Poker room software built for California cardroom regulations
California's regulatory landscape is uniquely demanding. CardOpz was designed from the ground up with BGCB compliance requirements — not bolted on as an afterthought.
Built for the most regulated card rooms in the country
Every compliance feature is built into the core platform — capturing data as your floor operates, not as an afterthought.
CTR/MTL Monitoring
The system tracks cumulative player activity across your floor in real time, flagging transactions approaching CTR and MTL reporting thresholds with automated alerts. Full transaction logging and audit trails keep your data capture compliance-ready for the BGCB.
Payout & Tax Docs
W2-G documents are created instantly when payout thresholds are met. Year-end 1099 reporting is automated. W9 and W8-BEN forms are captured digitally at registration and stored in each player profile.
Employee Action Logging
Every action by every employee is logged with a timestamp, user ID, and description. Cage transactions, player account changes, comp issuances, and void operations are all captured automatically.
Cash & Chip Security
Track chip inventories, cage balances, and cash movements in real time. Fill and credit transactions are logged automatically. Variance alerts flag discrepancies before they become problems.
P&P Audit Readiness
CardOpz captures the operational data that demonstrates compliance with your Policies & Procedures — from player identification to cash handling protocols — so you are always audit-ready.
Role-Based Access + MFA
Define exactly who can see what. Multi-factor authentication protects every login. Sensitive operations require supervisor authorization with a full audit trail.
Why generic casino software doesn't work for California
California cardrooms operate under the Bureau of Gambling Control — a completely different regulatory framework than Nevada or tribal gaming. Player-banked games, unique transaction reporting structures, and state-specific compliance obligations mean generic casino software creates gaps that become audit risks. CardOpz was built for this environment from day one.
More than compliance — a complete operations platform
Your software should handle your entire operation, not just the regulatory piece. CardOpz includes everything you need to run your floor.
Floor Management
Real-time table maps, seat assignments, and dealer rotations.
Waitlist
Digital waitlist with real-time position updates and SMS alerts.
Tournaments
Registration, clocks, payouts, and multi-flight support built in.
Player App
White-label PWA with live games, waitlists, and promotions under your brand.

Yes. While CardOpz was built with California's rigorous compliance requirements as the foundation, the platform is adaptable to other state regulatory environments. The compliance engine can be configured for different reporting thresholds, document formats, and regulatory workflows.
CardOpz maintains complete audit trails for every transaction, employee action, and player interaction. When the BGCB requests documentation, your compliance team can pull any report — CTRs, MTLs, tax documents, employee logs, cash movement records — in minutes, not days.
