Greentube

Ownership and History

Greentube is the digital arm of the NOVOMATIC Group: the first line of its own About page describes it as the NOVOMATIC Digital Gaming and Entertainment division. The company dates its own start in gaming to 1998, when it launched the 3D sports game Ski Challenge under the name Dürrschmid&Reisinger OEG. It was renamed Greentube Internet Entertainment Solutions AG in 2000 and became part of the NOVOMATIC Group in 2010. NOVOMATIC's own site lists Greentube GmbH, at Wiedner Hauptstraße 94 in Vienna, among the group's locations.

What It Supplies

Greentube is a business-to-business supplier. It describes its portfolio as covering classic slots, video bingo, video poker, table games, server-based gaming and social casino gaming, and it sells platform and tooling products alongside the content. Its own site lists offices in Vienna and Graz, Las Vegas, Nottingham, Ljubljana, Maribor, Bratislava, Waalwijk, Belgrade, Birkirkara, Vancouver and Athens. No total game count is published on its own site, so none is recorded here.

Group Companies

Greentube publishes a list of its own subsidiaries with the year each joined, including Funstage in Austria from 2005, Greentube Malta active in online gaming since 2006, Greentube Alderney and the group's Gibraltar operation, BlueBat Games in Vancouver from 2015, AbZorba Games in Greece and Greentube UK from 2017, Greentube Serbia from 2019, Greentube US from 2020, Greentube Netherlands and Greentube Luxembourg from 2021, and Greentube SI and Alteatec from 2023.

Licensing

The Malta Gaming Authority's own seal of authorisation records licence MGA/CRP/120/2006, a B2B critical supply licence, as held and licensed by Greentube Malta Limited of Birkirkara; it also shows a B2C gaming service licence, MGA/B2C/823/2020, as surrendered. Greentube's own footer states that Greentube GmbH is regulated by the Malta Gaming Authority under authorisation number MGA/CRP/120/2006 dated 1 March 2023, so the corporate name attached to that number differs between the regulator's record and the company's own statement.

In Great Britain, the Gambling Commission's public register records Greentube GmbH of 94 Wiedner Hauptstrasse, Vienna under account number 41020, holding a remote gambling software licence, 041020-R-320549-008, active from 16 March 2015. Greentube states the same account number on its own Jurisdictions page.

Greentube's Jurisdictions page further names the Swiss ESBK, HM Government of Gibraltar, Italy's Agenzia delle dogane e dei monopoli, the IAUI, the Malta Gaming Authority, Schleswig-Holstein, the Spanish government, the Gambling Commission, the Alderney Gambling Control Commission and the Belgian Kansspelcommissie. Those entries carry no licence numbers, and none is written here.

Greentube Casino Games

Greentube has produced a large library of online slot games and variations, including well-known titles such as the Book of Ra series, Lucky Lady’s Charm, Sizzling Hot and Golden Sevens.

Greentube slots are designed well and offer an interesting array of bonus features, but there is a wide range of quality in graphics and overall style. Some of their games are modern and up-to-date with high quality graphics while some of their games appear quite dated. However, it’s worth noting that they have been designing casino games since the 90s so there are bound to be varying levels of graphic quality.
