A Quick Look at Quickfire Games
Quickfire is a software platform developed by Quickfire Games. This company was launched in 2010 by its parent organisation Microgaming, in order to licence its own game content to online bingo and casino operators and other gaming site providers.
The company developed this platform so that it could provide a seamless integration of its own games provision with other operators’ site software platforms. Quickfire is now the platform of choice for many casino site operators. It offers an exceptional range of great games, compatible with play on any kind of device from mobile to desktop. This is because it is able to integrate both Flash and HTML5 coded games.
The platform also provides the flexibility to be able to link in to most of the other software platforms which power online gaming sites. This means that operators using Quickfire are able to offer the very best games, from many different games providers, and are not limited to only using Microgaming titles or their licenced partners.
This simplicity and flexibility, together with an outstanding range of games makes Quickfire one of the most popular platforms which casino operators choose to power their sites. The company does not design any actual game content, so from the typical player’s point of view, it can be easy to overlook the importance of its service.
Despite this possibly understated profile, this service is the platform of choice for well over a hundred different operators, with in excess of three hundred different individual casinos powered by Quickfire. This means that many of the most popular casinos around today are in fact based around this platform, with thousands of satisfied players perhaps unwittingly enjoying its smooth and efficient service. Well known casinos which do run on this software include Casumo, Lucky Casino, Mr Mobi and Windfall Casino. Non casino sites also licencing this software platform include big name sportsbook operations such as Bet 365 and bingo operators such as Aunty Acid.
From the operators’ point of view, the platform offers a great range of over five hundred possible games, including top titles from other providers too, like NetEnt and NextGen Gaming. New games are added to the roster all the time. All games are available in at least twenty different languages and the platform can be accessed using most of the major internationally traded currencies across the world.
In addition to the hundreds of casino games such as traditional table games and video slots, live dealer formats of Baccarat, Blackjack and Roulette are available. Poker is available via a linked service, while bingo is provided in various alternative 90 and 75 ball formats.
Licencing arrangements can also be taken care of by this provider, according to the specific requirements of its licenced partners. Quickfire powered sites targeted at the United Kingdom market are licenced via the Alderney Gambling Control Commission or the Government of Gibraltar. Both of these jurisdictions are fully regulated by the UK Gambling Commission.
So with close to 50,000 players a day playing on games powered by Quickfire software, the chances are you too will find yourself spinning a few reels or wheels on these smooth running sites. Just look out for the distinctive “Quickfire: Powered by Microgaming” logo which can be found at the bottom of many of the most popular casinos’ homepages.
