Established in 1999, and part of the PlayShare Partners Group of casinos, Pharaoh's Casino was, for many years, one of the top sites that carried Boss Media software. When the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act came into effect in the USA in 2006, Boss Media forced its licensees to close their doors to US account holders. As a result, Pharoah's Casino decided to switch to the Microgaming software platform and has since reopened to US player accounts.
