The studio

Who Live88 are

The brand is stated on its own site to be intellectual property of OT Malta Ltd, Malta registration C88843, at Piazzetta Business Plaza in Sliema. Cite the licence under that entity rather than under the brand name.

Live88 is a live casino supplier — studio-based dealer tables covering roulette, blackjack, baccarat and dragon tiger. What it sells alongside them is engagement: tournaments, community features, reward mechanics. Its own framing is that the player is part of the product rather than a spectator at a table.

One important exception. Blackjack88, launched October 2025, is an RNG title — unlimited tables, high-speed play, dynamic table limits. It is not a live dealer game, despite sitting inside a live casino brand. Profiles listing it as live blackjack are wrong.

No founding year is published. The brand launched publicly on 3 May 2024, which is the earliest verifiable date but is not necessarily the incorporation date. Simon Field was appointed managing director on 12 September 2025; no earlier leadership is published.

Loot Boxes and blackjack tournaments are features applied to existing tables rather than separate games. We list them because they are the studio’s actual differentiator, not because they are titles.

What makes it different

What Live88 is selling

Classic tables are a commodity. The argument here is everything built on top of them.

Multiplier roulette

Triton and Royal Riches apply random per-round multipliers to wins. A well-worn idea, but it is the studio’s most visible game-level differentiator.

Loot boxes as retention

A reward mechanic borrowed from video games and applied across the portfolio. Whether it suits your market is worth thinking about; in several jurisdictions loot box mechanics attract regulatory attention in their own right.

One RNG title in a live brand

Blackjack88 is RNG. If you merchandise it as live blackjack the player finds out within one hand, and that is a complaint rather than a conversion.

Where it runs

Markets and licensing

The company states MGA/B2B/641/2018, a B2B critical supply licence granted 29 August 2019 to OT Malta Ltd. That number comes from the company’s own site; we did not confirm it on the MGA register, so verify before you rely on it.

In October 2025 the company announced a UAE gaming-related vendor licence, describing itself as the first licensed online live casino studio in the Emirates. The announcement names no regulator and no licence number, so any profile quoting one has gone beyond the source.

No independent testing-laboratory certification is confirmed. The certifications page on the company’s own site returned an error when we checked.

Whether Live88 operates its own physical studios or uses third-party studio infrastructure is not independently confirmed. The UAE announcement would support the former if verified against the regulator.

Licences and certifications
  • MGA/B2B/641/2018 — OT Malta Ltd, company-stated, granted 29 Aug 2019
  • Malta registration C88843 — company-stated, not registry-confirmed here
  • UAE vendor licence announced Oct 2025 — no regulator or number named
  • No testing-laboratory certification confirmed
