The Providers Behind Every Slot and Live Casino Table
When you play Gates of Olympus at Strendus, Sweet Bonanza at Caliente or Lightning Roulette at Betsson, you are not playing the casino's games. You are playing games by Pragmatic Play and Evolution — independent providers that develop the content and license it to operators.
Understanding who makes the games gives you practical information: you know what to expect in terms of RTP, volatility, mechanics and quality. And you know where to look if a specific provider interests you.
We evaluated 6 providers that dominate the online casino market in Mexico and Argentina.

What Does This Mean for You as a Player?
If you like high-volatility slots with huge max wins: look for casinos with Pragmatic Play (Gates of Olympus, Sweet Bonanza) or Hacksaw Gaming (Wanted Dead or a Wild). Rushbet has both.
If you prefer live casino: Evolution is the standard. Lightning Roulette and Crazy Time are at most of the casinos we evaluated. Betsson has an exclusive studio.
If you're after classics you know from land-based casinos: Novomatic/Greentube (Book of Ra, Lucky Lady's Charm). Available online at Rushbet.
If you value narrative and characters: Play'n GO created the Rich Wilde franchise with 15+ connected games. Available at Strendus, Codere and Rushbet.
If you want massive progressive jackpots: NetEnt has Mega Fortune (record €17.86M) and Divine Fortune. Available at Bplay, Betsson and GuazuBet.
A Note on RTP
The RTPs published by providers are default values. Operators can configure different values within the ranges allowed by their regulator. The same slot can have a different RTP at Caliente and at Strendus.
There is no way to verify the exact RTP configured by each operator on each game. The values we publish in each provider's reviews are the default RTPs from the official spec sheets.
