Does an orchestration platform need a payment license?+
No. It routes transactions between your cashier and licensed PSPs without holding funds, so no EMI or PI authorization applies. Praxis states it verbatim in its footer, and none of the five vendors here holds one. The compliance you can check is PCI DSS and ISO attestations.
What does orchestration cost on top of PSP fees?+
Corefy is the only vendor publishing numbers: EUR 2,500 a month for 10,000 transactions or EUR 6,000 for 100,000, with overage rates. The other four quote on request, and reported figures circulating for them trace to sources we could not verify, so we do not print them.
Which orchestrators are pre-integrated with casino platforms?+
Praxis lists SOFTSWISS, Playtech, Delasport, and SoftGamings on its live integrations page, with a fifth, NuxGame, confirmed from the platform side rather than Praxis's own page. Separately, Corefy runs NuxGame's PSP routing. The same platform uses both vendors for different jobs, and both connections are sourced. PaymentIQ publishes no integration list at all since its relaunch, which is itself worth knowing.
Why do connector counts disagree even on the same vendor's site?+
Because nobody maintains it as an inventory. In July 2026 Praxis showed 600+ on its homepage and 540+ on its about page the same day, Corefy's public catalog counted exactly 600 against a 650+ claim on one iGaming page, and BridgerPay's 1,000+ footer figure pools methods and providers while its own gaming page hedges at hundreds of PSPs. The practical move is to ignore the headline and have the vendor confirm, in the contract, the specific PSPs and methods your markets need.
Which orchestration platforms still market to iGaming?+
Three of five. Praxis runs gaming press releases with named operators, Corefy sells openly to casino and betting merchants, and BridgerPay keeps a dedicated gaming vertical with BtoBet and Bet7 on the record. PaymentIQ's relaunched site is vertical-neutral with zero gambling mentions even though its public cashier demo still ships a Gambling Demo mode, and IXOPAY's newest gambling content dates to January 2020. Both products still process gambling volume. What you lose is references, roadmap, and account teams that know the vertical.
Can I take my card tokens with me if I switch PSPs or leave the orchestrator?+
It depends on the vault. IXOPAY's TokenEx side is the strongest portability story in the set, with vendor-neutral universal tokens (2.1B+ stored as of January 2026), network tokens, and an account updater. Praxis runs Token Lite and Corefy a card vault with hosted fields, both of which keep card data out of your PCI scope while you stay. Whoever you pick, get token export terms in writing before go-live, because portability promised in a sales deck is not portability in a contract.
Can a US state-regulated operator use one of these orchestrators?+
Effectively no. Praxis excludes US-facing brands in its written policy, and none of the five holds a state gaming vendor registration. State rules like Pennsylvania's require certification for anything touching player accounts. What US operators actually deploy is orchestration built into their processor: Nuvei and Worldpay bundle routing, cascading, and a cashier into regulated-market acquiring contracts, which is a different purchase we cover in the high-risk payment processors guide.
