A global gaming technology company, best known for the Wheel of Fortune slot franchise and a vast portfolio of land-based and online casino titles.
IGT (International Game Technology) is one of the world's largest gaming technology companies, with roots in land-based slot manufacturing dating back to 1975. The company is best known for the iconic Wheel of Fortune franchise and a vast portfolio of land-based slot cabinets. IGT has translated many of its established titles to the online market through its iGaming division.
International Game Technology was founded in 1975 in Reno, Nevada by William "Si" Redd, initially focusing on video poker and land-based slot machines. The company pioneered random number generator technology for slot cabinets and grew to become one of the dominant suppliers on US casino floors through the 1990s and 2000s. IGT merged with GTECH Holdings in 2015 to form a global lottery and gaming conglomerate. The iGaming division launched to adapt its most successful land-based titles for online operators worldwide.
IGT builds its online content in HTML5 and uses proprietary game engine technology carried over from its land-based development heritage. The company's online platform, IGT Casino, delivers games via API integration to operators. IGT holds certifications from approved independent testing laboratories across all markets it operates in, and its Random Number Generator systems are audited to international standards.
IGT holds gaming licences in numerous US states including New Jersey, Michigan, and Pennsylvania, as well as approvals from the UK Gambling Commission, Malta Gaming Authority, and multiple other jurisdictions in Europe, Latin America, and Asia-Pacific. The company's strongest market presence remains in North America.
