Vivo Gaming Casinos

Is Vivo Gaming safe to play?

Vivo holds no UK Gambling Commission licence, so there is no UK-regulated way to play its tables. It is licensed in Curacao, and its games are tested by the independent lab Gaming Labs International, but that testing covers the games, not the site you play them at. The casino you deposit with holds your balance, and it is that casino’s licence that decides what happens if a withdrawal stalls, so a site can stream perfectly fair Vivo tables and still be a poor place to leave money. Vivo’s casinos are mostly smaller offshore operators, so weigh the site carefully before you deposit.

The games themselves you can watch happen. Vivo’s live blackjack is real: physical cards dealt from a shoe, a dealer in front of you, filmed continuously. The software reads what the cards actually did rather than deciding it, and the odds come from the rules of the game, the same as they would at a table you can walk up to.

How Vivo compares to the other live studios

Vivo is one of five live-dealer studios we cover in depth. Here is how it lines up against the others on the things that actually differ, rather than raw table counts, which no studio publishes reliably.

Prefer Vivo when its reach matches you: native-language tables for Latin America and Asia, dedicated or branded rooms a specific casino runs, and games like Andar Bahar and Teen Patti built for the Indian market. Reach for a bigger studio when you want published table rules and tested returns, the widest choice of blackjack and roulette variants, or the branded game shows Vivo does not make. Еволюція і Playtech document their tables and run those shows; Vivo’s case is access and local presence, not scale.

The company behind the games

Vivo Gaming is an independently owned live dealer studio, most commonly dated to 2010, though its exact founding year is disputed and some profiles push it back to the mid-2000s. Our older page said 2005 and put its home in Miami; the fuller picture is a company registered offshore in the Seychelles, with offices in several countries including Miami and London, whose day-to-day operations have long run out of Costa Rica. It films from its own studios across Europe, Latin America and Asia rather than licensing someone else’s stream, which is what lets it offer dedicated tables and local-language dealers. It is still independent and active in 2026, with no acquisition on record. Its high point to date was 2022, when it won the EGR live casino supplier of the year award, the first company to take that title from Evolution in over a decade.
