About the company

Habanero Systems (usually just Habanero for short) is one of the “2010s” providers. During the last 6 years, the company has not only managed to earn the spot in the “gambling elite” but also master several business niches. Habanero is a European provider constantly extending the sphere of its influence. The company’s offices have a perfect geographic location (based in the capital cities of Ukraine, Bulgaria, South Africa, and the Philippines). It strengthens the brand’s positions almost all over the world (the only market left unexplored is North America). Software developed by Habanero is certified by BMM Testlabs and iTech Labs, which guarantees the best quality, transparency, and fairness of all the provider’s gambling solutions. In total, it is present in 22 regulated markets worldwide, including those with the biggest clout in the iGaming world, such as Malta. Since 2016 Habanero has never missed an influential gambling event. The company has entered ICE, EiG, and iGB. Habanero has so far produced more than 150 slots, table games, and video poker games with HTML5 technology, which allows users to play them on all types of mobile and desktop devices, regardless of the operating system.

How Habanero Systems got started?

Habanero Systems B.V. was founded in 2010 and during the first couple of years wasn’t particularly popular in the gambling world. But the thighs have changed drastically in 2012 when the company was bought out by a group of European investors. Right after that Habanero has started working on developing new games for the portfolio and exploring new markets outside EU and CIS. In 2014 Habanero’s team has begun the active expansion into Asia. The company has opened an office in Manila and by 2016 became one of the top four RNG-providers in Asia.2016 was a turning point for Habanero. The business triumph in Asia has turned a small unknown team into a force to be reckoned with. Besides that, by the end of 2016, all of the Habanero’s games were switched to HTML5. The same year the company has entered ICE in London and EiG in Berlin for the first time and was shortlisted as “The best online supplier” and “The best mobile solution” for the Asia Gaming Awards.In 2019, the company celebrated its 100th slot release with the launch of Colossal Gems with the supper multiplier bonus feature that brings payouts worth x64 times your bet. Another of the company’s latest releases that caught the attention of the industry was Techno Tumble, with an RTP that reaches an average of 96.73% and has a maximum payout of 13,080x, which were good enough features to get it declared Slot of the Week by SlotBeats. In 2021, Habanero Systems managed to extend its reach into new markets and secure new gambling licenses from the Malta Gaming Authority and Romania’s ONJN. Also, Habanero made its debut in the markets of LatAmerica, Spain, and Africa through partnerships with leading operators like 888, Betway, and others. In 2022, Habanero Systems reached another important milestone when it won the Game Innovation award for its release Orbs Of Atlantis, beating out Evoplay’s Star Guardians and AvatarUX’s Lollipop at the CasinoBeats Summit conference in Malta.

The key to Habanero’s success is in its portfolio. Unlike many other gambling newcomers, the company doesn’t stick to a strict specialization and develops not only slots but also table games and video poker. Despite the fact Habanero is a “fresh and promising” provider, its portfolio can be compared to the online gambling “stars” like Netent or Playson.

For online casinos

Slots

As of January 2023, Habanero’s portfolio has 142 slots (the new one comes out every 4-6 weeks). If you are delighted with the Asian culture, you’ll definitely enjoy playing such Habanero slots as “Panda Panda”, “Koi Gate”, “Fenghuang”, “Fa Cai Shen” , “Dragon Tiger Gate” and many more! “Europe-inspired” slots like “London Hunter”, “Gangsters”, “Roman Empire”, “Sir Blingalot” will be a perfect choice for the gamblers willing to play something a little bit more traditional yet exciting. Animal slots, “Egyptian” slots, “pirate” slots, “ancient” slots, “space” slots… Habanero has it all! And the bonus features change from game to game: free spins, expanding wilds, multiplying bonuses, etc.. Long story short, Habanero slots will please literally anyone!

Table games

Habanero’s table games portfolio includes not only the famous “blackjack, roulette, and baccarat” trio but also two types of poker (Caribbean stud and the Caribbean hold’em), “Dragon Tiger” and “Sic Bo” plus the super popular “War of bets”. Very few modern providers can offer such a variety.All of the games have a minimalistic design and a user-friendly interface. All of the games have a built-in statistics and, of course, the separate section with all the rules (so even the first time player will not be confused).

Video poker

Habanero’s video poker has the same simple and clean design as table games have. The gambler can choose from ten different video poker games.Right at the beginning, the gambler has to choose the number of hands (1, 5, 10, 50 or 100). Each game has the built-in hints for the player and a table containing the pay-out rates depending on the combination.
