Licences the studio holds
On record for Pragmatic Play: Malta Gaming Authority, UK Gambling Commission, and PAGCOR, the latter historical and no longer current. The company that makes the games holds a studio licence, while the casino offering them holds an operator licence — and a player’s recourse runs through the operator’s regulator, not the studio’s.
- Malta Gaming Authority — MGA/B2B/619/2018 sits under the name of Pragmatic Solutions MT Limited. For the casino vertical, the B2B Critical Supply Licence shows as Licensed on the MGA’s own verification portal, not on Pragmatic’s site.
- UK Gambling Commission — Account 56015 with licence 056015-R-332216-005 shows active for Pragmatic Play (Gibraltar) Limited according to the UKGC public register.
- PAGCOR — historical, and no longer current — Pragmatic Play’s September 2016 announcement covered a PAGCOR offshore gaming licence. PAGCOR confirmed the cancellation of all offshore licences once the Philippines abolished that entire framework, requiring their expiry by 31 December 2024. The 2016 announcement has never come down and keeps getting cited as though still current. It is not.
Pragmatic Play in the Philippine market
Between 2016 and the abolition of the regime at the end of 2024, a PAGCOR offshore licence was held. Rather than fall back on the 2016 announcement, this site calls Pragmatic’s current Philippine status unresolved, since Pragmatic itself says nothing about it.
Whether Pragmatic Play publishes RTP
An RTP for a Pragmatic Play title traces to the studio itself, given that Pragmatic Play publishes the figure on its own game pages.
Pragmatic’s own game pages carry just one RTP per title, and that number sits at the top of a set. Three configurations selectable by the operator apply to most titles according to independent records: 96.50 / 95.51 / 94.50 per cent for Gates of Olympus 1000 and 96.53 / 95.52 / 94.51 per cent for Sweet Bonanza 1000, none of which Pragmatic’s own pages disclose past the highest figure. A given operator may run something other than the configuration behind a quoted Pragmatic RTP, since that figure only shows the best one available.
This matters more than it sounds. Source is everything for a return-to-player figure: a number that comparison sites simply repeat, with no primary source behind it, demonstrates nothing.
Titles covered on this site
This site has its own page for 1 Pragmatic Play title: Gates of Olympus.
On its own pages, Pragmatic Play showcases Wolf Gold, Sugar Rush, Sweet Bonanza, Gates of Olympus and The Dog House. That’s the studio talking up its own catalogue. Whether a casino carries any of them, or whether they have pages here, isn’t addressed.
