The online casinos self-governing entity, eCOGRA, have launched their "100 Seals Campaign" as they were working with 76 online casinos. Their goal, as the name indicates, was to reach a number of 100 online casinos that carry the 'Play it Safe' seal that eCOGRA offers. The results of the campaign stunned everyone as eCOGRA broke the 100th online casinos site mark last week with 107 accredited online gambling venues - and way before schedule.
eCOGRA's objective is to make a better place for online casinos players by self-regulating the online casinos industry. Players know and trust eCOGRA and play mostly at sites that feature eCOGRA's seal of approval. For an online casinos site to earn the 'Play it Safe' seal, it has to meet eCOGRA's rules and code of behavior. That way eCOGRA is able to force online gambling operators to act in the players' interests and get more traffic in return.
The deal goes both ways and the online casinos industry proves that it can be regulated, and should be regulated. More online casinos sites join the eCOGRA network all the time, as they realize the importance of eCOGRA's seal on their websites as it shows players that it is safe to gamble on their online casinos site. If any government is aiming at regulating the online gambling industry, then eCOGRA's model will be the best option for such action. eCOGRA is currently working on a huge survey that will help them learn more about player's desires and the thing that needs to be changed in the industry.
