JLJL77 Game Providers — Every Studio Covered Here
Game provider coverage in this section runs to 5 pages.
| Fact | Value |
|---|---|
| JLJL77 CQ9 Gaming Games | No operator role applies to CQ9 Gaming, which is a game studio. |
| JLJL77 Evolution Games | What Evolution does is build games, and operating a casino is not part of it. |
| JLJL77 JILI Games | JILI works as a game studio and should not be mistaken for an operator. |
| JLJL77 PG Soft Games | PG Soft is a studio that makes games, and it does not operate as an operator. |
| JLJL77 Pragmatic Play Games | Pragmatic Play belongs to the studio side of the business, not the operator side. |
One mistake outweighs the rest on this subject, which is treating a game studio and a casino as interchangeable even though they are separate companies with their own regulators. Philippine-facing lobbies carry games from many studios; these pages say who each one is, what its licence actually authorises, and whether it puts out a return-to-player figure open to checking. There are 5 pages below.

One entry per page is the pattern across these 5 pages, which avoid summarising several at once. A field above that reads “not published” is explained on the entry’s page, along with who would have had to publish the figure.
Each entry in a paragraph
The summaries are only meant to help you choose which page to open.
PG Soft explained
Founded 2015, based in Valletta, Malta. Builds slots.
Malta Gaming Authority takes first place among the records on its page. Licence MGA/B2B/435/2017 is on record for Pocket Games Software Limited (C 76195).
It is open about RTP, publishing it, so a figure quoted for one of its titles goes back to the studio. Hidden from the screen but present in the data: PG Soft publishes RTP, and the displayed field for it is a blank dash.
Pragmatic Play in full
Founded 2015, based in Gibraltar. It creates slots, live casino, bingo, crash games and virtual sports.
Malta Gaming Authority takes first place among the records on its page. Pragmatic Solutions MT Limited was granted licence MGA/B2B/619/2018.
It is open about RTP, publishing it, so a figure quoted for one of its titles goes back to the studio. Pragmatic’s published RTP, one per title on its game pages, is the high-water mark of a set.
JILI explained
Both the founding year and the headquarters are missing from its published details. It releases everything from bingo and fishing games to slots, table games and card games.
Look at its page and the first record you meet is PAGCOR (Electronic Gaming Licensing Department). The register of electronic games cleared by PAGCOR EGLD has JILI entries in it.
It publishes no RTP. Figures elsewhere are third-party estimates that clash with each other, and this site quotes none for its titles.
CQ9 Gaming in full
Both the founding year and the headquarters are missing from its published details. Among its products are slots, fishing games, table games and arcade games.
Look at its page and the first record you meet is PAGCOR (Electronic Gaming Licensing Department). PAGCOR’s site carries a register where game content approvals are recorded.
It publishes no RTP. Figures elsewhere are third-party estimates that clash with each other, and this site quotes none for its titles.
The Evolution entry
Founded 2006, based in Stockholm, Sweden. Builds live dealer casino, live game shows.
Malta Gaming Authority takes first place among the records on its page. MGA/CRP/187/2010 is registered to Evolution Gaming Malta Limited as licence holder.
It is open about RTP, publishing it, so a figure quoted for one of its titles goes back to the studio. The row reads publishing RTP, as third-party sources are consistent about the RTP figures on Evolution’s game-show titles..
The thing most often got wrong here
Two things that look alike but differ are a PAGCOR operator licence and a PAGCOR EGLD listing, and that gap is the heart of this page. PAGCOR’s EGLD listing for a studio shows approval of the studio’s game content for the operators PAGCOR licenses. The studio holds no licence through it, and it makes no claim about any casino that offers those games.
That alone is what four of the seven studios below can show. Every one of their pages says which it is in straightforward terms, since “PAGCOR listed” and “PAGCOR licensed” differ by one word but not by one idea, and the second is the one readers usually hope for.
Inside the game itself you will find the game providers details
There is no need to take the claims here at face value. The source for each licence claim on these pages is a public register, open for anyone to read:
- In the MGA authorisation portal, a Malta licence turns up under the company name, so search that and skip the brand name. The party named on a licence is often a subsidiary; Pragmatic Play’s Malta licence, for instance, is in the hands of Pragmatic Solutions MT Limited and no company called Pragmatic Play.
- With a UK licence, the account number is what you type into the Gambling Commission public register. What an active licence permits and the date each activity began are displayed, and a regulatory settlement against the holder turns up on the same record.
- For the PAGCOR EGLD listing, open pagcor.ph and locate the studio’s approved-games PDF. Approval here means game content cleared for use by licensed operators. A document that never says the studio is licensed tells you it is not.
- When an RTP figure matters, check it on the studio’s own page about that specific title. A figure that is missing there stays missing whatever a comparison site claims, and two comparison sites that disagree are themselves the finding.

FAQ
Point out the studios here that publish an RTP figure.
PG Soft, Pragmatic Play, Evolution. No RTP is given on this site for the other studios' titles, as they do not, and nothing is borrowed from a comparison site.
Does a studio licence protect a player?
Not directly. The studio that develops the games is the entity a studio licence covers. The operator's regulator handles a player's recourse; that licence is a different one, held by a different company.
Does JLJL77 carry all of these studios?
Open Games in the JLJL77 lobby: each game tile names its studio, so you can see which ones are live for you. Here, each studio is presented through the record it has published.
Can the terms PAGCOR licence and PAGCOR EGLD listing be used interchangeably, or are they different?
The approval that an EGLD listing records applies to a studio's game content, and it is meant for PAGCOR-licensed operators to use. A casino can be run by an operator only with authorisation, and a PAGCOR licence is that authorisation, held by the operator. Not one studio here has the second, whereas four have the first.
Why can some studios on this site not be given a founding year or headquarters?
Because they do not publish one. JILI and CQ9 Gaming both leave these out of their own sites. There are figures for both on affiliate listicles, lacking any primary source, and this page does not repeat them.
Where fairness is concerned, what weight does a GLI or BMM certification carry for a game?
In practice it means an independent test laboratory tested the random number generator and paytable to a standard. This is worth something, though it is not a licence, and both leave the operator offering the game unaddressed.
