, licensees must ensure new products have been adequately tested by an approved test house before release, with the test report supplied to the Gambling Commission. Other regulators set their own testing requirements.

Gambling can cause harm
