More than just a gaming platform – we are a community
Poker88 was founded in 2018 by a group of digital entertainment industry professionals with a shared goal: to build an online casino platform that truly understands the needs, culture and lifestyle of Malaysians. Unlike foreign platforms that simply translate their websites into Bahasa Malaysia, poker88 was built from the ground up with Malaysia at its core.
Over the past seven years, poker88 has grown from a small platform into one of the most recognised names in Malaysia's online casino industry. With over 500,000 registered members across the country – from Petaling Jaya to Kota Kinabalu, from Kuching to Johor Bahru – we are proud to say that the trust Malaysian players have placed in poker88 is the achievement we value most.
The poker88 team comprises over 200 professionals with expertise spanning technology, finance, user experience, customer support, and regulatory compliance. This breadth of background and specialisation ensures that every aspect of our platform – from the user interface to transaction security – is handled to the highest standard.
Poker88 is not a foreign company operating in Malaysia – we are a platform built specifically to meet the needs and preferences of local players. This means:
