Platform
Platform evaluations and suggestions. The right platform is your core and another key factor for your daily business, innovation and growth. iGaming Consult has run a platform evaluation to show you the comparison and make sure you may chose the right product for your selected markets, needs and budget.
Ask us for our platform comparison Each market, service provider, product and license has its own requirements and restrictions, either you will work on your own license or on a sub-license with a white label.
Decisions are, but not only, to be settled on market share, mind share and platform coverage, number of available games and products, already integrated third party providers, flexible API, flexibility of the platform provider, as well as on procurement and pricing model.
"Shoes must fit or it hurts walking with them."
Provider
The question which games providers, which payment providers, affiliate management software, CRM tools, Customer Care software, chat system etc. is splitted into two sections. Either you go with your own license and a core platform, than we will have to chose from a selection of suggestions by the platform provider and may add others by free choice. If you go with a sub-license and a white label, it comes with a given variety of integrated games providers and third party tools. Depending on the platform provider, in this case there is only a limited choice of adding other services or providers.
Depending on the markets you will work on, there is a must-have spectrum given by your competitors, and you should have a bit more or something different to stand out of the crowd. Therefore the right choice of the whole product spectrum is essential to work out your USP. Most providers charge a five digit setup fee, means adding all of them to a new platform may cost you a fortune. Choosing instead the right platform and games aggregators with already a lot of integrated providers, saves you money and time.
IT Resources
Hiring full-time IT staff is not only expensive, it is nowadays more a question of time, money, availability and therefore scalability of IT resources. If you can't find fast enough the right software developers, you should think about outsourcing. Our recommendation is to built up a core team in-house, define based on your strategy the specifications, let the daily work developments or add-on features and non-core functionalities be programmed by a specialised, outsourced IT team which works on a project or dedicated for you, guided and controlled by your in-house core team.
We may provide you with the right European IT resources for your IT needs, either on a project base or as a full-time software development team. That means high scalability, flexibility and no hazzle with staff problems, in terms off sick- or holiday leaves, hiring or firing processes, that’s all managed by our IT service provider with approximately 800 high skilled software developers world-wide.
