eCOGRA has extended its seal to online sportsbooks, and it’s about time! I’m not complaining, I love eCOGRA, and if it weren’t for them, I think there would be a lot of online sportsbetting fans cheated out of their money! It would just seem to me that sportsbooks would immediately be included in their roster of accepted websites, as they are used just as frequently as casinos.
eCOGRA now covers all bases, so they will be available for all of your gaming needs. I wonder if those guys that got ripped off by Bet10 would be able to apply for some sort of arbitration now. They serve as a mediation service to anyone who might need it, which is a lovely thing to have – especially if you’re an U.S. citizen – because many times when something comes up with an internet gambling site, the authorities tend to turn the other cheek. If I were an internet gambling operation, the last place I’d want to hear from is eCOGRA, unless they were on my side of course.
I can’t say that they were too behind the times since many of the online casinos they’ve prompted include internet sportsbooks as well, and I would imagine that they would have to inspect every gambling offer a website has since their process is so thorough.
They haven’t yet listed any approved sportsbooks and I imagine this is because it takes so long to get an approval. They have to physically visit your headquarters and inspect that on top of your website, so it’s no walk in the park. They have approved a couple of mobile gambling sites, which is a new feature. To date Wild Jack Mobile and Zero 36 mobile are the only two that have made it on the list.
The company has also offered its seal to live betting facilities, and I almost wonder if this will include offline sportsbetting lounges as well. I’m pretty excited to see who’s gonna make it.
