Live Dealer Casino: A Guide for Agents

What a live dealer casino is

A live dealer casino streams real dealers running real tables to your players in real time. Instead of a software game, your player sees a person dealing blackjack, spinning roulette, or running baccarat, and bets along through the platform. It is the closest thing to a casino floor that fits on a phone.

Why it matters for your book

Sports betting has dead time. Between games and on slow days, players drift. A casino, and especially a live dealer floor, gives them something to do when there is no game to bet, which keeps them on your platform instead of someone else’s. For a lot of agents, the casino is where a real share of the action ends up.

How it fits into pay per head

On a good platform, the live casino sits next to the sportsbook and the digital casino on one player login. Your player moves from a game to a live table without a second account or moving money around, and you control access and limits the same way you handle the rest of your book.

Watch the casino cut

Here is the part that matters for your margin. Some providers include the casino but quietly take a percentage of it. If your players lose real money at the tables, a 10% cut adds up fast. With GameDay the casino, live and digital, is included with zero cut, so what your players lose stays with you. You can see the effect on the pricing calculator.

What GameDay is, to be clear

GameDay is a software and platform provider. It does not run the games against your players, hold their money, or pay them. You run your own book and are responsible for the laws that apply where you operate. Digital slots and table games are covered on the digital casino product; the live floor is the streamed dealer experience.

Try it on your own players

The honest way to see whether a live casino moves the needle for your book is to offer it and watch. With GameDay you can do that on a free month with no card. Start your free month or read about the digital casino.
