Leading slot manufacturer and lottery company International Game Technology Plc. has been granted the Internet Responsible Gambling Compliance Assessment Program (iCAP) certification in the U.S. in recognition of its service offering.
The certification provides assurance to both operators and consumers that IGT’s B2C websites and platforms offered in the B2B market are trustworthy and also compliant with the Internet Responsible Gambling Standards (IRGS), which are set by the National Council on Problem Gambling (NCPG).
IGT applied for the iCAP certification last month and became the subject of an independent assessment by U.K.-based Gambling Integrity. Working in collaboration with the NCPG, Gambling Integrity was able to verify the compliance of IGT’s responsible gaming program against the IRGS.
“One of our primary corporate social responsibility objectives is to ensure the integrity of the products and services we offer for the sole purpose of protecting players around the world,” said Matteo Monteverdi, senior vice president, global product marketing, interactive at IGT. “We will continue to strive to meet and, where possible, exceed iCAP requirements, and institutionalize a program that will be ever-evolving and continually improving.”
