Microgaming Games Portfolio
There are around 300 online games available in the
standard Microgaming package available as internet
downloads or an interactive Flash version. Online
games include slots, blackjack, poker and roulette.
The Microgaming Progressive Jackpot Network is
the largest of its kind and holds a number of
records including the first online casino million
dollar payout, as well as the largest jackpot ever
paid - over $5.5 million last year on the Mega
Moolah progressive slot.
Operators Using the Software
Over a hundred casinos are operated by Microgaming
and operators included in their portfolio are Carmen
Media Group, 32Red, Golden Star Lounge, Vegas
Partner Lounge, Fortune Lounge Group and more
importantly, Ladbrokes who have partnered with
Microgaming Poker Network and are offering $1
million jackpots each month with effect from
February 2009.
Over the last five years, very few Microgaming
powered casinos have gone out of business. This is a
testament to Microgaming's strict criteria when
issuing licenses for its software. Microgaming has
recently targeted big name brands and signed up the
likes of Ladbrokes, the biggest bookmaker in the
world.
Other Products
A number of Microgaming casinos operate mobile
online casinos using the company's mobile casino
product.
An affiliated company also provides online poker
gaming under the banner Microgaming Poker and
includes Texas Hold'Em and five and seven card stud
- formerly this company was known as Prima Poker
though the name for this style of play continues to
be used operationally and particularly as they
sponsor the Monte Carlo Millions poker competition.
In 2008, Microgaming also launched a bingo product.
Microgaming is closely aligned with the
independent industry watchdog,
eCOGRA, who certify operators and regularly test
their player protection processes and ensure they
follow fair and transparent practices when it comes
to player information and financial transactions.
