The iGaming grapevine rattled hard this week as BGaming published multiple news reports on the brand’s news portal.

News of BGaming live in Germany brings the likes of Elvis Frog and Jonny Cash to German players, while the BGaming software provider also announced its games will go live on a crypto exchange platform.

With this comes a special FAQ page covering BGaming’s API integration capabilities, which is exactly what is being used for the cryptocurrency exchange.

Below, I cover all 3 news stories in brief:

BGaming crypto exchange debut—2 Likeminded Austrian CEOs John Force

Have you ever heard of a crypto exchange that also offers online casino gaming while you are trading or moving your virtual currencies? Now, with a new BGaming service, cryptocurrency exchanges can connect to the BGaming casino portfolio.

The Merkeleon cryptocurrency white label aggregator platform will now offer its crypto exchange customers the chance to connect to BGaming video slots, table games, fast games, crash and others. In short, crypto exchange brands operating under Merkeleon can now also become mini cryptocurrency casinos.

How does the new BGaming & Merkeleon Partnership Work?

The recent BGaming news report (published today, 30 June) highlights that the software provider now offers a B2B casino game delivery service specifically designed to allow crypto exchanges to add online casino games. And it the first company that appears to have signed up for BGaming’s new service is Merkeleon.

Most crypto gurus will not have heard of Merkeleon because it is a B2B services company, but you may have heard about some of the cryptocurrency exchange brands that use the platform. Merkeleon’s business model offers fintech crypto firms a white-label cryptocurrency platform. In other words, companies that want to set up a cryptocurrency exchange under their brand name call upon Merkeleon’s B2B services to rent the platform and then add their brand name effectively. Therefore, customers of the crypto exchange will rarely know they are using the Merkeleon platform.

Companies using the white label exchange include the reputable Swiss-regulated crypto exchange Monetum. The Estonian Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) licenced crypto processing and wallet firm Finectum uses the Merkeleon white label service. Both these firms are potential BGaming customers as they now have the option to add the software provider’s games to their crypto services sites.

On top of this, Merkeleon also has a line of eCommerce white-label platforms with an extensive customer portfolio. Those eComm stores are able to accept crypto and fiat currency payments. In effect, Merkeleon uses the same principles as the SOFTSWISS white-label online casino and sports book aggregation platform. SOFTSWISS is also well-known for offering ready-made white-label cryptocurrency casino aggregator platforms.

Both Merkeleon and SOFTSWISS are based in Austria. Fintech company Merkeleon’s CEO is Alexander Riedinger and the CEO and founder of the BGaming brand and SOFTSWISS is Ivan Montik. With the Austrian connection in place, BGamings’s affiliation with SOFTSWISS and the ‘white label market’ in online sports and casinos fits in perfectly with Merkeleon. It is two like-minded CEO’s bringing their white-label platforms together.

Special News Piece: BGaming API FAQs for B2B iGaming

An interesting publication on the BGaming website that recently popped up was its ‘API Integration Casino Games: Answers to FAQs’. It is a guide aimed at B2B customers, but also a fascinating insight for BGaming players interested in the tech side of how slots and other casino games reach their devices.

Questions covered by BGaming include:

  • What is API integration?
  • What opportunities does API integration offer for online gambling businesses?
  • How is the casino game API integration carried out?
  • What are the benefits of casino game API integration?
  • What does the client get via BGaming games API integration?

Some of the most important points to note for players is how API integration takes into account ‘safety’ and ‘variety of games’. Also, from a B2B customer’s point of view, BGaming has all bases covered from ‘access to multiplier markets’ to ‘single contract deals’.

BGaming Announce its Presence in Germany

Over on our sister site, players in Germany will be more than pleased to learn that they too can now play on BGaming software provider game titles. The site covers Swiss, German, and Austrian markets, all of which boast individual licenses, and requires that each brand holds a licence to supply casino games to online casinos in each jurisdiction.

To become compliant with the German iGaming market, BGaming has to implement technical improvements to all its online slots to fit the framework laid out in Germany.

Some of the rules in Germany for video slots include:

  • No less than 5 seconds spin time (no quick spins allowed)
  • Slots needed to remove the auto-play feature
  • Maximum bets per spin in Germany are €1.00
  • All games must provide descriptions in the German language
  • RTPs for every game must be clearly visible in the instructions

Games ready for a UK market: With these changes in mind, the BGaming software provider could feasibly prepare its game titles for the UK market. Each RNG already holds the necessary iTechlabs and BMM Test Labs certs. In the UK there are also no auto spins or quick spins, while spins must be at least 2.5 seconds.
