Recommended sequence:
- Start with required coverage. List the titles and studios that justify playable pages; do not begin with an arbitrary catalogue-size target.
- Evaluate a free route alongside paid proposals. Require a demonstrable difference in eligible coverage, service or operating effort.
- Request evidence before integration. Collect agreements, restrictions, exports and commercial schedules.
- Run the same pilot across candidates. Keep unknown rights and untested titles visible.
- Calculate twelve-month total cost. Include staff effort and migration, not only subscription fees.
- Separate current expenditure from future scenarios. Do not turn an illustrative budget into a market benchmark.
- Resolve near-term changes. Existing Slots Launch customers should address the documented 15 November 2026 signing deadline. (docs.slotslaunch.com)
