RG Tech Protects
iDEA members actively address responsible gaming issues as part of their daily operations, continuously driving innovation. They leverage sophisticated technologies to provide a secure and enjoyable experience for online gaming consumers.
Online betting sites provide players with options to:
- Set time limits
- Set deposit / financial limits
- Self-exclude from gambling websites
Regulated iGaming Creates Responsible Gaming
The alternative to legal and regulated online gaming is highly accessible illegal sites that pose significant risks to consumers. Illegal online gaming sites let in organized crime, put player data at risk, allow underage betting, provide no help to those suffering from gambling addiction, and have zero accountability.
Benefits of Legal Online Gaming
Integrity and Transparency
Legal iGaming operators adopt responsible advertising and marketing practices for a safe gambling culture.
Identify and Address Problem Gambling
Legal iGaming platforms are required to employ technology that identifies and flags potentially risky behavior. Interventions, including referrals to assistance and options to self-exclude from betting sites, are prominently offered to players on legal iGaming sites.
Protect Against Underage Gambling
Legal iGaming operators use sophisticated age verification technology as part of the account registration process and continuously monitor users.
Prevent Crime
Using required advanced technologies that confirm every player’s identity and location - and that protect their data - regulated iGaming helps prevent fraud and crime.
