Online Casino Companies Seek Compliance

The UK gambling industries has some of the toughest standards and regulations in the world – the jurisdiction passed the 2005 Gambling Act which both liberalized the industry while also placing very specific regulations on the policies and practices of online casino gambling companies. The UK Gambling Commission is responsible for ensuring that any internet gambling company in the UK adheres to the nation’s regulations and follows the precise regulation. While this is a tough job for the Commission, the advancements in the UK’s testing regime means online casinos will have more options when it comes to compliance.

The Gambling Commission has made a conscious effort in recent months to expand the number of approved test houses in the UK. Three new test houses have been fully approved by the Commission and can now test any UK online casino gambling company for compliance with the Commission’s high standards. This marks an important advancement since companies are frequently found in violation of minute details and just need some policy adjustments to come into full compliance.

On the list of companies now accepted in the UK and able to test online casinos include both Gaming Laboratories International LLC and Gambling Laboratories Austria GmBH, and Gaming Associates. Each of these companies have been added to the list of approved test houses as all three met some of the minimum standards for UK test house approval. The UK additionally encourages online gambling companies to actively and regularly use the list of approved internet gambling sites to ensure their policies meet the requirements of offering gambling services to the UK market.
