The online casino group Star Partner is
the latest affiliate program to get the
eCOGRA rating. This rating is something
that all online casino affiliate
programs hope to get, and they truly
aspire to it as it changes the way that
players view their sites.
eCOGRA is an independent monitoring
affiliate program that “ensures
adherence to consistent standards
through regular monitoring and full
annual reviews carried out by
appropriately qualified audit and
accounting professionals.” They do not
give out their accreditation lightly,
and anyone who has it is considered a
quality online casino site.
Star Partner is just the latest
affiliate program to get their
certification, there are others that
have gotten it as well and they all live
up to the name of eCOGRA certified. In
order to get the certification from the
online casino watch group you have to
show that you make payments to your
players promptly, that you calculate you
affiliate revenue accurately and pay out
to them on time, that you communicate to
your affiliates in a concise manner and
that you enforce and monitor your best
practice standards.
The online casino affiliate program must
adhere to these rules to get the
certification, and if it turns out that
you are not following the letter of the
law after you have gotten it, eCOGRA
will take that certification away. They
have found that there are many more
companies interested in becoming part of
an online casino affiliate program when
they see that certification in place.
