We strive to facilitate and encourage the adoption of
self-regulatory practices for the online skill gaming industry.
Code of Conduct : We remain committed to
ensuring player safety and protection through our rigorous
Code of Conduct (“CoC”). We have worked with global gaming
regulatory experts from the US and Europe to design
transparent, professional, and ethical operating standards
that prescribe and enforce a set of rules for members to
operate responsibly while ensuring customer security and
player protection.
EGF Certification: We certify our members
who meet all requirements as laid out in the Code of Conduct
and have undergone the mandatory audit by an independent,
third-party audit firm to ensure compliance. Such eligible
members are awarded the EGF certification.
Player Protection: Endorsing ‘Responsible
Play’, we offer a self-assessment tool – a reliable and
standardized measure of assessing irresponsible behavior
while playing. Our responsible gaming rules and guidance
provide a framework for addressing gaming concerns in new
and potentially effective ways to protect players.
Knowledge Partner: Focused market
research, events, and other industry initiatives are
implemented through various committees of EGF to support
industry growth, create awareness, and promote a fair and
responsible game-play environment for all stakeholders.
