What is an RGS (Remote Gaming Server)?

Definition: An RGS (Remote Gaming Server) is the server that hosts casino game logic. It runs the RNG, applies the game maths and calculates the result of each round.

How the parts connect:

The game interface shows the game in the player's browser or app.
The RGS generates the outcome and calculates the win.
The operator platform debits the bet and credits the win through a wallet API.

What an RGS manages:

RTP configurations and game versions per market.
Game sessions and round history.
Data for reporting and player dispute checks.

Certification: the RGS and its games are tested by independent labs before games go live in competitive markets.
