Helio Gaming — provider review
A lottery with draws every two minutes, scratch cards with jackpots of up to €100,000 and a crash game: that is the catalogue of Helio Gaming. The Maltese studio has been operating since 2018 and specialises in lotteries and alternative casino games.
The studio's core idea is to give casinos their own lottery with frequent draws, so they don't depend on the schedule of national draws.

History

Licence
According to the studio's website, Helio Gaming Limited is registered in Malta under number C84419. It holds Malta Gaming Authority (MGA) B2B licence MGA/B2B/719/2019 for Type 1 services, issued on 22 September 2020.
How Helio Gaming lotteries work
The studio's lotteries run on its own random number generator, so draws take place very often — every 2 or 5 minutes or every hour, rather than once a week as in national lotteries.
Casinos can release such a lottery under their own brand and choose the prizes and draw schedule themselves. In the past, the studio also offered bets on the results of well-known international lotteries.
