Build from the open core

Clone the repository, configure the Brand system, and use only what you need.

Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/kphilander/Playbook.git
  1. 1

    Clone or fork the repository

    Start with the complete Brand system, content library, templates, and website source.

  2. 2

    Configure your brand

    Set the program name, colors, fonts, support details, and market in _brand.yml. Rebuild or export the affected files and review their actual output; a setting does not update already-published copies.

  3. 3

    Review and publish

    Adapt the webpage, feeds, or widgets to your product. Verify module coverage, game rules, language, support and account links, accessibility, owners, and local approval before publishing.

Before publication

Before you publish.

Your team owns local decisions, working services, and publication approval.

  1. 1. Check the module’s actual scope

    The guide currently contains 11 jurisdiction modules. Coverage is limited to what each dated source documents; Macau and Singapore cover licensed land-based casinos. An unlisted market has no module. Check your operator, activity, game, channel and publication date against current local requirements.

    Check jurisdiction coverage and dates

  2. 2. Review the finished content

    Confirm game rules and assumptions, age notices, support contacts and opening hours. Replace example names, links and QR destinations. Review each language and the actual image, HTML or printed output in its placement.

    Inspect resources and their usage notes

  3. 3. Connect the real services

    Templates and widgets do not enforce account limits, pauses or exclusions. Connect and test the actual account, support, consent and notification flows. Check accessibility and the complete journey, including unsuccessful requests.

    Prepare the website template

  4. 4. Record approval and maintenance

    Assign owners, record the approved scope and file versions, and choose a review date. Define the pilot’s questions, measures and data handling before collecting results. A downloaded file or a completed checklist does not grant regulatory approval.

    Build a plan with owners and pilot questions

License

Use and adapt the Brand files for free.

Copy, change, and publish the Brand book, messages, source templates, and game guides without a permission request or attribution requirement. These Brand resources use the CC0 1.0 public-domain dedication. Here is what that covers:

What you can do

  • Use it commercially

    Use the Brand files in a paid operator program without a copyright licence fee.

  • Edit the Brand material

    Rewrite the copy, redraw the visuals, restructure the system.

  • Rebrand it as yours

    Swap in your own name, colors, and voice. The Playbook RG name is not required.

  • Keep your changes private

    CC0 does not require you to publish work built on top of the Brand system.

  • No permission needed

    You do not have to ask, register, or notify anyone first.

  • No attribution required

    You may credit Playbook RG, but you are not required to do so.

What CC0 does not cover

  • Other rights still apply

    The dedication does not grant trademark, patent, privacy or publicity rights. Check rights in third-party material and your uploaded logo. Do not imply that the author endorses your use.

  • No warranty

    The system is provided as is and is not guaranteed to suit a particular purpose.

  • Regulatory review is still required

    CC0 addresses copyright, not gambling regulation. Confirm compliance with the rules and legal guidance that apply in your jurisdiction.

Two Academy programs are also free

The All Employees orientation and Brand Foundations are free to take. Their CC BY-ND 4.0 terms require credit and a license link when sharing, and do not permit sharing adapted versions under that license. Ask about separate terms for adaptations, white-label use, or proprietary LMS embedding. The other courses are organization previews.

Implementation support

Need help putting it into practice?

01Scope to confirm

Configuration sprint

Discuss brand matching, template setup, and the outputs your team will review before publication.

02Scope to confirm

Guided rollout

Discuss integration, game-guide adaptation, local-review responsibilities and staff preparation. Confirm course access and licensing separately.

03Scope to confirm

Full program

Discuss custom messaging, player journeys, a proposed evaluation and maintenance responsibilities. Confirm deliverables and any assessment arrangements.

Discuss implementation
