Online casino software

[ugnali]

Hi guys, i want some advice.
I have a team of programmers in Russia that are willing to start a project with me on development of online casino software.
Is there a big market for this software?
What does it have to have and what are the services that it should provide to be competative?
Thanks.

Yes it's very competative and cost intensive. To say nothing of the international laws you have to deal with. Many of the large developers own/owned there own online casinos before lisencing their product to others. Most serious online players actually choose their sites based on who the software developer is. Kinda like the way video gamers will choose a platform, based on the style of games. Boss Media, Cryptologic and Playtech are among the leaders. The money tranfers need to be secure and seamless. Again, some of the big boye developed their own, that have now become the industry standard. The regular pay systems are not an option, like PayPal, Stormpay etc.

e-cash, WebDollar, Firepay, Neteller, Playsafe are among the co's that handle online casino gambling transactions.
