10JILI PG Soft: Licences, RTP Policy & Catalogue

Everything below is shaped by one fact: PG Soft supplies games to operators instead of running a casino itself.

Who PG Soft is

A catalogue size is not published. How many titles it has, the studio does not say.

Whether PG Soft publishes RTP

The game pages PG Soft runs itself carry a return-to-player figure, so a quoted RTP for any of its titles can be tied back to the studio and not to an aggregator.

PG Soft keeps RTP in its game data yet leaves it off the visible page, where the field shows only a blank dash; the figure is in the data the server delivers with the page. Since every value read this way agreed with independent consensus on that title, the numbers are real. The right wording remains ‘per PG Soft’s published game data’; ‘as shown on PG Soft’s page’ would be wrong because a reader looking will find only a dash.

This matters more than it sounds. How good a return-to-player figure is depends wholly on its source, and a number bounced between comparison sites with no primary source behind it proves nothing.

PG Soft in the Philippine market

For Pocket Games Soft there is a PAGCOR EGLD approved-games list, a content approval rather than an operator licence. Reports commonly name PG Soft among the busiest slot providers on Philippine sites licensed by PAGCOR, yet those reports originate with affiliate sources, not PG Soft.

Titles covered on this site

This site has its own page for 3 PG Soft titles: Fortune Tiger, Mahjong Ways, Wild Bandito.

PG Soft’s own pages feature these titles: Wild Bandito, Lucky Neko, Fortune Ox, Fortune Tiger, Mahjong Ways 2. What you are seeing is the studio’s promotion of its own catalogue. Which of them a casino carries is not something it addresses, and neither is which have pages here.

Licences the studio holds

PG Soft is recorded as holding: Malta Gaming Authority, The UK Gambling Commission and Gibraltar, according to PG Soft’s listing. Holding a studio licence does not equal holding an operator licence: the first covers the company that builds the games, the second the casino that offers them, and a player’s recourse goes through the operator’s regulator, not the studio’s.

• Malta Gaming Authority — C 76195 is the company number given for Pocket Games Software Limited, which holds licence MGA/B2B/435/2017. The MGA’s verification portal lists a B2B Critical Supply Licence, casino vertical, with the status Licensed. The MGA suspended that same licence with effect from 29 September 2020 for a compliance breach, and later reinstated it. The history is written down here since leaving it out would make the present status seem less eventful than it has really been.
• The UK Gambling Commission and Gibraltar, according to PG Soft’s listing — Each of the two has its badge shown at PG Soft’s own licensing page. Only the MGA licence above was traced to a public register, whereas these two appear as PG Soft lists them.
