Watchdog Organisations

Online Casinos are constantly monitored by several watchdog organisations. These organisations are either Player associations or privately funded economic groups. They control the payback rates, probability settings and much more. Therefore, you should always look for the certificates that Online Casinos have.

Here a few serious watchdog organizations:

Interactive Gaming Council (IGC)
Gambling Commission
eCogra
Kahnawake Gaming Commission

We highly recommend the website of the Interactive Gaming Council. There you can find detailed information useful for all new gamblers.
