Seamlessly navigate gaming regulatory standards with Quixant
In the world of casino and slot gaming, adhering to regulatory standards is crucial. There are a number of Independent Test Labs (ITLs), such as GLI (Gaming Laboratories International) and BMM Testlabs, who test and certify games for the global gaming industry.
One of the dominant global standards for electronic gaming machines is GLI-11 which can often be the basis for other jurisdictional regulatory standards. Other standards include, GLI-33 (for the sports betting industry), UKGC (UK Gambling Commission) Technical Standards, AAMS (Amministrazione Autonoma dei Monopoli di Stato, Italy), and WLA-SCS (World Lottery Association Security Control Standard), with many more unique to specific markets, like Nevada or tribal gaming in the US. These standards are set to ensure fairness, security, and compliance, making them integral to the game development process. However, navigating these gaming regulations can be time-consuming and can detract focus from creating game-changing content and high-performing products.
What does ensuring gaming regulatory compliance entail?
This article aims to guide game manufacturers and OEMs through the process of achieving gaming regulatory compliance and game certification – whatever the jurisdiction and market requirements – and maintaining it throughout the product lifecycle. Whether you are new to this process or seeking to maintain compliance for your games already in the field, we can provide the insights and guidance you need.
Understanding gaming regulatory compliance
GLI-11 for example, also known as the Gaming Devices Technical Standard, sets rigorous requirements for electronic gaming machines to ensure integrity and fairness in gaming operations. These standards cover security protocols, communication interfaces, and more.
Whilst adhering to gaming standards like GLI-11, GLI-33, UKGC or AAMS are often a regulatory obligation, adherence also demonstrates a company’s dedication to quality and reliability in the gaming industry.
