Seeing as they are in partnership with the UKGC, that seems likely.The thing is, if UKGC start implementing regulations that favor players rather than casinos, they risk casinos pulling out of the UK, and that sweet sweet money goes away never to come back.
We have the same thing here in Sweden.
The Swedish license was not created to make it safer & better for the people playing, it was created to get a slice of the money that otherwise just went out of the country.
Atleast thats how i see it.
I mean, they dont even help with complaints vs the casinos they give out licenses to.
They exist to collect license fees and to hand out fines.

I came up with one a few years ago Play'n Watch Your Money Go or maybe Pray'n See Your Dough GoPerhaps they should be rebranded as Play'n No Dough
It always surprises me that the operators big enough to advertise on telly and sponsor events/teams will cut RTP so drastically however.
Yes, things like Gamstop/spelpaus look good on paper, but lets be honest, for people with a 'real' gambling problem i doubt it helps at all.That's pretty what countries want when they realized that own regulated market could get country some money from taxes and licenses instead of just all gambling problems. That's how it pretty much was in Sweden before SGA started regulatory 2019 and still is in Finland and many other countries. Don't really see much benefit for player what SGA is doing, of course you can set self-exclusion through Spelpaus but that's only valid for casinos who hold that license.
Then there are casinos who just don't mind of giving bonuses for players who they shouldn't, but SGA been reported quite many of them and they hopefully take some action as some of them do hold SGA license and same time let Swedish players take part of different promotions, hopefully we see shortly on some threads that you Sweds are protected from evil promotions.

Maybe 20 years ago it would have been a great thing, but today with vpn:s, cryptocasinos, and the big 'black market' with sites accepting anyone who has money i cant see it helping very much.
Even if i sign up to spelpaus and block all sites with a Swedish license, i can be on a cryptocasino in the next 5 minutes and keep gambling if i want to.
Very very true. It’s so depressing. All about squeezing every last bit of profit in the shortest amount of time. It’s pretty much the same across every sector.You've more or less answered your own question. The whole thing has been ruined by global corporatism, which poisons or destroys everything it touches. You're just a cash cow for the corporates, whose only consideration is brand and maximum profit. Where do you suppose the money comes from for all those lucrative sponsership deals? It's not just casino's either. Nobody has any pride in their product anymore and just sell out to the highest bidder for a fast buck. Screw the consumer.
If I remember correctly is that Slots Magic old Jackpot Party?
We (the public, that is, not CM members) are the ones enabling this garbage, if money stopped flowing into these nerfed games then they would go back to their former glory very quickly. Sadly, the short-term "advertise to death then fleece 'em" strategy seems to be a profitable one.Skill-on-net also run their MicroGaming slots, which have an adjustable RTP, such as TSII, IR, BDBA etc at 92%
I wouldn't play Red Tiger slots if they were on 101%. Fucking terrible games...?I refuse to play anything under 94% which rules out most Red Tigers and half the PNG,s.
Wont be too far into the future where slots are below 90% rtp in the Uk. So glad I have quit the UK market. I will go to Land based as its a totally different expereince. But these days with chronic support and a very impersonal expereince its just not enjoyable anymore. And to think we pay casinos for this shit. lol. I know they are still a good few reps here but for the most part its a terrible player expereince these days. And lower n lower rtps is the icing on top of the swamp.
