It joined the family-owned Gauselmann Group in 2008, launched a game solution in 2014 to distribute its portfolio internationally, moved to HTML5 and a mobile app in 2015, and in 2021 launched an aggregator solution integrating third-party studios into its platform.
Its content centres on the Gauselmann Group's Merkur slots, alongside Blueprint Gaming, Booming Games, Hölle Games and Apparat Gaming, and in 2026 its website cited more than 650 games, over 150 active platforms and more than 8.5 billion game rounds a year; December 2025 news posts describe StarGames.de and AdmiralBet in Germany carrying its Merkur titles. The group says it holds five B2B licences, operating through edict egaming GmbH in Hamburg, Edict Malta Limited in Sliema and Alliance Gaming Solutions Limited on the Isle of Man; its licences section links UK Gambling Commission registrations for both edict egaming GmbH and Edict Malta Limited and shows an Isle of Man logo.
