59 languages, all of them native

Ask. The list above is what we can staff today at our standard — a native writer living in the market, plus a second native speaker to edit. Adding a language means recruiting and vetting both, which typically takes three to five weeks and needs a real programme behind it.

We would rather tell you we cannot staff a language than take the work and quietly outsource it to a marketplace.

Because commercially they are separate. A Brazilian player does not read Portuguese from Portugal as native, a Mexican reads Spanish from Spain as slightly foreign, and an Austrian notices German written for Germany. Payment methods, operators, sports and legal wording all differ too.

Counting them as one language is how agencies end up with a single Spanish writer covering three continents.

No. Rates track writer supply. English, Spanish and Portuguese sit at the bottom; Nordic languages, Japanese, Korean and Icelandic sit at the top, sometimes at two to three times the English rate. Icelandic costs what it costs because there are only so many Icelandic writers who know iGaming.

Every quote lists the per-word rate per language so you can decide where the budget goes.

Yes — that is the normal shape of a market-launch project. The English or source version is finalised first, then localisation runs in parallel across every target locale, so all versions land together. Eight to twelve locales simultaneously is routine.

A second native speaker of that language, always — never a project manager with a translation tool. Our QA process is language-independent by design: the manager tracks the glossary, the schedule and the compliance checklist; the linguistic judgement belongs to the two native speakers on the piece.
