Updated: October 2026 (27 October). By Alexander, Founder, Gambling Soft. Prices and timelines checked on 27 October 2026.
Short answer: an online casino can be launched in under two weeks only on a platform that already exists: a white label, a ready casino with source code or a turnkey package. Custom development takes months. Gambling Soft publishes its launch time: 7 business days after the advance payment for a white label, a ready casino or a turnkey package, with prices from $2,833 (white label), $7,500 (turnkey) and $8,500 (source code). Most other B2B vendors quote the timeline individually after a sales call; a few publish ranges of 4 to 8 weeks for a white label and longer for a custom build.
What "launch in one week" includes
A launch means a casino that accepts registrations, deposits and bets on your domain. At Gambling Soft the 7 business days after the advance payment cover the steps below; the day split is a typical plan, the payment stages (three parts of 1/3) are from the price list.
| Days | What happens | What you provide |
|---|---|---|
| Day 0 | Contract and advance payment (1/3 of the price) | Choice of product and brand, domain name, company details |
| Days 1-2 | Installation of the platform on hosting (ours or yours), domain and SSL, mirrors for the packages that include them | DNS access or a domain registered through us |
| Days 2-4 | Games connected (about 6,000 titles from the most popular providers in every product), payment gateways and crypto cashier, languages and currencies | Payment accounts or crypto wallets, base currency |
| Days 4-6 | Logo, colours and texts, bonus system, affiliate program, admin roles; second payment (1/3) | Logo and texts, or our defaults |
| Day 7 | Test deposits and withdrawals, handover of the admin panel, documentation, final payment (1/3) | Acceptance |
The licence runs in parallel and is not part of the 7 days: a gaming licence with company registration takes weeks to months depending on the jurisdiction (Anjouan $28,000, Tobique $50,000, Kahnawake $60,000, Malta $70,000, Curacao $75,000). An operator who already holds a licence can go live on day 7; a new operator gets the installed casino and prepares it (texts, bonuses, payments) until the licence arrives.

| SoftSwiss | Managed platform, white label | On request | On request |
| Slotegrator | White label, turnkey | On request | On request |
| NuxGame | White label, turnkey, API | On request | On request |

How the table was built: vendor websites read on 27 October 2026. "On request" means the vendor publishes neither a launch time nor a price. We did not ask the other vendors for quotes; a white label elsewhere is often delivered within two to four weeks once the contract and the licence are in place, but that is a quote, not a published commitment.
Why a ready platform launches in a week and custom development does not
- The code already runs. Gambling Soft operates 20 brands of its own on the same platform; a new brand is an installation, not a project. The engine has 40 modules, an admin panel on Symfony 6.4, a poker room, 19 themes and 469 database migrations that install reproducibly.
- Games are already integrated. About 6,000 games from 80+ providers are connected through five bridges in every product; the official package of 25,000+ games is a switch, not an integration.
- Payments are already integrated. 11 payment gateways and a crypto module on 5 networks with automatic and manual payouts; the operator supplies accounts, not code.
- Custom development starts from zero. A platform written to order needs months for the wallet, the admin panel, the game and payment integrations and the testing; vendors that publish ranges put a custom build at several months.
Which product launches fastest?
| Product | Price | Launch | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| White label (Violet and other brands) | 1/3 of the brand's code price + 8% of profit | 7 business days | Test of a market, smallest budget |
| Ready casino with source code (Violet $8,500 to Velvet $47,500) | One-time, no platform share | 7 business days | Own servers, own code, long horizon |
| Turnkey packages (Casino Lite to Casino + Betting Premium) | $7,500 to $59,000 + 7-15% of GGR | 7 business days | Own domain without technical staff |
| Telegram casino for an existing operator | $5,200 | 7 business days | A second channel for a casino already on our platform |
All products are paid in three equal parts of 1/3 per stage and carry a 12-month warranty. Demo sites and admin panel access are available before payment on request.
What slows a launch down, and how to avoid it
- Payment accounts. Card acquiring takes weeks of onboarding; crypto wallets take a day. Start with crypto and add cards when the acquirer approves you.
- Licence. Apply before you order the platform; the platform will wait for the licence, not the other way round.
- Design changes. A ready theme launches in the week; a unique design (included in the Premium package) adds its own timeline.
- Content. Terms, bonus rules and support texts in each language; we provide defaults, your lawyer edits them.
- Domain. A domain registered through us is ready on day 1; a domain at another registrar needs DNS access.
