Playtech in Ontario: Playtech is one of the largest technology suppliers in online gambling: slots, live casino, poker and the platforms many operators run on. Here is who makes the games, which titles are worth knowing, what RTP to expect and where you can play them legally in Ontario.
Who is Playtech?
Playtech was founded in 1999 in Estonia and is listed on the London Stock Exchange. Besides its own slots it supplies casino platforms, live dealer studios (Playtech Live) and sports-betting technology to regulated operators, and it owns the Quickspin studio.
What are the best-known Playtech games?
- Age of the Gods: a series of slots linked to a four-level progressive jackpot.
- Great Blue: classic underwater slot with free spins and multipliers (RTP 96.03% in the standard version).
- Buffalo Blitz: 4,096 ways to win with free spins (RTP 95.96% in the standard version).
- Quantum Roulette: live roulette with random multipliers (Playtech Live).
What RTP should you expect from Playtech games in Ontario?
Jackpot slots such as the Age of the Gods series usually have a lower base RTP, because part of every bet feeds the jackpot. If you are playing through a bonus, a non-jackpot slot is normally cheaper. Not sure what RTP means? Read our RTP explainer.
Do Playtech games count toward bonus wagering?
Slots usually count 100% toward wagering requirements, so the expected cost of wagering is simply the house edge. With Great Blue at 96.03% RTP, every $1,000 wagered costs about $40 on average. Table and live games usually count much less (often 10% or 0%), which multiplies their real cost. The formula is: expected cost = amount to wager × (house edge ÷ contribution %). You can run your own numbers in our wagering requirement calculator.
Where can you play Playtech games in Ontario?
In Ontario, real-money online casino games are only legal at operators registered with the AGCO that operate under an agreement with iGaming Ontario. Playtech games are available at many of them, but each casino chooses its own catalogue and RTP versions. Compare them in our list of licensed Ontario operators, or browse other game providers.
