LeoVegas Assessed by eCOGRA and Passes with Flying Colors

The LeoVegas (STO: LEO) online casino, which was launched in 2012, has undergone an assessment by eCommerce Online Gaming Regulation and Assurance (eCOGRA). The test was done so as to check into the casino’s framework and its set routines for protecting its registered customers.

Through that assessment, eCOGRA has found that LeoVegas is offering gaming services that “are in conformity with the recommendations the European Commission has published for online gaming”.

eCOGRA is a British-based organization, which carries out testing, certification, and assessment of gambling companies. This has been the case since it was founded in 2003 as a way of establishing and improving on various operational standards. Through it, the first formal self-regulation program was introduced to the gambling sector, and it has been awarded the UK Accreditation Service (UKAS) ISO approvals ISO/IEC17025:2005. Player safety requirements within the online gambling sphere are also taken care of through the organization’s assessment process.

It was during the spring months of 2021 that eCOGRA conducted its tests on the LeoVegas platform. The prime reason behind this was to ensure that it continues conforming with the recommendations laid out by the European Commission. The protection of gambling consumers is one focus of it, while the prevention of minors and vulnerable people from the effects of gambling is another

Through the assessment, all of the brands owned by LeoVegas have been checked into, and the review of the tests shows that the brand passed all standards. No further remarks were needed on the way that the brand operates.

Yet, this assessment wasn’t carried out on the initiative of eCOGRA. Instead, LeoVegas requested for it to be done, believing that a vital part of offering online gambling is to ensure safety for customers.

Gustaf Hagman LeoVegas Group CEO

Offering a safe and secure gaming experience and preventing minors from online gambling has always been our top priority. It is therefore reassuring that LeoVegas’ work in this area has now been assessed and reviewed by an external, independent party that confirms we are in conformity with the Commission’s recommendations.
