iGaming refers to any form of real-money betting or gambling conducted online. This multi-billion dollar industry encompasses sports betting, online casinos, poker, and esports wagering, all powered by sophisticated B2B software providers.
The industry is broadly divided into several key verticals, each requiring specific technology and regulatory frameworks.
Placing wagers on the outcome of sports events. Includes pre-match odds, live in-play betting, and exotic prop bets. Driven by odds aggregation APIs and risk management tools.
Virtual versions of classic games like Slots, Blackjack, and Roulette. Powered by Random Number Generators (RNG) to ensure fairness and unpredictability of results.
Real-time streaming of human dealers from studios. Combines the trust of land-based casinos with the convenience of online play. Uses high-definition video streaming technology.
Peer-to-peer (P2P) card rooms where players compete against each other rather than the house. Requires liquidity pooling and strict anti-collusion software.
Wagering on professional video game competitions (LoL, CS:GO, Dota 2). Fast-growing sector with unique data feeds and younger demographic engagement.
Digital tickets for national lotteries and virtual bingo halls. Focuses on high-volume, low-stakes gaming with community features.
Unlike consumer-facing casino brands, these companies build the technology platforms, games, and infrastructure that power the betting sites.
