Titles covered on this site

This site has its own page for 4 Pragmatic Play titles: Sweet Bonanza 1000, Starlight Princess, Wild West Gold, Sweet Bonanza.

On its own pages, Pragmatic Play itself puts forward these titles: Sweet Bonanza, Gates of Olympus, The Dog House, Wolf Gold, Sugar Rush. Self-promotion by the studio, aimed at its own range of titles. Which of them a given casino carries, and which have pages on this site, are questions it leaves unanswered.

Whether Pragmatic Play publishes RTP

Since Pragmatic Play puts a return-to-player figure on its own game pages, an RTP quoted for one of its titles leads back to the studio and not an aggregator.

Each title gets one RTP on Pragmatic’s own game pages, and that number is the top of a set. Pragmatic’s pages do not disclose the lower configurations, although independent records show most titles ship in three operator-selectable versions, such as Gates of Olympus 1000 at 96.50 / 95.51 / 94.50 per cent and Sweet Bonanza 1000 at 96.53 / 95.52 / 94.51. So the RTP Pragmatic quotes is the best configuration on offer, which any given operator may or may not be running.

This matters more than it sounds. How much a return-to-player figure counts depends on its origin, and a number handed around by comparison sites with no primary source under it proves nothing.

Licences the studio holds

Pragmatic Play appears on record with these licences: Malta Gaming Authority, UK Gambling Commission, PAGCOR — historical, and no longer current. Holding a studio licence is different from holding an operator licence: it covers the company that makes the games and not the casino offering them, and a player’s recourse goes through the operator’s regulator, not the studio’s.

  • Malta Gaming Authority — The holder of licence MGA/B2B/619/2018 is Pragmatic Solutions MT Limited. The MGA’s own verification portal, not Pragmatic’s site, is where the B2B Critical Supply Licence in the casino vertical was confirmed, with status Licensed.
  • UK Gambling Commission — Active status is confirmed on the UKGC public register for Pragmatic Play (Gibraltar) Limited, account 56015, licence 056015-R-332216-005.
  • PAGCOR — historical, and no longer current — Pragmatic Play made an announcement in September 2016 about its PAGCOR offshore gaming licence. Since then the entire framework has been abolished by the Philippines, with every offshore licence required to expire by 31 December 2024 and PAGCOR confirming the cancellation. Still online, the 2016 announcement continues to be quoted as though it were current. It is not.

Pragmatic Play in the Philippine market

A PAGCOR offshore licence was held from 2016, but the regime ended when it was abolished at the end of 2024. With Pragmatic saying nothing about where it stands in the Philippines today, this site keeps that status unresolved and skips the 2016 announcement.
