What Is Royal Partners

A direct advertiser with one of the widest brand portfolios in the market

Royal Partners is a direct iGaming advertiser operating since 2017. Given the size of its brand portfolio (16+), it's arguably better classified as a full affiliate network than a classic single-casino in-house program.

Some brands are licensed (OGL/2024/169/0146, №1668/JAZ), and the geographic reach is one of the widest in the niche: from CIS and Europe (Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Poland, Czechia, and others) to India and Latin America (Brazil, Chile, Mexico).

Every partner gets a personal manager and 24/7 support. The company regularly launches new brands, giving affiliates access to "clean," not-yet-burned player pools.

What Happened in Spring 2026 — and Where Things Stand Now

We won't pretend it didn't happen — here's what we know

In late May 2026, independent outlets (zerkalo.io, Nasha Niva, udf.name) reported raids on Royal Partners' Minsk offices. Several staff members were detained, and the company gave no official explanation. Some reports mentioned temporary withdrawal problems — at the time, there was reportedly no one available to authorize payouts.

As of today (based on observations and discussions in affiliate community chats): partners report May payouts arrived, followed by June — meaning obligations to affiliates have been cleared. The company continues operating: on August 6–7, 2026, the Royal Partners team attended the Ace Alliance Riga industry meetup — independently confirmed, including by the event's own website.

We weren't witnesses to the internal situation and can't personally verify every detail — only what's visible from outside: the raids were real, and as of now the program is operating and paying. If you're planning to commit large traffic volumes, it's reasonable to confirm current payout status with your manager first, as with any program. The full timeline is in our separate breakdown: Is Royal Partners Shutting Down? Raids and a Buyout Offer.

Royal Partners Brands

17 casino brands in the portfolio — each one's GEO priority and casino type

Most Recognizable Brands

STARDA · since 2022
Operated by GALAKTIKA N.V., Curaçao license 8048/JAZ2016-050. 2,000+ games. One of the few brands in the portfolio still open to RU traffic — CIS is the priority GEO.
LEGZO · since 2022
Same operator and license as Starda. 3,000+ games, including sportsbook. Built from the start for a Russian-speaking audience — CIS priority GEO.
IZZI · since 2021
Operated by Carrer N.V. 6,000+ games from 30+ providers, players from 60+ countries. Unlike Starda and Legzo, it doesn't officially serve CIS — priority is Tier-1 and international traffic.
VOLNA · since 2022
Same operator, Carrer N.V., as Izzi, licensed by Antillephone 8048/JAZ2016-050. 50+ providers. Payment methods geared toward CIS: Mir cards, Piastrix, crypto — CIS priority GEO.

Based on public reviews, most of the portfolio (Starda, Legzo, Gizbo, Lex, 1Go, Drip, Jet, Fresh, Sol, Rox, Fugu, Iris) runs under a single operator — GALAKTIKA N.V. (Curaçao), while Izzi and Volna run under Carrer N.V. That explains the shared infrastructure, similar licenses, and overlapping provider pools across most brands.

Fixed or Dynamic RevShare — Which to Choose

Fixed 40% — a stable rate regardless of traffic volume. Predictable, but with no upside ceiling.

Dynamic 20–60% — the rate grows with the volume of players you bring in, but it also falls: if traffic stops for a month or two, the rate can drop to 25–30%. For steady, consistent traffic, Dynamic pays off better long-term; for irregular traffic, Fixed is more reliable.
