Casino Software

When we talk about casino software here at Casino Listings we're generally referring to a couple of things. The first is the manufacturer or developer of the specific games that are used by a casino, and the second is the actual software system which you install or run through your web browser that presents the games to you, allows you to deposit and withdraw, interact with customer service, and claim promotional offers. Following is a list of casino software providers, links to our evaluation of the software, and more information.

What makes casino software important?

Casinos that use the same software usually have the exact same collection of games for you to play, and often contribute to the same progressive jackpot pools. At a very high level, the software a casino uses can be used as one important factor in determining an initial impression of the quality of the casino. Software offerings range from expensive and difficult to acquire (eg. Microgaming and Playtech) to cheap and easy to obtain (eg. Rival, TopGame). Some providers such as RTG have gained an unfortunate reputation for being associated with rogue casinos. We know for example, that a casino offering a dedicated Microgaming download client has some serious financial backing, while a Rival casino run as a white label could just as well be a one man affiliate operation run out of a basement on a shoestring budget.

However despite the game selection being identical, it would be a mistake to assume that your experience at one casino would be the same as another based simply upon the software that they use. Casinos that use the same software and games can diverge wildly when it comes to the quality of service, license that they operate under, payment processing speed, deposit methods available, and promotional offerings. This is why we recommend you consult the specific review of a casino that you are considering playing at before going ahead and depositing your money, regardless of which software they use.

As you can see from the table above there are a large number of companies producing online casino software and games these days. In recent years many online casinos, particularly the larger operators, have moved away from a single software offering towards presenting a site that provides players with games from multiple different developers. This allows the casino to pick and choose which games they provide to their customers and allows them to put together a casino that gives players the choice of the best games from across the industry. In this sense, you could say that the importance of the software that a casino uses is diminishing as the collection of games supported by many operators converges. Once again, the service levels, payment speed, and promotional offerings are what will continue to set the good casinos apart from the mediocre ones.
