About NetEnt

Gambling historians will be quick to point out that online casino gambling came to the Internet in the mid-1990s. In need of software developers to answer the call for game creation were three companies: Microgaming, Net Entertainment, and Playtech. Amazingly, all three of these companies still rule the online casino gambling community.

Through hard work and innovation, Net Entertainment, now NetEnt, has risen to the status of “top dog.” The company got its start in 1996 coming out of Sweden. Today, they offer a full-service online casino platform as well as hundreds of the best online casino games ever innovated.

Note: NetEnt was purchased by Evolution Gaming in 2020. They operate under licenses and regulations from the UK Gambling Commission and the Malta Gaming Authority.

Company Background

Everything that NetEnt produces is proprietary. That includes the company’s full-service online casino as well as hundreds of online casino games that can easily be integrated into most other online casino platforms.

In the early years, the company struggled to create exciting games because of software development limitations. With the advent of HTML5 software development technology in early 2008, a whirlwind was released. This was the starting point when NetEnt software developers went to work creating magnificent video slots and table games, arguably some of the best in history.

With NetEnt, casino operators can contract to receive the entire NetEnt online casino platform. That would include a bonus module, customer service module, and affiliates module. They can also contract for nothing more than the software developer’s top online casino games. The popularity of NetEnt’s games is evident by the fact that at least one game can be found on 200+ available online casino sites.

The Games

Always in direct competition with Microgaming, games development is arguably where NetEnt won the war for top-dog status. With a games library that includes 200+ video slots and video poker and over a hundred standard and live casino table games.

Note: Under the ownership of Evolution Gaming, NetEnt is one of the very few software developers that is participating heavily in the live casino game development space.

Flexibility is the key to the NetEnt software platform. It is fully compatible with the iOS (Apple) and Android operating systems and it works equally with other operating systems in enhanced software mode. Not one to cut itself off from the rest of the software development community, NetEnt has created a platform that allows for fast and easy integration of games from dozens of software developers located throughout the world.

In combination with its amazing games library, NetEnt’s software platform is among the most popular in the world.
