Online Casino Software

All online gaming websites that are available to play online use software in order to run their games. Sometimes this software is proprietary, which means it is built in-house by the company who own the website (this is common with online bingo sites), but more often than not, online casinos will use a specialist company who devise the games themselves and allow the gaming site to use them. Some companies will use a mixture of software providers in order to offer the biggest range of gameplay.

Below is a brief description of some of the more popular software game providers, and what you as a player can expect from sites powered by these sites.

Microgaming

Microgaming was established in 1994 and is considered the largest provider of online gaming software in the world, powering online casinos in both regulated and unregulated markets in a variety for languages and currencies.

RTG - Real Time Gaming

Real Time Gaming (or RTG) was originally established in Atlanta, Georgia in 1998 but moved to operate out of Costa Rica in 2008. Their software gives greater user control to the casino, rather than providing the kind of autonomy required by larger firms such as Playtech. RTG have been in the media in the past for still allowing their casinos to accept American players despite the act prohibiting online gaming in the US.

RTG Gaming has a much smaller portfolio of games when compared to the bigger players on the market, with roughly 120 on offer, but the extra control they offer makes using their software appealing.
