Crypto casino Stake announced the launch of Stake Engine, a remote gaming server (RGS) that allows game developers to cash in on their creations. Developers will receive 10% of Gross Gaming Revenue (GGR) earned from their game in monthly royalties.
Brais Pena, Chief Strategy Officer at Easygo, the technology powerhouse behind Stake, said: “Stake Engine is built for creators, with speed, freedom, and scale baked in.”
Developers will be able to build their own slots, casino games, and original IP games. Stake Engine uses the same technology that supports a million bets per second on the site.
After release, new games will be made available to Stake’s user base of over 20 million players. Games created using Stake Engine generated $3.31 billion in turnover over the past year.
Stake has been rapidly expanding its reach and generated $4.7 billion in GGR last year. This new initiative gives developers the chance to be part of the exponential growth.
Built for the builders
Developers will be able to upload, test, and launch games within minutes. Real-time performance data is made available through analytic tools, offering insights into player engagement and market trends.
In a press release, Pena went on to add, “Stake Engine is more than just infrastructure, it’s a launchpad for the next generation of iGaming creators. We’ve taken everything we’ve learned building the world’s most popular online casino and packaged it into a platform that removes barriers, unlocks creativity, and delivers scale from day one.”
“Stake Engine is what happens when the biggest operator in iGaming builds for the builders. It’s not just a platform. It’s our commitment to the next generation of game creators.”
Since the crypto casino launched in 2017, they have grown rapidly. Although banned in the US, Stake operates through Stake.us, which uses a sweepstakes model to allow players to play games using virtual currencies.
Stake.us is legal in most states, but some states have blocked access, including Washington, New York, and Nevada. The company also faces legal challenges, with a series of lawsuits, most recently in California and Illinois.
Crypto casino market booming
Stake was the leading crypto casino last year in a record-breaking year for the industry. A report published last week showed the industry generated over $81 billion in revenue in 2024.
Stake’s GGR of $4.7 billion rivals some of the biggest gambling companies in the world. Flutter, owners of FanDuel, was the industry leader at $14 billion. Entain generated the next highest revenue at $5 billion, followed by DraftKings at $4.8 billion, just more than Stake.
The launch of Stake Engine aims to keep Stake at the top of the gaming world and harness independent game developers’ creativity to continue attracting users. Potential game developers can get more information on how to get set up on the Stake Engine site.
