eCOGRA, the London based online gambling industry watchdog group, has announced that it has revamped its website, with greater emphasis on player protection and user friendly features.
This is the second time that the website has been given a facelift in the group's seven years of existence.
Andrew Beveridge, the Chief Executive of eCOGRA, said that it was very important to provide online gamblers with a resource that would make them feel safe and protected when wagering on the internet.
"Player protection remains our most important goal, especially when assisting the community to confirm which sites are approved eCOGRA Safe and Fair Sealholders," said Beveridge.
"We have also improved player access, online complaint lodging and information on our independent dispute mediation service, where the Fair Gaming Advocate continues to assist players with any problems at accredited operators," he added.
In addition, there is plenty more data available on the updated website, providing information regarding the services offered by eCOGRA to software providers, online casinos, gamblers and other groups involved in the industry.
Beveridge believes that over 80 groups now use eCOGRA's unique services.
"Visitors will now find full details of business added-value services available from eCOGRA's professional staff of 12 chartered accountants, IT specialists and auditors," he said. "These include the original Safe and Fair seal, the Certified Software Seal, independent payout and RNG reviews, Accredited Testing Agency Services, the Affiliate Trust Seal and the Reputable Portals Seal."
