2. What promo modules are built in and how are they logged for audit?
3. Is there a real-time event export (Kafka/Webhook) to our DWH?
4. 95th percentile of withdrawal and% of automatic reconciliations?
5. 12 Month License/Certification Roadmap?

Pre-production checklist
- Sanity E2E: deposit → game/bet → cashout (success/failure/retray).
- RTP register/feature by country, feature flags, backup configs.
- Promo Audit: Rules, Members, Winners, Evidence Pack.
- Observability: dashboards/alerts, incident runbooks, DR exercise.
- Privacy/RG: PII masking, access roles, localized texts, and limits.
- Antifraud: velocity rules, graph signals, "soft" reactions.
Common mistakes and how to avoid them
One build "for all markets." Make configs/feature flags, not multiply artifacts.
Promo without magazine. Log rules/winners, prepare packages for regulators.
Telemetry "last step." Event scheme and dashboards - first of all.
Underestimating payments. Duplicate PSP, measure cashout percentiles and chargebacks.
Weak RG/locale. These are the same release gates as stability and perf.
An innovative platform for the operator is a balance of PAM/wallet, promotional automation, payments, data and compliance. EveryMatrix and SOFTSWISS give speed and depth, Playtech and LNW - enterprise and live, GiG and Bede - flexible PAM and BI, Pragmatic Solutions - experiment speed, BetConstruct - multi-product, Kambi/Open Bet is a top sport. Choose for your markets and goals, launch with telemetry and RG-gates - and the platform will become not a "gasket," but an engine of predictable growth.
