The first independent gambling guide to the best online
casinos!
Many online casinos receive Play it
Safe Seals from Industry leading watchdog
The online casinos
industry is exploding all over the world. Thousands of players are at
gambling portals and poker rooms this very moment, betting away in
different currencies all around the world. According to special reports,
the allure of online casinos and poker is growing even more in recent
months. Online casinos, as a hobby, are growing very quickly worldwide
and logging into online casinos is one of the fastest ways to gamble.
The online casinos industry is a $12 Billion dollar a year venture, and
thousands of online casinos are crowding the marketplace looking to
attract new players and retain current consumers. These online casinos
employ special promotion strategies, bonuses, and other deals to excite
interest in fans.
But some people still have reservations about the integrity and honesty
of online casinos. Are online casinos secure? Some people believe they
are not. To respond to these criticism of online casinos, a firm has
become the industry watchdog for online casinos and has the highest
standards in the industry. The firm, eCOGRA hands out “play it safe”
seals to online casinos it believes are safe and is closing in on its
2006 target of 100 accredited online casinos.
Ecogra, the standards body of the online gambling industry has taken a
step closer to its 2006 target of accrediting 100 online gambling
portals and poker rooms. By certifying an additional 12 sites, now 85
sites have successfully passed its independently administered checks and
monitoring to receive the "Play It Safe" seal.
Seven sites managed by the Tusk Investment Corporation in Australia and
a further five operated by the Vegas Partner Lounge group received the
"Play It Safe" seal for fair gaming and best operational practices. Tusk
Investment Corporation is about to be acquired by the Australian listed
company Global Approach Limited on the 1st of July 2006 for AUS$ 19.37
million and manages the following successful applicants: Challenge
Casino, Golden Reef Casino, Music Hall Casino, Nostalgia Casino, UK
Casino Club, iBig Casino, and Poker Metro.
The Vegas Partner Lounge group added to its already accredited list of
gambling portals and poker rooms with the following new 'Play It Safe'
seal awards: 28 Vegas Casino, Casino France Net, Crazy Multiplayer
Casino, Crazy Poker, and Golden Riviera Poker.
"Leading online casinos and poker room brands recognize that players
care about the "Play It Safe" seal, and that seal-bearing casinos
attract more players and create additional revenue opportunities, " said
eCOGRA CEO Andrew Beveridge. "We applaud these operators for their
efforts and encourage others to help us reach our 100 seals goal by
committing to the eCOGRA principals of fair gaming, responsible conduct
and player protection."
eCOGRA is the independent standards authority for the online gambling
industry, and is committed to protecting online casino and poker players
around the world. The non-profit organization addresses the most
important issues to players: fast payouts, fair gaming, responsive and
efficient service and responsible operator conduct.
