Some online casino games developers seemingly launch out nowhere. One day there’s nothing and the next, they offer a whole series of slots to the world. The story of AGS, however, has taken a very different path.

AGS, or American Gaming Systems, provides online slots for real money, table and card games to a vast number of land-based and online casino sites. The company has been in business since the 1990s and operates from a head office in Henderson, Nevada.

There is a close link between the history of AGS and the story of Native American gambling regulations. The company initially provided Class II Bingo and Lottery games, which did not require licensing on Native American territories.

With changes in the laws throughout 1980s and 1990s, AGS was able to expand its service to include Class III games. These include higher-stakes casino games, and now AGS has over 10,000 cabinets installed across regulated sites in the USA and beyond.

For those of us who can’t easily access a land-based casino, AGS has branched out and now offers games in online and mobile formats. Luckily for players, this brings AGS slots, table games, lotteries and Bingo titles to a much wider audience.

President and CEO David Lopez heads the company. Like the rest of the management team, he has years of experience in the casino industry, most recently with Global Cash Access and Shuffle Master Inc. Other senior managers have come from Bally Technologies, Scientific Games and Cadillac Jack.
