Monitoring the Online Casinos

Gambling sites are licensed for the global gambling industry through a number of remote licensing jurisdictions. It just so happens that most of the more prominent gambling jurisdictions operate out of smaller islands or remote areas of larger nations – but that is not wholly the case. These licensing jurisdictions are actually in competition with one another because the highly reputable licensing jurisdictions have higher standards and, in some cases, are allowed more access to advertising and influence in international markets. The Kahnawake Gaming Commission operates out of the Mohawk Territory in Quebec and previously encountered some serious issues with several of the online casino and poker gambling companies licensed out of the country.

In essence, the Kahnawake Gaming Commission has never fully recovered from the Ultimate Bet and Absolute Poker gambling scandals. The licensing jurisdiction actually licenses a huge number of the international sites operating in the market, and in a move to boost the reputation of the sites licensed out of the jurisdiction, the Commission announced it had employed eCOGRA to assess and monitor all of the online casinos licensed and operating out of the jurisdiction. eCOGRA is one of the top player advocacy groups in the global online casino gambling industry so its actually quite significant that it has agreed to work with the Kahnawake Gaming Commission.

The new program launching with called the Continual Compliance Program and will take effect immediately. With the assistance of eCOGRA, all licensed sites in the jurisdiction will face an annual review of policies and procedures. This new program really indicates that the Commission is making a clear and strong effort to provide the global online casino gambling industry with safe and fair gaming.
