Aristocrat Technologies Inc. is the online division of Aristocrat Leisure, an Australian slot machine manufacturer based in Sydney. Aristocrat was founded by Len Ainsworth in 1955, when legal gambling was done in poker clubs. Aristocrat pokies (slot machines in Australia) were the dominant gaming machines in Australia until the 1990s, when IGT Australia began to make inroads. In the 90s, Len Ainsworth was diagnosed with cancer and retired to let his children run the company. When the diagnosis proved wrong, he founded Ainsworth Gaming Technology (AGT), which remains a rival of Aristocrat to this day.

Through aggressive acquisitions and strategic partnerships, new Aristocrat CEO Jamie O’Dell has made the company a global competitor, with major assets in the online, mobile, tribal, and social gaming niches. This article discusses Aristocrat Technologies, the online and mobile gaming wing of the company. As of 2016, Aristocrat is licensed in over 200 jurisdictions and operates in 90 countries worldwide.

Players might be frustrated that they cannot find Aristocrat pokies online. That’s because the company works through partnerships and subsidiaries, so their games are often listed as belonging to those companies. The Game Account Network and NYX Gaming are two examples of such partnerships.

Game Account Network (GAN) Partnership

In 2011, Aristocrat signed a deal with Game Account Network (GAN) for online distribution. Game Account Network is London-based and focuses on person-to-person games of skill. It is active in over 130 countries and has licenses in most European countries which allow online gaming.

GAN software is used in 18 sites, so players can search for Aristocrat Online Casino games on any of the sites below. Most of these sites cater to Italian gamblers, though some are active in Germany. One is active in the licensed New Jersey online gambling market.

NYX Gaming Partnership

In 2013, Aristocrat signed a similar deal with NYX Gaming, a developer based in Stockholm, Sweden. NYX Gaming received the right to distribute 8 video slots to online and mobile casinos, so you’ll find a good amount of Aristocrat online pokies in casinos using NYX Gaming software.
