Accredited Casinos at Casinomeister
| How it's done |
Becoming an "Accredited Casino" at Casinomeister is not as easy as it may look. It takes a certain amount of commitment that not every casino is able to muster.
Before making any inquires, please try to understand what Casinomeister is and what it is not. Casinomeister is not a marketing site. It is a site dedicated to the Casinomeister mission and philosophy of how players ought to be treated - and what is expected of a member casino. Casinomeister member casinos are required to meet the following criteria:
Standards for Accredited Casinos
Player and Responsible Gaming Focused
- Must forbid underage play.
- Must have a clean history of fairness towards their customers.
- Must be able to take care of any player issue swiftly and professionally.
- Must display information about responsible gambling, with links to relevant organizations.
- Must offer and enforce spending limits in addition to both temporary and permanent self exclusion options.
Marketing Standards
- Must not use false, misleading or deceptive advertising.
- Must not spam, and must take appropriate actions against any affiliates or any third parties who do spam.
Operational Standards
- Must pay winnings in a timely manner.
- Must not disqualify any player from a payout if terms & conditions are met, except for situations of fraud (multiple-accounts, bogus ID documents, chargebacks, etc.,).
- Must not confiscate winnings for vague & unclear reasons, such as "irregular playing patterns" or "bonus abuse", without specific T&C violations.
- Must not implement terms that can be construed as "unfair" towards the player.
- No player shall be involuntarily placed into a situation which breaches the terms and conditions during the course of play.
- Must pay out progressive jackpot wins in full or in reasonable chunks, regardless of any terms and conditions limiting payouts.*
- Must remove any bonus and associated playthrough requirements at the request of the player if play has not commenced.
Industry and Player Assurances
- RNG and/or software must be audited by a third party.
- Must have a representative (who can walk and chew gum at the same time) listed in Casinomeister's forum.
- They must be licensed in a jurisdiction that offers gambling licenses.**
* Excluding WagerWorks casinos - this is noted within their listing.
**Under special circumstances, I will endorse casinos located in Costa Rica. This endorsement is based mainly on the casino's history of professionalism and player satisfaction.
Still interested? Well subscribe to the newsletter, lurk or participate in the forum, watch the webcasts. In essence, get actively (or vicariously) involved.
Normally, I meet with the casino reps in person before I bring them on. This is so we can discuss how one approaches this industry (read the Meister's Mission statement). In November, I'm scheduled to attend the G2E 2009 in November in Vegas, and the ICE in London January 2010.
If you would like to meet up with me, please let me know. Thanks!
