Playtech is Microgaming’s biggest competitor and has only been around since 1999. Anyone who has been around the industry for a long time will tell you that until around 2002, Playtech was not the most reliable product. But a major overhaul that year brought the company back into fighting shape and it’s been going like gangbusters ever since.
These days, Playtech is known for top flight graphics and technical innovations. Perhaps their biggest innovation was the development of live dealer software that helped alleviate the (incorrect) perception that computer gaming was rigged.
Playtech is also responsible for the Multiple Deposit Bonus. This feature allows players to receive a small bonus on multiple games and can increase overall play time.
