The Responsible Online Gaming Association (ROGA) has partnered with the Responsible Gambling Council (RGC) to launch a U.S. certification program for online operators promoting player well-being and responsible gaming.

The certification program will offer a structured, data-driven approach to evaluating operator practices in areas such as self-exclusion, marketing, staff training, and player support tools. It will provide independent validation of operator performance, encouraging progress beyond regulatory minimums, with a focus on long-term accountability and continuing evolution of responsible gaming standards.

“A sustainable online gaming industry must be built on evidence-based best practices, and this partnership with RGC will advance this mission by building a trusted and independent assessment to certify robust responsible gaming standards. Our members are committed to long-term progress, and with RGC’s support, this program will serve as a clear signal that the industry is backing that commitment with actions that will allow players to make informed decisions about the platforms they use,” said ROGA Executive Director Dr. Jennifer Shatley.

RGC has been a leader in player protection, prevention and responsible gaming solutions globally for over 40 years. RGC’s RG accreditation program supports land-based and iGaming operators to evaluate, monitor, and manage all aspects of their RG strategy. RGC’s expertise in this space will serve as an essential resource in the creation and management of ROGA’s certification program.

“We are proud to work with ROGA in setting a new benchmark for responsible gambling in the online space. The new certification program will build on years of evidence-based work and experience building RG Check as a trusted standard. By working together, we are creating a more transparent, accountable, and player-focused industry,” said Sarah McCarthy, CEO of the Responsible Gambling Council.

This partnership builds on previous collaboration between RGC and ROGA, including joint research conducted on how to increase engagement with responsible gaming tools and work on public awareness initiatives, such as the Know Your Play college education campaign. It reflects a shared commitment to strengthen industry practices and increase public confidence in online gaming.

Underdog, the fastest-growing sports company in the US, and Crypto.com | Derivatives North America (CDNA), a CFTC-registered exchange and clearinghouse and an affiliate of Crypto.com, announced that sports event contracts will be accessible to customers through Underdog. CDNA sports event contracts will be powered by Underdog’s technology. This partnership offers American sports fans a secure, federally compliant way to access CDNA sports event contracts and make predictions on the outcomes of their favorite sports events, all within the Underdog app.

“Prediction markets are one of the most exciting developments we’ve seen in a long time. While still new and evolving, one thing is clear – the future of prediction markets is going to be about sports – and no one does sports better than Underdog,” said Underdog founder and CEO, Jeremy Levine.

With this launch, customers can express and trade their opinions on sports events contracts across all major sports leagues, including NFL, college football, NBA, MLB, and more. Prices update in real-time, allowing customers to react instantly and express their opinions on what’s going to happen on the field or court.

“We are thrilled to partner with Underdog to enhance the sports experience for customers nationwide with the ability to now trade using Underdog’s technology – all in one app. We were the first to offer sports events contracts, and our technology partnership with Underdog will provide more access to CDNA’s innovative offerings,” said Travis McGhee, Managing Director, Global Head of Capital Markets at Crypto.com.

As the only company built on its own proprietary technology across fantasy sports and sports betting regulatory frameworks, Underdog is now the only company offering fantasy sports, sportsbook, and prediction markets in one seamless app.

Underdog has gaming licenses in states across the country and has built industry-leading responsible gaming operations, with sophisticated customer protections ingrained into every facet of its platform. Underdog will bring that same level of customer protection and care to prediction market offerings.
