A game studio and a casino answer to different regulators as entirely separate companies, and mixing them up is the single most common error in this part of the topic. Covering the studios whose titles appear in Philippine-facing lobbies, these pages set out who each one is, what it’s actually licensed to do, and whether it publishes a checkable return-to-player figure.

There are 4 pages here, and each one sticks to a single entry rather than lumping several together. When a field above says “not published”, the entry’s own page spells out exactly who was responsible for publishing it.
Each entry in a paragraph
Just enough on each one to tell you which page is actually worth opening.
CQ9 Gaming in full
No founding year published, and no headquarters stated. Makes slots, fishing games, table games, and arcade games.
Its page’s very first record belongs to PAGCOR (Electronic Gaming Licensing Department). For game content, PAGCOR keeps an approval list that you can find on its own site.
It publishes no RTP. No figure is quoted here for its titles, since whatever numbers circulate elsewhere are just third-party estimates that contradict one another.
The FA CHAI Gaming entry
Founded 2019, and states no headquarters. This developer’s line-up spans 3D fishing games, table games, slots, and arcade games.
Scan the page’s record, and Curacao Gaming Authority is the entry sitting at the very top. Holding licence OGL/2024/1184/1010, WiseInNet Technologies B.V.
RTP disclosure is what lets you trace a quoted figure for any of its titles back to the studio. Verifying RTP is simplest with FA CHAI, of the seven studios here, because its own public games listing shows the number outright..
JDB Gaming explained
No founding year published, and no headquarters stated. Builds fish shooting games, slots.
Its page’s very first record belongs to PAGCOR (Electronic Gaming Licensing Department). On its own site, PAGCOR runs an approval list for game content.
It publishes no RTP. No figure is quoted here for its titles, since whatever numbers circulate elsewhere are just third-party estimates that contradict one another.
JILI explained
No founding year published, and no headquarters stated. Its output spans slots, fishing games, table and card games and bingo.
Its page’s very first record belongs to PAGCOR (Electronic Gaming Licensing Department). JILI titles turn up on PAGCOR EGLD’s list of approved electronic games.
It publishes no RTP. No figure is quoted here for its titles, since whatever numbers circulate elsewhere are just third-party estimates that contradict one another.
Look up game providers details from inside the game itself
You don’t need to take anything here on trust. Every one of these licence claims traces back to a public register, and here’s where those registers are open:
- Searching by brand name won’t help for a Malta licence — use the MGA authorisation portal and look up the company instead. It’s common for the licensee to be a subsidiary under a different name: Pragmatic Play’s Malta licence actually belongs to Pragmatic Solutions MT Limited, not to any entity called Pragmatic Play.
- For a UK licence, use the account number to search the Gambling Commission’s public register. You’ll see the activities an active licence covers and when each one started, and if the holder faced a regulatory settlement, that shows up on the same record too.
- Pagcor.ph hosts the studio’s approved-games PDF — that’s what settles a PAGCOR EGLD listing. What’s actually being approved here is game content supplied to licensed operators. If the studio’s licence isn’t stated in the document, then it doesn’t hold one.
- If you need an RTP figure, go directly to the studio’s own page for that particular title. No comparison site can supply a figure that simply isn’t there — and when two comparison sites disagree, that disagreement itself is the finding.
The thing most often got wrong here
Keeping a PAGCOR operator licence separate from a PAGCOR EGLD listing is the key distinction to grasp. When a studio has an EGLD listing, PAGCOR has approved its game content for use by the operators it licenses. The studio doesn’t hold it as a licence, and it has nothing to say about any casino that carries those games.
Four of these seven studios listed below stop at exactly that, no more. Their pages spell it out directly, since “PAGCOR listed” and “PAGCOR licensed” differ by a single word but mean worlds apart — and it’s usually the second one a reader was hoping for.

FAQ
Which of these studios actually publishes an RTP figure?
FA CHAI Gaming. For the rest, no RTP exists to quote, so this site leaves it out instead of pulling a number from a comparison site.
Does a studio licence protect a player?
Not directly. Coverage under a studio licence goes to whichever company actually makes the games. Any recourse a player has goes through the operator's regulator — a separate licence belonging to an entirely different company.
Does PESOMAX carry all of these studios?
Open Games in the PESOMAX lobby: each game tile names its studio, so you can see which ones are live for you. You're getting each studio described strictly from what it has put on the record itself.
Where's the practical line between a PAGCOR licence and a PAGCOR EGLD listing?
An EGLD listing signals that PAGCOR-licensed operators are approved to use a studio's game content. An operator holds the PAGCOR licence itself, and that's what authorises it to run a casino. Four of the studios listed here have the first one, and not a single one has the second.
How come some studios listed here show no founding year or headquarters?
Because they do not publish one. None of CQ9 Gaming, JDB Gaming, or JILI discloses either figure on its own site. Both figures circulate on affiliate listicles without any primary source, which is why neither is repeated on this page.
If a game holds a GLI or BMM certification, does that guarantee it's fair?
That means the random number generator and paytable both passed through an independent lab's check against a standard. It carries real meaning, yet it's still not a licence, and neither one tells you anything about the operator that offers the game.
