PHILWEB CORP. has entered into an exclusive partnership with iGaming software provider Pragmatic Play to provide the company’s gaming services to licensed gaming operators in the Philippines through PhilWeb’s technology platform.

In a statement on Thursday, PhilWeb said it will provide hosted services through its remote technology infrastructure and application programming interface (API)-enabled integration, allowing licensed operators to offer Pragmatic Play’s gaming services to end users, subject to applicable regulatory approvals and contractual arrangements.

The services are expected to be available in the third quarter of 2026.

“This partnership represents an important milestone in PhilWeb’s long-term strategy of expanding its technology-enabled gaming services business,” PhilWeb President Edgar Brian K. Ng said.

“By collaborating with one of the industry’s leading international gaming services providers, we are positioned to broaden our commercial relationships with licensed operators while creating a scalable and recurring revenue stream through technology-enabled services,” he added.

PhilWeb said Pragmatic Play’s gaming services are used by a majority of online gaming platforms licensed to operate in the Philippines.

It said the exclusive agreement is expected to support its existing operator relationships and could help attract additional licensed operators.

The company also said the partnership could pave the way for agreements with other international gaming services providers as it expands its technology-enabled gaming services business in the Philippines.

Pragmatic Play is an iGaming software provider based in Gibraltar, a British Overseas Territory, and licensed by regulators in Great Britain, Gibraltar, and Malta. It offers online gaming products, including slots and live casino games through a single API integration. — Alexandria Grace C. Magno
