Casino platform buyer’s checklist
Use these questions to compare white-label, turnkey or platform proposals on a like-for-like basis. It is a planning aid for qualified B2B projects, not legal or regulatory advice.
Platform access does not automatically provide a gambling licence. Market permissions, operator responsibilities, payment availability and compliance requirements must be verified for each project.
15 questions to answer before selecting a supplier
- What are the exact setup, monthly, variable, minimum-term and change-request fees?
- Which features, suppliers and markets are specifically excluded from the quoted scope?
- Who owns player, transaction, reporting and configuration data, and how can it be exported?
- Which game-aggregation and direct-provider dependencies apply?
- Which payment, KYC, AML and fraud tools are available for each intended market?
- Who is responsible for operator licensing, market approval and ongoing compliance?
- Which back-office roles, reporting controls and audit evidence are included?
- What is the implementation plan, dependency list and acceptance criteria?
- What support coverage, escalation route, SLA measurement and exclusions apply?
- What APIs, integrations and technical documentation are available?
- What data-export, transition-assistance and exit provisions are contractual?
- How are privacy, security and responsible-gambling responsibilities allocated?
- What CRM, affiliate, marketing and retention tooling is needed beyond the platform scope?
- How do taxes, payment fees, bonus costs and partner costs affect the financial model?
- Which commercial, technical and compliance commitments will be confirmed in writing?
Use it with the calculators
Start with the white-label vs turnkey cost calculator, make deductions explicit in the GGR to NGR bridge, then review service-risk assumptions with the uptime and SLA calculator.
