Which tool do you need?
Comparing proposals?
Use White label vs
turnkey to model like-for-like supplier costs and commercial scope.
Planning margin?
Use the GGR to NGR bridge to
make deductions explicit before assessing a proposal.
Reviewing service risk?
Use SLA impact to
model a single outage against your own operating assumptions.
White label vs turnkey casino cost comparison
Compare up to three proposals over the same time horizon. Use confirmed supplier quotes rather than public pricing estimates.

Worked example: comparing two commercial models
Illustrative planning model, not a Spinlab quote or market benchmark.
Inputs
Monthly GGR: $200,000
Horizon:
24 months
Shared operating cost: $13,000/month
Scenario A
$10,000 setup + $3,000/month + 2%
of GGR
Modelled 24-month total: $562,000
Scenario B
$35,000 setup + $8,000/month + 0%
of GGR
Modelled 24-month total: $539,000
The example excludes licensing, taxes, marketing, working capital and costs not entered into the model. A lower entered-cost total does not replace a review of scope, integrations, data rights or support obligations.
What should be compared beyond price?
What should a platform buyer compare?
Compare scope, game and payment integrations, back-office functions, data ownership, service levels, implementation responsibilities, exit arrangements and market eligibility.
Is a lower setup fee always cheaper?
No. A variable fee can become material as GGR grows. Use a range of realistic scenarios and evaluate the full commercial agreement.
GGR to NGR bridge calculator
Create a transparent, simplified bridge between gross gaming revenue and a contract-specific net-gaming-revenue view.
Revenue and deduction assumptions
GGR and NGR questions
What is GGR?
GGR generally describes gaming revenue before the deductions selected in a specific agreement or report. The exact definition can vary.
What is NGR?
NGR is often a post-deduction revenue measure, but its definition is contractual and may differ between suppliers, affiliates and markets.
Uptime and SLA financial-impact calculator
Estimate the direct revenue exposure of a single outage and compare it with the downtime allowance implied by common SLA tiers.
Outage scenario
Questions to ask about an SLA
Does an SLA guarantee uptime?
No. An SLA defines a contractual service commitment and related remedies. Always check exclusions, measurement, maintenance windows and service-credit terms.
Why consider peak hours separately?
Revenue exposure may be uneven during the month. Use your own observed traffic and revenue pattern where available.

These examples remain visible without interacting with the calculator. They are illustrations only—not quotations, financial forecasts, legal advice or market benchmarks.
1. White label vs turnkey: 24-month comparison
Inputs
Monthly GGR: $200,000
Horizon:
24 months
Shared operating cost: $13,000/month
Scenario A
$10,000 setup + $3,000/month + 2%
of GGR
Modelled total: $562,000
Scenario B
$35,000 setup + $8,000/month + 0%
of GGR
Modelled total: $539,000
This model excludes licensing, taxes, marketing, working capital and anything not entered. A lower entered-cost total does not determine commercial suitability.
2. GGR to NGR bridge: monthly illustration
Starting point
Monthly GGR: $200,000
Monthly
deposits: $500,000
Entered deductions
Game content: 8% GGR
($16,000)
Bonus: 5% GGR ($10,000)
Payments: 2% deposits
($10,000)
Illustrative result
Other entered
deductions: $14,000
Modelled NGR: $150,000
NGR is a contractual and sometimes regulatory term. Confirm the definition, deductions and tax basis in the relevant agreements and market framework.
3. SLA impact: one outage scenario
Inputs
Monthly GGR: $200,000
Outage: 60
minutes
Peak-hours multiplier: 1.5
Direct model
30-day month: 43,200 minutes
Estimated
GGR per outage minute: $6.94
Illustrative result
Direct GGR exposure: about $417
99.9% monthly SLA allows 43.2 minutes of downtime.
This does not estimate reputation, support workload, SLA credits or future player behaviour. An SLA percentage is not a performance guarantee.
How to use these buyer tools
- Enter only figures supported by supplier proposals, financial plans or your own observed operating data.
- Compare the same launch scope and timeline across proposals.
- List exclusions separately: licensing, tax, marketing, working capital, integrations and jurisdiction-specific requirements.
- Review data ownership, implementation responsibilities, support coverage, APIs, exit provisions and market eligibility alongside cost.
- Use the output as a discussion brief, then obtain written commercial, technical and legal confirmation before making a decision.
