TIPICO IS THE FIRST U.S. SPORTS BETTING OPERATOR TO RECEIVE ICAP ACCREDITATION FOR BEST PRACTICES IN ONLINE GAMBLING PLAYER PROTECTION

Published

on

Tipico Sportsbook, a leading sports betting operator, today announced that it has earned Internet Compliance Assessment Program (iCAP) accreditation in New Jersey and Ohio for best practices in customer protection. Tipico is the first sportsbook in the United States to pursue and achieve this accreditation.

Administered by the National Council on Problem Gambling (NCPG), iCAP accreditation is the highest standard for online gambling player protection in the U.S. The iCAP framework is based on the Internet Responsible Gambling Standards which guides operators to ensure that player protection remains at the forefront of operations.

In February 2024, Tipico launched the Fair Play Pledge, a first-of-its-kind, holistic long-term initiative that aligns closely with the standards set forth by iCAP. Notable feedback from the assessment highlighted several features embedded in the pillars of the Fair Play Pledge, including clear communication of odds and promotions, streamlined access to the Tipico Help Center, limits, and cool-off periods, and 24/7 human customer service. Tipico has also implemented a phase-based approach to recognize, help, and educate customers who have exceeded its “Responsible Gambling Automated Thresholds.”

“iCAP accreditation is a meaningful award for Tipico because it validates our approach to make fair play a companywide initiative that requires buy-in by our employees. I am incredibly proud of our team for rallying around our efforts to continuously improve safety and clarity,” said Bryan Schroeder, Senior Vice President – Compliance & Legal at Tipico. “Our primary goal is to ensure customers have the best possible experience when they place a bet because they trust us and our products.”

Achieving iCAP accreditation requires a thorough evaluation of company governance, customer support initiatives, employee training procedures, and efforts in research and education. The accreditation is valid through March 2026.

As part of the accreditation, an audit of Tipico’s Responsible Gaming practices was conducted by Gambling Integrity, one of the industry’s leading consultancies. The audit praised the development of the Fair Play Pledge and its place in “keeping with the spirit of the iCAP.”

“Tipico Sportsbook’s iCAP accreditation is a testament to their dedication to player protection. Through this achievement, Tipico showcases exemplary leadership and a commitment to responsible gambling best practices,” added Keith Whyte, NCPG Executive Director. “We commend Tipico for the unwavering commitment to the safety of their users and for setting an exemplary standard for the industry.”

Delasport Now GLI-Certified for Sports Betting in Brazil

Delasport Now GLI-Certified for Sports Betting in Brazil

 

Delasport has just become one of the first suppliers to obtain a GLI certification for its sportsbook in Brazil, two weeks before the historical regulation comes into effect.

Continuing its global growth, Delasport is bringing several operators on board in Brazil. In order to complete the process, operators that are applying for a new Brazilian license have 30 days to provide all relevant platform certificates from the moment that they are notified by the regulator that their initial submission has been accepted. This is also the moment that they can pay the license fee. Still, failure to provide platform certificates will result in the application being placed on hold.

Delasport turned to Gaming Laboratories International (GLI) for the certification of its sportsbook against Brazilian technical standards. The historical partnership with GLI was further strengthened by the news, a few months back, that GLI had become the first laboratory to achieve the local accreditation to certify for betting systems, live game studios, and online games by the Secretaria De PrĂȘmios e Apostas (SPA) in Brazil.

Delasport has successfully met all technical requirements for providing its sports betting solution to the largest country in South America. The certificate is evidence of the team’s experience, expertise, and determination to lead the way in key jurisdictions.

Obtaining a GLI certification for Brazil is a step towards cementing the trust players and operators have for Delasport’s products. This serves to show that the award-winning supplier is capable of meeting even the strictest industry standards for integrity and fairness.

“When we learnt that providing platform certificates to the regulator was on our partner operators’ critical path for obtaining the license, we immediately prioritized submitting the system to GLI for testing”, Delasport’s Chief Compliance Officer Filippo Ferri said. “Needless to say, GLI did a tremendous job of working with us to conduct the tests in record time, to match the submission deadline of some of our clients. I am also very proud of how our internal departments worked together to obtain this certificate, and of how they continue to push forward with the delivery of a datavault system that complies with SIGAP requirements.”

Operators that plan on entering the newly regulated Brazilian market will now have numerous advantages if they partner with Delasport. They will be able to provide their players with personalization features like My Sportsbook, My Event Builder, and My Combo that skyrocket revenues and retention.

Furthermore, Delasport’s KYC and AML provider is a market leader that guarantees the highest level of compliance for all operators that choose to go on this route.

Also, Delasport has already partnered with numerous local payment system providers and offers a real-time AI-powered Responsible Gambling system which can easily adapt to local regulations.
