Online Casinos Choosing Antigua

Antiguan online casino gambling companies have to be breathing a sigh of relief as the industry enters the new year and the Antigua internet gambling licensing jurisdiction was just approved for the UK White List. The Antiguan economy was hit really hard more than two years ago when the US banned financial transactions between US players for foreign online casinos. As part of the recovery efforts Antigua applied to the UK for inclusion on the UK’s white list – this list allows Antiguan licensed online casinos to advertise throughout the UK.

Antigua’s online casino gambling industry has been on the decline for the past two years because of the inability to access the US gambling market. This new opportunity within the UK market provides the company with unprecedented new options. The white listing status has already opened new doors and online casinos are beginning to seek out Antiguan licensing. As internet gambling companies are now seeking out Antiguan licensing the government anticipates that revenue will increase as much as 100 percent initially and continue to increase as more internet gambling companies bring in additional revenue.

The UK white listing process is a way for the UK government to protect UK gamblers from online casinos that are not licensed in an approved safe and fair licensing jurisdiction. Antigua applied for white listing last year and the recent approval means that any internet casinos currently licensed out of Antigua and Barbuda now have the right to advertise in the UK under UK gambling advertisement laws.
