Helping players to trust online gambling

As 2007 reached an end, a scandal showed its face, leaving online gambling changed forever.

Absolute poker, the popular online poker room, admitted that they discovered a cheating employee. Soon after, Absolute´s sister site, UltimateBet, was found guilty of an inside cheating job as well. The Kahnawake Gaming commission confirmed both cheatings.
How could online gambling manage to survive after such incidents? How would online gambling sites around the world protect themselves from being cheated? What online casino / poker rooms can one trust? And how does one find these trustworthy sites? These were just some of the many questions that arose.

In response to the 2007 scandals, some positive things emerged, primarily, stricter regulation in online casinos (and the gambling industry in general). The best online gambling sites knew that not only would they need to earn the trust and loyalty of their players, but also that they would need to keep it.

Every mayor online casino is licensed, either by the country in which it operates or by some larger online entity. Most online gambling sites voluntarily look for independent gaming regulators like eCOGRA (eCommerce and Online Gaming Regulation and Assurance), a non profit entity dedicated to the regulation and ethical oversight of online gaming. After several requirements are passed, the casino gets a “safe and fair” seal, meaning approval from eCOGRA. Further, it must undergo independent audits to check all aspect of its software, games and operations, in order to keep the seal.

Here on CASINOINFO, all the sites we promote are approved and licensed. In fact, several of our affiliate sites are approved by eCOGRA itself. Please find a list of eCOGRA approved sites below:
