Games
Platipus builds its games with HTML5, with a focus on how they play across devices. The technology supports crisp graphics and quick loading on desktop and laptop computers, smartphones, tablets, and other mobile devices using casino apps or web browsers.
Platipus adds a new game to its catalogue each month. It also characterizes the provider as trustworthy, though that assessment is the rather than a current verification.
iTechlabs, an independent testing organization with ISO/IEC 17025 certification, tests Platipus games. The review says this supports the fairness and accuracy of the games’ Random Number Generator (RNG) software. It lists certification across the UK, Italy, AGCC, Denmark, IOM, Malta, Gibraltar, Sweden, and Romania; these jurisdictional claims reflect the source and do not establish Canadian authorization.

Platipus has three baccarat versions. The source points to the game’s popularity in Asian markets, particularly in Macau, as a reason these titles may appeal there.
- Mini-Baccarat (6-Decks)

- Baccarat Pro (6-Decks)
Baccarat VIP is aimed at high rollers who want to wager larger amounts per hand. Mini Baccarat and Baccarat Pro follow traditional rules: ‘Tie’ bets pay 8-1, banker bets carry a 5% commission and pay 0.95-1, and winning ‘Player’ bets pay even odds.
In Baccarat Pro, a ‘Tie’ pays 9-1; ‘Banker’ and ‘Player’ bets follow the payouts described above. The source also lists side bets: Perfect Pair (25-1), Either Pair (5-1), Banker Pair (11-1), Play Pair (11-1), Big (0.54-1), and Small (1.5-1).
Reported Return to Player (RTP) for all 3 tables:
- Banker Bet: 98.94% RTP
- Player Bet: 98.76% RTP
- Tie Bet: 85.56% RTP
Blackjack
The source describes 2 Platipus blackjack tables, each with the same stated RTP of 99.58%.
- Blackjack - Atlantic City
- Blackjack VIP (For high rollers)
Both versions use 6 decks. The dealer stands on hard 17, and players may split pairs and aces, double down on any value, and double down after splitting.
The review lists identical payouts for the two tables:
- 1-1 for a win
- 3-2 for blackjack
- 2-1 for insurance bets
The source describes these games as having flexible rules and says they suit players using basic strategy. It links to online blackjack tables.
Roulette
At the time of the review, Platipus listed 2 roulette tables that were not yet ready for release. The company then expected them to launch in the winter of 2020.
- European Roulette

American Roulette was described as “a quicker take on European roulette, with a double zero added to the table”.
