Payment Service Providers for Casino and Sportsbook Operators
A payment service provider is the default first contract for most licensed operators: one integration that opens card acquiring plus a catalogue of alternative payment methods. This category profiles global and European PSPs that publicly serve regulated gambling merchants, from listed acquirers to gaming-focused gateways.

The PSPs listed here combine two roles that smaller providers split: they acquire Visa and Mastercard transactions directly, and they aggregate alternative methods such as Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal, Skrill, Neteller, paysafecard, iDEAL, BLIK, Przelewy24 and open banking behind the same API. For a casino payment provider this matters because a player in Poland, the Netherlands and Canada expects a different cashier, and a PSP with broad APM coverage lets one team serve all three without three contracts.
Gambling appetite varies enormously inside this category. Some providers run dedicated iGaming units with state-level vendor approvals in the US and Canada; others are licensed banks or EMIs that accept licensed operators selectively and underwrite each merchant case by case. The licences column on each profile shows what the provider itself publishes, such as PCI DSS Level 1, FCA e-money authorisation, a Dutch banking licence or scheme principal membership, and where nothing is published we say so rather than guess.
Pricing in this category is almost always on request, typically on an interchange++ or blended basis, and only a few providers publish rate cards. When comparing offers, ask about settlement cadence (several providers settle T+1 to T+3), rolling reserves for gambling merchants, chargeback fees and how APM payouts are priced, because a low card rate can hide an expensive withdrawal flow.
