What Is a Casino API?

How casino APIs connect platforms to game content, and what to look for before integrating.

By CasinoAPI Editorial Team · Published · Updated

Definition

A casino API is a set of endpoints and callbacks that let a gaming platform list, launch and settle casino games supplied by content providers.

The three core flows

Almost every casino integration comes down to three flows.

  • Catalog: retrieve games, metadata and availability
  • Launch: create a session and get a game URL for a player
  • Wallet: process bet, win and rollback transactions

Seamless vs transfer wallet

In a seamless wallet, the game calls your wallet for every transaction and your platform stays the single source of truth. In a transfer wallet, funds move into a provider-side balance. Seamless wallets are generally simpler to reconcile.

Choosing an integration model

You can integrate providers one by one, or connect through an aggregation layer. The guide on game aggregation covers the trade-offs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is a casino API the same as a game aggregator?

Not exactly. An aggregator is one way to deliver a casino API that covers many providers at once.
