Name your casino
With no casino yet, the dashboard opens the first step,What is your casino called?. Enter the Casino name, for example Lucky Star, and the Website your players visit, for example luckystar.example. Once the website reads as an address, the hint under it shows which pages can show the games, for example Pages on luckystar.example and www.luckystar.example can show the games. The website must be the public name of your site: no IP address, no port and no local name such as localhost.
Select Continue. The dashboard creates your casino:
- Casino ID. The dashboard makes it from the name:
Lucky Starbecomeslucky-star. You cannot type or change it, and it never changes. Accents are dropped, every run of other characters becomes one hyphen, an ID that would not start with a letter getscasino-in front, and one shorter than 3 characters gets-casinoat the end. If another casino already has the ID, yours gets-2, then-3and so on up to-9, then four random letters. The result is 3 to 51 lowercase letters, digits and hyphens, starting with a letter. Your session tokens carry it astenant, and your game server’s default Worker name is built from it:og-rgs-lucky-star. - Mode. The casino starts in sandbox mode. See Sandbox and live.
- Games. Every game is on.

luckystar.examplegives the originshttps://luckystar.exampleandhttps://www.luckystar.example. Awww.host gives itself and the bare domain. Any other host, such asplay.luckystar.example, gives only itself. The issuer ishttps://followed by the host you entered. You can change all of them in Settings. - Look. The dashboard starts reading your website for the Look step at once, so its themes are often ready when you get there.
