ECOGRA ACCREDITS TWO MORE ONLINE CASINOS


Posted 2/6/11 : Red Flush and Casino La Vida can now display Safe and Fair seal from player protection body
 
Two internet casinos in the Club Red Gaming online gambling group, Red Flush and Casino La Vida, have successfully passed a tough inspection process to secure accreditation with the independent player protection and standards organisation eCOGRA.
 
By achieving the required standards, the two operations are now permitted to carry eCOGRA's Safe and Fair seal, currently displayed by some 145 tier one online gambling websites that are monitored continuously for compliance with eCOGRA requirements. These include provisions regarding responsible gambling measures, fair gaming standards, unbiased dispute resolution, fair and timely payouts and efficient customer support.
 
“We’re certainly proud of our newest accomplishment and are glad to be recognised for our ongoing transparency, integrity and satisfactory operating standards,” said Alex Roberts, Red Flush Casino Retention Manager, this week.
 
“Both Red Flush Casino and Casino La Vida have individually been awarded the title of “Best New Online Casino” in 2008 and 2010 respectively, and to now achieve accreditation by eCogra illustrates that we’re passionate about serving our players in the best way possible,” he added.
 
Since 2003, eCogra has developed professional relationships with close to 30 software providers and 80 online gaming operators. The London-based organisation was founded by competing online gambling software companies with the goal of improving operational standards and player protection in the internet gambling industry.
 
Accredited companies must comply with practical business and integrity standards, coupled with an impartial inspection, review and ongoing monitoring program.
 
The standards cover online casino and poker room operations, Internet bingo, sportsbetting, mobile and live gambling businesses, and affiliate program best practice through an Affiliate Trust Seal, positioning its influential accreditation within reach of all online gambling companies.
 
The standards are accepted by several international online gambling regulators and by bodies such as the European Gaming and Betting Association, which counts most of Europe's major online operators among its members.
 
Red Flush Casino and Casino La Vida each currently host over 450 games powered by Microgaming software.
