Problem Gambling Awareness month is right around the corner. Today we're celebrating by announcing that we've received responsible gaming certification from the National Council on Problem Gambling (NCPG) as part of its Internet Responsible Gambling Compliance Assessment Program.
iCAP certification is the highest standard in the U.S. for online responsible gaming.
“In achieving iCAP accreditation, Jackpocket Casino has emerged as a pioneer in prioritizing player protection and responsible gambling practices within the U.S. iGaming landscape,” said Keith Whyte, NCPG Executive Director. “We applaud Jackpocket for emphasizing the safety of their users and for setting an exemplary standard for the industry.”
The rigorous evaluation required of Jackpocket Casino to receive iCAP certification consisted of a product and website overview, interviews with management and customer service teams, and an audit of the company’s responsible gaming policies, tools, advertising, and promotions. The audit was conducted by Gambling Integrity, one of the world’s leading consultancies in responsible gambling.
To earn this certification, Jackpocket demonstrated dedication to player safety through a variety of features.
