Licences the studio holds
Licences on record for Evolution: the Malta Gaming Authority, the UK Gambling Commission, plus Approximately twenty further jurisdictions. Don’t equate the two: a studio licence belongs to the company producing the games, an operator licence to the casino putting them in front of players, and it’s always the operator’s regulator, never the studio’s, that handles player recourse.
- Malta Gaming Authority — Licence number MGA/CRP/187/2010 belongs to Evolution Gaming Malta Limited. Casino vertical, B2B Critical Supply Licence, Licensed status — that’s what the MGA’s verification portal confirms.
- UK Gambling Commission — Since October 2015 Account 41655 has carried a gambling software licence, and since August 2021 a game host (casino) licence, both remote and active. In July 2026, regulators agreed a £4.75m settlement after a review uncovered anti-money-laundering failings that had let unlicensed sites offer UK players Evolution games. Because it sits on the regulator’s own public register, this gets recorded here, even though the settlement was merely a public statement, not a suspension, and the licence stays active.
- Approximately twenty further jurisdictions — Licensed jurisdictions named on Evolution’s own compliance page run from Belgium and Bulgaria through Denmark, Gibraltar, Greece, the Isle of Man, Latvia, Romania, Spain, Sweden, South Africa and Curacao, alongside several US states and Canadian provinces, among others.
Evolution in the Philippine market
Working with local partner One Visaya Gaming, it debuted its first Asian live-casino studio in Cebu in 2025. August 2025 saw the revocation of OVG’s own PAGCOR B2C licence, yet the Cebu studio hasn’t stopped streaming to operators, doing so under its own separate B2B licence. A separate live-dealer list carrying PAGCOR EGLD approval covers Evolution too.
Titles covered on this site
PHTAYA has no Evolution title guide. Evolution appears on PHTAYA for its licensing record rather than its catalogue.
Evolution puts these four on display across its own pages: Lightning Roulette, Crazy Time, Immersive Roulette, Monopoly Live. All that is, at bottom, is the studio giving its own catalogue some exposure. Neither casino availability for these titles nor their coverage on this site gets a mention here.
Whether Evolution publishes RTP
An RTP quoted for any Evolution title can be traced back to the studio instead of an aggregator, since Evolution posts a return-to-player figure on its own game pages.
The RTP-publishing label fits Evolution’s game-show titles, since figures from third-party sources line up the same way each time.
This matters more than it sounds. A return-to-player number gains no credibility just from appearing on multiple comparison sites; without a primary source, that repetition is meaningless.

- A game’s stake range and paytable both appear on its info screen — worth a look before you play.
- Lock in a session budget before anything else, then keep the opening stake modest as a new title becomes familiar.
