Live Casino Philadelphia interactive gaming certificate

One row on the Board's list

The Board publishes a single document that names every Pennsylvania casino holding an interactive gaming certificate, the outside operator that runs the games for it (if any), the kinds of gaming authorized, the websites and apps, and the day each one began. Stadium Casino RE, LLC appears under its trade name, Live Casino Philadelphia (the Board's list puts an exclamation point after "Live" and after "PlayLive"). The row reads, in order: the certificateholder, then the words "No interactive gaming operator," then "Slots; Table Games," then the address playlive.com and the entry "PlayLive Mobile app," then the commencement date, August 14, 2020.

The document carries its date only in its file name, 4.30.26, and the Board's own page links it as the current list, so April 30, 2026 is the date shown for it. The license box above this text repeats the row. The list gives no certificate number for this holder, so none is shown. The one domain on the row is playlive.com, which is the address the Board itself prints.

What "No interactive gaming operator" means

Many Pennsylvania certificateholders hand the day-to-day running of their online games to a licensed interactive gaming operator, and the Board's list names that company on a separate line. For this holder the line says there is none. Put plainly, the list does not show an outside company between the casino's certificate and the PlayLive site: the entry is the casino's own. The list does not say who builds or hosts the software, and we add nothing beyond what the row states.

Sites that used this certificate until 2025

The bottom of the Board's document has a section titled "Former Interactive Gaming Sites." Three of its entries sit under this certificate, and all three were run by Digital Gaming Corporation USA:

• Spin Palace, operated from July 1, 2021 to September 9, 2025.
• Jackpot City, operated under the Betway branding from December 8, 2023 to September 9, 2025, as the list words it.
• Betway, operated from July 1, 2021 to March 4, 2025, with a note that operations were rebranded to Spin Palace Casino.

Those sites no longer appear in the current rows. They are worth knowing when an older article or app listing uses one of these names: a name that once sat under this certificate is not an active authorization today. PlayLive is the only site the current list shows for it.

What the certificate allows

The Board's August 15, 2018 press release, issued when it approved the first three certificates, describes the scope in three parts: non-peer-to-peer games that simulate slot machines, non-peer-to-peer games that simulate table games, and peer-to-peer poker. The current list uses a column called "Types of interactive gaming authorized," and for this row it says slots and table games. Poker is not listed for this holder. The 2018 release concerned other casinos, so it explains the vocabulary and not this holder's own approval date.

Checking the row yourself

1. Open the Board's page on licensed online gaming operators and choose the iGaming link.
2. On the interactive gaming operators page, look for the brand name. The Board's list of names there includes PlayLive.
3. Open the certificateholder list, a Word document, and search for "Live Casino Philadelphia" or "Stadium Casino RE."
4. Compare the website address on the row with the address in the browser. A site that differs, or that is missing from the row, is not on the list.
5. Check the document's file name for its date, then look for newer versions on the Board's page.

The Board also asks visitors to look for its logo on licensed sites. A logo alone is not proof, so the row on the list is the better test. The guide on how to check an online casino license walks through the same steps for any state.

What players and comparison pages say

The two summaries under this text come from public app store comments and from comparison pages. They describe what others write about the PlayLive brand and say nothing about the certificate itself. The entry above and those opinions are separate matters.
