The amount you pay for your gambling software provider depends on several factors. This includes the type of account you're looking to open, how many games and variations you want to see. Besides that, the game platform is the foundation upon which your website will be built. Prices for such software range from C$10,000 to C$50,000 plus commission (15 to 60 percent). Real Time Gaming, Playtech, Microgaming, and Cryptologic are the most popular. Slot machines are sold alongside software for the gaming platform, but they can also be purchased separately. Prices range from C$200 to C$5,000 per game plus commission. It is preferable to purchase games in bulk from providers—less expensive, faster, and simpler. Playson, Microgaming, NetEnt, Evolution Gaming, and BetSoft are the most popular providers.
