The most common form of the online casino is obtaining downloadable software usually for free once the gambler surfs to any online casino on the internet. In fact, many sites offer the download as an automatic process to encourage gamblers to play for fun or money, besides bonuses and other incentives.



An online casino offers as the main advantage, to allow you to take the gambling room to the comfort of your home by just installing the software that connects to the online casino service, which handles all contact without any browser support. This makes any game easy and faster to play. Audio, video and graphics reside inside the application and there you will not have any waiting time for the games to load as you do when you are playing through the web browser.









Downloadable software offered by an online casino may include a single game or a number of popular games including poker, video poker, blackjack, baccarat, slot machines, roulette, and craps, among the most popular casino games, also available outside many land-based casinos where they are playable on simulation machines.



As soon as the first online casinos started to operate, online casino software began its development. One of the first companies producing casino games was Random Logic, founded in 1996 and currently licensing its software consisting of 6 video poker games, 5 progressive jackpots and 15 new slots, to Cassava Enterprises with exclusive rights.



This company also implements and develops online transaction processing systems and other tools for tracking and analyzing internet-marketing campaigns, including but not limited to the gambling industry. This is another branch of online casino software for gamblers seeking to analyze their chances to win.



Casino software generally provides a predictable long-term advantage to the house, but offering the gambler possibilities of a large short-term payout. The advantage of online casino software is the way gamblers get an illusion of control with the given choices, although such choices do not eliminate the long-term disadvantage risk, or in other words the house advantage.



Some gambling companies are developers of their own software, for example, CTXM a software company with roots in the Insurance financial area and owner of gaming related domains operating since 1997. CTXM not only develops internet payment systems for several of the biggest online gaming companies but also online casino software including sportsbooks, race books, and casino platforms, system maintenance and other projects including security consulting and game application development with a Microsoft Xbox Division.



At the present, the gambling industry has listed a large number of online casino software developers including companies like Dynamite Idea, WagerLogic, NetEnt, Sunfish, Digital Gaming Solutions, Parlay Entertainment, Gamesys, Dobrosoft, IGW Software, Eclipse Gaming, Boss Media, IQ-Ludorum, SkillJam Technologies Corporation, World Gaming, Ongame, vsGaming, RealTime Gaming, Chartwell Technology, Microgaming, Orbis Technology, Finsoft, Wirex and Electracade just to name a few.
