Core Requirements
When a game is sent for review, Stake Engine technical support checks whether it is fit to publish on the Stake Engine platform. Review requests apply to a specific frontend and math version. The team looks at functionality, clarity, communication, and technical performance. Those factors decide whether the title is ready to publish. Stake Engine will share any issues, requested changes, and the reason for approval or rejection on a case-by-case basis.
Each review request must include a short blurb covering theme and mechanics for promotional use and the game description tag.
Key Restrictions
- Stake Engine games are strictly stateless: every bet must stand on its own. Titles may not include jackpots, gamble features, continuation, or early cashout options.
- Team names, game titles, and assets must follow intellectual property and copyright law. Infringement is a reason for rejection.
- Games must be original. Pre-purchased or licensed titles already live on other third-party sites are not allowed.
- Game assets may not use Stake Engine branding or themes from other platforms without authorization.
- Approval sits with the reviewer. Titles judged offensive, explicit, in poor taste, or below quality standards may be rejected.
- Games that promote, encourage, or are likely to appeal to underage persons are not allowed. That includes artistic depictions of children or child-like characters in any gambling context.
- Games may be considered for social and regulated markets only if they follow strict language requirements (see Jurisdiction Requirements below). Stake Engine provides a social mode setting in the play modal for testing social languages.
After Release
When you send a review request, the game should be finished and ready to publish.
After a title is approved for Stake Engine, only small visual fixes are allowed unless Stake Engine asks otherwise. Changes to the underlying math model, new game modes, or gameplay mechanic updates are not permitted.
