BBIN - International

BBIN Live Dealer Solutions is an Asia-focused international online live dealer casino game provider. The company was founded in 1999 but we didn’t find any web presence until the early 2000s.

That’s not to say they weren’t delivering remote live games, but the frameworks for successful provenance and delivery over the Internet simply did not exist in 1999. Live closed-circuit broadcasts with satellite delivery and telephone feedback could have solved the tech dilemma.

BBIN is also a strong believer in Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) – businesses have an obligation to keep the ecosystems and economies in balance. The company’s CSR is centered primarily on the well-being of employees and a commitment to reducing carbon footprints and solving environmental problems from the ground up and from the inside out – keeping its own house in order is where it all starts.

We first saw a major online presence for the company in 2015 with its announcement that it had opened a VIP room at Venetian Macao. That same year it announced sponsorship of Macanese motor racing driver, André Couto in the 62nd Macau Grand Prix. The company has gone on to support multiple sports teams since then and continues to sponsor events, athletes, and teams today.

BBIN’s primary product is a live dealer solution for online casinos and the company claims service to over 500 Asian-facing websites from its studios in Manilla, Philippines where it is headquartered.

In addition to live dealer feeds the company provides a variety of animated digital games as well as a sports betting solution.

Most of the games are very narrowly focused on an Asian audience yet it also provides other classics that are popular internationally such as roulette and blackjack. The firm’s main player base is spread throughout China, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Thailand. The game selection reflects the target audience.

Visitors to any BBIN live gaming lobby can find titles such as Dragon Tiger, Wenzhou Pai Gow (cards), Sic Bo, Bull Bull, Fan Tan, 3 Face, Fish Prawn Crab, Mahjong tiles, and Se Die as well as baccarat, unlimited blackjack, Texas Hold’em, and Roulette among many others.

The games are made available on any channel from smartphones to desktop PCs with HD big screens. All of BBin’s products use HTML5 technology, making them compatible with a wide range of devices. All it takes is a modern web browser and a connection to the internet to open a secure channel to any BBIN game lobby.

While available across Asia and in Europe for players who prefer Asian gaming, we don’t find any BBIN live dealer lobbies open to players in the USA. This could change and our filters and comparison tools will be dynamically updated if and when that occurs.

The lobbies and games are found in a number of Asian languages. These include Mandarin, Thai, Vietnamese, Japanese, Korean, and Indonesian among others.

The BBIN software’s built-in chat facility allows players to communicate directly with croupiers and dealers. However, there is no way to chat with other players at the tables. We also don’t find any lobbies that offer one-on-one private tables – these may be offered in high-end salons privé that we simply haven’t discovered yet.

The company’s studios in Manila are equipped with cutting-edge technology to transmit all live casino games in real time over encrypted, secure connections. High-fidelity microphones and cinematic cameras bring a realistic casino game to players on the go or in the comfort of their own homes.

A variety of camera angles are available. For instance, at one point in a game of Sic Bo the table and digital user interface for betting, etc., will take up a little over half the screen from the bottom up. To the left, a roadmap is presented with all the needed information recorded from the previous 9 games with the ability to scroll for more. Atop and in the center is the dice popper with an inset of the dealer to the left and on the right is a roadmap with a digital representation of the current dice results.

Each game has its own options with a common user betting interface that is easy to navigate, uncluttered, and a joy to use.

Dragon Tiger is presented much in the same way Sic Bo is. However, the betting table takes up the middle of the screen horizontally with full-width roadmaps below. In the upper left is an invitation to verify the game with a phone number provided. On top and in the center is the dealer with a discard rack and physical digital roadmap to the left and to her right is the shuffler and card draw. In the upper right sector is a close-up of the dealer’s hands, the Dragon and Tiger spaces, and the drawn cards. Nothing could be more clear!

What Are the Company’s Advantages for International Players?

As an Asian company serving primarily Asian players, BBIN has no lack of knowledge of regional etiquette, culture, and customs. The company is made in Asia for Asian players and offers an exotic alternative for players accustomed to standard European fare.

Beyond the vast array of Asia-specific games, the user interface is well-organized and beautiful in its simplicity – able to deliver every nuance of the game without clutter or confusion in navigation.

All of the dealers we have seen are professionally trained Asian ladies with quiet confidence and inviting personalities who give a sense of engagement and excitement without pushing themselves onto players.

The games are all certified by GLI (Gaming Labs International) and BBIN has been amassing multiple accolades and awards from the online gambling business community for several years. Whether an award recipient or simply on the shortlist, BBIN has appeared in almost every industry award ceremony since 2016.
