Canada’s most esteemed licensing bodies for casinos – The Malta Gaming Authority (MGA) and the UK Gambling Commission (UKGC) have recently held an official meeting in a collaborative effort to address the growing exigencies of Responsible Gambling properly.
Joint Effort for Responsible Play
With hundreds of licenced online casinos, the need to put an elevated standard to user safety and responsible gambling has become a must within the iGaming industry.
Defined as a priority, the two worldwide leading casino regulators – MGA and UKGC – have met in Malta for a 2-day ongoing discussion about user integrity, anti-money laundering and refining Responsible Gambling tools for a more positive and sustainable gaming practice.
The fast-emerging cryptocurrencies available in online casinos were among the heightened topics discussed. AML/CFT compliance measures, as well as the use of Distributed Ledger Technology (DLTs) for user safety, were also highlighted.
The UKGC also took the meeting as a chance to present its latest progress on the UKGC’s White Paper Act – which directly addresses illegal gambling as well as the cross-government collaboration needed to strengthen online casino security measures.
About Casino Licensing in Canada
Most of Canada’s provinces accept the operations of all online casinos as long as they follow the strict Canada Gambling Law standards. The latter specifically outlines that all casinos have to be registered through Canada’s Licence list – with the highly esteemed MGA and UKGC as the top-most recognized casino regulators.
All the casinos we review on our site follow high safety standards and are properly licensed and regulated as per Canada Gambling laws.
