The Importance of Certifications

As interest in gambling continues to grow, it’s no secret that the industry is coming under increased scrutiny from lawmakers and regulators around the world. The frequency and severity of fines seems to be growing, and public perception has taken a hit via a pattern of negative attention from major media outlets.

In response, companies that operate in this space have largely stepped up their efforts to promote safer gambling practices. And certifications have become increasingly important for operators seeking to gain trust and credibility in the eyes of regulators, customers, and journalists alike.

At SG:certified, we believe that safer gambling certifications are more than worthwhile; they’re outright imperative to the future of the industry.

Our mission is to help our clients achieve their certification goals, and we believe that our expertise and experience can be a real asset for any operator looking to build a safer, more responsible gambling environment.

1. Demonstrate a commitment to safer gambling

First and foremost, certifications are a way for gambling operators to demonstrate their commitment to trustworthy, responsible gambling practices.

With global regulators becoming increasingly strict about compliance and transparency, certifications are a way for operators to show that they view these issues seriously and are taking concrete steps to protect their customers.

2. Build trust with licensing bodies and regulators

Secondly, certifications help operators build trust with licensors and regulators.

Going hand-in-hand with the broader crackdown, it’s becoming increasingly difficult for operators to procure licences in new jurisdictions. By obtaining certifications from trusted thirdparty organisations, operators can demonstrate to regulators that they are serious about complying with the basic rules and regulations governing online gambling.

This might be especially important for smaller companies and newer operators, who still need this sort of infallible guidance as they implement their own safer gambling programs.

3. Attract new customers

Certifications can also help operators attract new, more loyal customers.

4. Build a better workforce

Another benefit of this type of proactive resolve is the potential to build a better team of workers.

Just like customers, employees of this industry have grown more discerning about which companies they’re willing to attach themselves to. An operator who demonstrates their commitment to their customers’ well-being is more likely to attract interest from leading members of the workforce who are likewise concerned about driving this industry toward a safer and more sustainable future.
