There are certain organizations that ensure safe and lawful operations are being done in the online casino industry. Such institution is eCOGRA, which means e-Commerce and Online Gaming Regulation and Assurance. This organization just got bigger and better, so more online casinos and players can take advantage of their services. eCOGRA started operating back in 2003 and since has become the industry leader in this matter.
Another bad news is on its way for online casino players from the United States. The UIGEA regulations will be effective shortly and many companies from this industry are trying to find ways to work around the new laws or are preparing to leave this market. The biggest casino software developer is thinking about having all its powered casinos leave the United States market. Microgaming was not accepting American players for some time, but still supported the old players from this country.

One of the biggest game producers in the online gambling industry is Playtech. The company recently revealed its financial information for 2025 and the number could not look better. There seems to have been an increase in profits of around 71 percent, which is a huge number, considering the size of the company. This shows how profitable the business with online casino operators is these days.
Also, the start of 2025 looks very promising for Playtech Casinos and the company owners think that this trend is due to the recovery of European economy and the new licenses they have accomplished.
