How much does it cost to open an online casino?

A ready casino platform with source code from Gambling Soft costs from $8,500 (Violet) to $47,500 (Velvet); a Telegram casino costs $5,200. Add a gaming license (from $28,000 for Anjouan with company registration), hosting and marketing.

What is the difference between source code and white label?

With source code you get the full platform code on your server under a perpetual licence for a one-time payment: modify it and use it in any number of your own projects. White label costs one third of the source-code price plus 8% of profit and gives access to the admin panel without the code.

Which games and payments are included?

About 1,200 slots are included and can be expanded to 14,000+ games from 70+ providers; payments via bank cards and 20+ cryptocurrencies with automatic and manual payouts.

Do you help with a gaming license?

Yes: Anjouan ($28,000), Tobique ($50,000), Kahnawake ($60,000), Malta ($70,000) and Curacao ($75,000) licenses with company registration.

What do I pay after the purchase?

Only games: 15% of GGR for the official package, or 9%, 8%, 7% or 15% of the GGR of games in a turnkey package. The platform has no monthly fee. Hosting after the included period, domain, payment providers and marketing are your own contracts; optional support is $1,980 per 40 hours.

What rights do I get with the source code?

A perpetual licence to the full platform code on your server: modify it, use it in any number of your own projects and run casinos for other operators as a service (white label). Only the licensing module is encoded (3 files); the code may not be resold or transferred. Payment is in three equal parts and the warranty is 12 months.

Payment for a purchase is always in three equal parts of 1/3 per stage; warranty 12 months.

Definitions and validity

Prices are valid for 30 days from the “Updated” date above; after that, ask for a current quote. Custom work is quoted separately.
GGR (gross gaming revenue) = players’ bets minus players’ winnings, before bonuses and taxes. The 15% share on the official slots package is charged on GGR of those games.
Profit for the white label share (8%) = GGR minus bonuses and payment provider fees, calculated monthly from the platform reports.
Launch in 7 business days means the technical launch: the platform is installed, configured and accepting registrations. Accepting real money depends on your license and payment providers, which we help to connect.
Acceptance (UAT): you test the configured platform against the agreed list of modules before the final payment; found defects are fixed before acceptance.
Warranty (12 months) covers defects of the delivered software; changes of scope and third-party services are not covered.

How payment and launch work

You choose a platform (ready brand or source code), a license if needed and payment providers.
We issue an invoice. Stage 1: advance. Stage 2: after the demo of your configured platform. Stage 3: after acceptance (UAT).
Launch of a ready platform takes 7 business days after the advance. Custom development is estimated separately.
You receive the source code, documentation, installation on your hosting, staff training and 12 months of warranty.

There are no other charges from Gambling Soft: the software has no monthly fee of its own, only games are paid as a share of their GGR. The public demo sites show the maximum build; before the second payment you receive access to your own installed platform in the configuration you paid for, so acceptance is done on exactly what you buy.

FAQ

Is the price a one-time payment?

Yes for source-code products: you pay once and get the full platform code on your server under a perpetual licence (any number of your own projects, white label included). Official games are paid separately (15% of GGR), and white label carries an 8% profit share.

Are there hidden fees?

No. Hosting, domain, payment providers’ fees and marketing are your own costs; we tell you the expected amounts before the invoice.

Can I see the products before paying?

Yes: live demo sites and admin panel access on request via Telegram (@GamblingSoftOriginal) or WhatsApp (+357 96 566 090).

Do prices change by country?

No. Prices are the same worldwide; local payment providers and licenses are chosen for your target markets.

What is the cheapest way to start?

Telegram casino ($5,200) if you already operate a casino, or Violet ($8,500) with an Anjouan license ($28,000) for a new operator.

Does the demo match what I buy?

The public demo shows the maximum build with poker, sportsbook and official slots installed. Your package or brand is delivered in the configuration listed on its product page; before the second payment you receive access to your own installed platform and check it against the specification.

Which percentages apply to which games?

Only games are paid as a share of GGR (bets minus player winnings on those games): 15% for the official package, and 9%, 8%, 7% or 15% for the games included in a turnkey package. The platform itself has no revenue share and no monthly fee.

Can I run casinos for other operators on my platform?

Yes. The licence allows any number of your own projects and running casinos for other operators as a service on your infrastructure (white label). Passing the code itself to third parties or publishing it is prohibited (terms of work, clause 8).
