Of the major online gambling software developers, Real Time Gaming is the only one that was established in the United States. In 1999, the company was founded in Atlanta, Georgia, but moved to Costa Rica in 2007. Perhaps because of its origin, Real Time Gaming, sometimes called RTG, is one of the few large software companies that still accept American customers.

One of the first companies to create online casino software, Real Time Gaming is also among the most trusted. They license their software to a number of casinos, each one safe and fair according to RTG’s standards. One thing that makes Real Time Gaming different from most of their competitors is that they do less micromanaging. Other software companies dictate many rules and regulations for the casino, leaving the casino effectively as nothing more than a location for the software company’s games. With Real Time Gaming, the casinos have more freedom to operate as they wish, as long as they continue to meet RTG’s standards. That increased freedom and responsibility for the casino leads to more variety within the licensed casinos and more unique gameplay and features. The downside is that the payout rates for the games can vary from casino to casino.

Real Time Gaming doesn’t have a graphic quality as good as some of the top providers and they are not as big as Microgaming or Playtech. However, they make up for that in the speed of the games and the ease of their play. Real Time Gaming also has perhaps the best video poker software in the industry. In addition, their “Real Series” of online slots are among the most popular slot games on the market, including popular branded titles.

Real Time Gaming boasts over 100 games that are available as downloads or to play instantly in your Internet browser. Each game is available as real money games and in free play versions, allowing customers to get acquainted with the game before wagering any money. RTG has a large network of progressive jackpot games, which can carry large payouts. The software company also provides a detailed account history that you can use to track deposits, losses and wins.

Real Time Gaming software has been approved and accredited by Technical Systems Testing (TST). The company is active in the Interactive Gaming Council and the Interactive Gaming, Gambling and Betting Association (iGGBA).
