White Label Checklist was created for those entrepreneurs who are looking for a way to launch White Label platform or as other people call it – betting platform which incorporates Sportsbook, Virtual sports, Casinos and probably other very popular games of chance. Sometimes it is very difficult come to terms with the technology which is moving forward in leaps and bounds, so a better idea might be paying close attention to the functionality of the product rather than listening to the very much opinionated ideas and suggestions of the developers who offer White Label.
The best way to start discussion is to try to understand what White Label, online betting platform, actually is. It is true that the opinions on the matter do not hold together, therefore under the White Label product different companies mean different things. It would be easier to start form the other end and establish what this product should mean both functionally and operationally.

Most of the things should be done on the White Label provider side.
