Custom builds and the DiGER platform
What it is
Digicode is a software development company founded in 2008, with development hubs in the United States, Europe and Ukraine and more than 400 engineers, about 100 of them working on game development. It set up a dedicated iGaming division in early 2024 and appointed Itai Zak as iGaming Executive Director the same year.
In iGaming, Digicode builds rather than licenses. Clients include B2C operators across several jurisdictions and tier-one game suppliers. The business model is the point: Digicode does not take a revenue share, work is priced up front, and the client keeps full ownership of the intellectual property.
Key features
- It develops casino, sportsbook and lottery platforms for clients and designs and builds games.
- An integration hub connects third-party content and payment providers, and the team optimises cloud infrastructure.
- DiGER, launched in September 2025, is an all-in-one iGaming platform built on modular microservices: PAM, bonus engine, wallets and reporting, a unified integration layer and real-time business intelligence.
- DiGER also has built-in tooling for responsible gaming, GDPR and AML/KYC, AI-based risk detection, and support for desktop, mobile and retail.
- DiGER is sold on a one-time licence rather than a recurring SaaS fee, with 12 months of technical support and onboarding included, after which the operator can maintain it in-house or keep paying Digicode for support.
- The company uses AI tools for code generation, testing and maintenance and offers AI integration as a service.
The company aims DiGER at regulated markets and tier-two operators. A revenue share is cheap at the start and expensive at scale: the more a brand grows, the more it pays. A one-time licence reverses that. It costs more on day one, and the operator needs its own engineering team, or a support contract, to keep the platform current with regulatory changes. The break-even point depends on expected GGR and on how many developers the operator is willing to employ, so model both before deciding.
Who it's for
An operator that has outgrown a white-label platform and wants its own technology. For that buyer, Digicode is the main alternative to a turnkey system: more control and no ongoing percentage, in exchange for carrying the cost and responsibility of the build.
Before you sign
- What concrete examples show how AI tools changed time or cost on a past project?
- Can it give references from operators who have run a Digicode-built platform through a regulatory audit?
- Will the platform pass certification in your markets, since ownership is only an advantage if it does?
- What does break-even look like for your expected GGR and engineering headcount?
