B2B casino describes the companies that sell to casino operators and never to players. Studios, aggregators and platform suppliers all sit in that group, one step behind the lobby you open. It is the supplier half of the chain described on the casino affiliate chain overview, and this page shows who is in it.
What B2B means in the casino business
B2B stands for business to business, and B2C stands for business to consumer. The table shows where each kind of casino company sits.
| Type | Its customer | Example in this site’s data |
|---|---|---|
| B2B | An operator | Pragmatic Play, JILI, CQ9 |
| B2C | A player | The operator whose lobby you register at |
| Referral | A reader | Affiliate sites like this one |
A B2B company never holds your account and never sees your cashier, so no studio or platform supplier can release a withdrawal for you. A game from JILI or Pragmatic Play reaches you through the operator, so any dispute about a balance belongs to the operator.
Studios as B2B suppliers
Studios are the clearest B2B example. Pragmatic Play’s data entry cites a Malta Gaming Authority B2B Critical Supply Licence, casino vertical, shown on the MGA’s own verification portal with status Licensed. JILI lists GLI and BMM Testlabs among its certifications.
Read each studio’s own profile on the Pragmatic Play studio page and the game providers hub. Studios deliver through the layer explained on the game aggregator page.
Turnkey casino: a lobby bought as a package
A turnkey casino is a ready-built operation that a supplier hands over complete, so the buyer starts trading without building the technology. The package usually bundles a platform, a game catalogue, payment connections and back-office tools. The buyer, who becomes the operator, still needs the licence its regulator requires. Reading a package list line by line shows which parts are bought in and which stay with the brand.
| Component | Supplied by | Held by the player’s operator |
|---|---|---|
| Platform | B2B supplier | Brand, rules |
| Game catalogue | Studios, aggregator | Lobby layout |
| Player account and cashier | Operator | Yes |
IGaming platform: the software under the lobby
An iGaming platform is the software that runs the player account, the wallet, the game launch and the reporting. It is the piece an operator cannot do without, and many operators buy it rather than build it. The platform decides how games and accounts connect, and the operator decides what the player sees.
PAGCOR’s electronic gaming page describes the arrangement in its own words: gaming venues operate through the combined efforts of operators, service providers and suppliers of gaming equipment and paraphernalia.
What PAGCOR says about B2B providers
PAGCOR’s announcements page for its Electronic Gaming Licensing Department lists memoranda that name B2B providers directly.
| Memorandum | Date |
|---|---|
| Transition Guidelines for the Existing Business-To-Business (B2b) Providers and Implementation of the Regulatory Framework | 9 October 2025 |
| Compliance with the Application for Accreditation of Contracted Business-to-Business (B2B) Providers | 21 May 2026 |
| Provisions on Post-Operational Activities for GSAs and B2B Providers | 13 July 2026 |
The titles show that PAGCOR handles contracted B2B providers as a category of its own. To check a brand and a domain against PAGCOR’s lists yourself, follow the PIGO license lists walk-through.
FAQ

Business to business. The customer of a B2B company is a casino operator, never the person placing the bet.

A B2C company, the operator, sells to players and holds their accounts. A B2B company sells games, platforms or services to the operator.
What is a turnkey casino?
It is a ready-built operation bought as a package from a supplier, so the buyer launches a lobby without building the technology from scratch.
Do B2B companies need a licence?
Regulators set their own rules for suppliers. PAGCOR's memos name B2B providers as an accredited category, and Pragmatic Play's data lists a Malta B2B Critical Supply Licence.
