iGaming Software Providers: The Full Stack in 2026

An iGaming software provider builds one layer of the stack an online casino or sportsbook runs on. Platform providers supply the player account system, wallet, and back office. Game aggregators deliver the game catalog through one integration. Payment providers run the cashier and the acquiring behind it. Sportsbook suppliers price and trade the betting markets, KYC vendors verify the players, and affiliate software runs the partner program. The biggest vendors cover two or three layers, and none covers all seven well, which is why operators buy the stack in pieces.

A white label casinostarts at $10,000 to $30,000 in setup fees plus a revenue share, with the provider's license included. Turnkey software starts around $11,000 plus roughly 10% revenue share on published entry pricing, and the license is yours to get: about EUR 22,000 packaged for a first year in Anjouan, around EUR 52,300 in Curacao, or about EUR 30,000 in Malta fees plus EUR 100,000 in locked capital. After launch the recurring lines take over: 5 to 15% of game GGR to the aggregator, 2.5 to 5% of every transaction to the payment provider, KYC at $0.55 to $5 per check, and affiliate software from EUR 2,500 a month.

A white label runs under the provider's gambling license: platform, games, and payments come in one contract, launch takes weeks, and you pay a setup fee plus a revenue share while the provider controls payments and player funds. Turnkey means your own license with the provider's software on top: launch takes months because licensing comes first, but you own the player data, choose the payment stack, and keep more margin. The usual path is white label first, then turnkey once volume justifies the licensing work. We rank 7 white label and 13 turnkey providers separately.

Fewer than the seven categories suggest, more than one. Platform contracts usually bundle game aggregation, and several platform vendors ship their own affiliate modules, so a white label or turnkey deal can cover three or four layers at signature. Payments and KYC almost always stay separate purchases, because coverage is market-specific and operators run several providers side by side. The stack map above shows which layers bundle and which stay standalone.

Three anchor classes. Public registers first: license claims are clicked in the UKGC, MGA, FCA, BCB, and US state registers, and register-checked vendors are marked across the directory. Live trails second: cashier pages on operators' real sites, powered-by credits on live affiliate programs, and game catalogs counted on live casinos. Filings third: annual reports, investor decks, and company registries for ownership and scale. Commercial terms come from sales decks, private quotes, and operators who signed the deals, and every figure carries the date we checked it.

Underneath it. The license decides which payment providers will onboard you, which markets the platform may serve, and what compliance tooling the regulator expects, so it is procurement line one even though it is not software. A white label deal rents the provider's license and skips the question at launch. Everyone else picks a jurisdiction: our guides price 11of them from the regulators' own fee schedules, from Anjouan's packaged first year to Brazil's R$30 million grant.
