Intercasino.com Receives Independent Online Gambling Certification

(PRWEB) April 5, 2006 -- Intercasino has become a household name in online gambling circles. The group has been in operation for ten years, and is one of the most respected companies in the online gambling and entertainment industry. With over 160 games, Intercasino offers choice like very few other can. With many unique innovations such as their licensed Marvel Comic hero slots, Intercasino is at the forefront of gaming technology.

Popular online gambling portal, Online Gambling Insider, certifies online casinos, sportsbooks and poker rooms. Each certified site has to pass a strict set of criteria in order to make the grade. The qualification criteria used includes financial backing, customer support, fairness (including player terms and conditions), games offered, payment processing and licensing. Most importantly, the Online Gambling Insider team tests each casino by becoming real players and experiencing the gambling operator's services like any other player would.

"Certifying Intercasino was a pretty easy process." said Ryan D, editor of Online Gambling Insider. "Let's face it, they have been in this game for ten years now. If you browse around the popular message boards and watchdog sites, you will find little, if any, complaints about Intercasino.com".

But regardless of the images of this casino, Ryan is adamant that each certified casino is put through the mill. "We know that Intercasino is a high quality operation, but we diligently test each casino, sportsbook and poker room we list." To do so, Ryan personally plays at each tested for at least a two month period. "We sign up at each casino as part of the certification process, and try to experience their offering from end to end. This involves us depositing somewhere between $200 and $500, claiming the bonus, and playing at least three different games until the wager through requirement is met" said Ryan.

"We then go on to test the customer service process, which involves every channel of interaction including phone, E-mail and live chat. We will ask customer service representatives a variety of questions, and one or two will be a little tricky" Ryan continues. "I can honestly say that the experience at Intercasino has been an absolute pleasure, right down to my last interaction which was a cash in request. I was promised my money within 48 hours, but I had it the next day".

Intercasino has many distinguishing features, such as the fact that they pay their own progressive jackpots in full. "This is a real differentiator. Almost all other casino are reliant on the software provider to settle the jackpot, which inevitably results in delays. Intercasino pays it themselves, and in full" Ryan adds.

Intercasino has received the Online Gambling Insider deposit guarantee, which now means that players are protected up to a maximum of $1,000 in deposits, should they ever have a problem. "We are confident that we won't ever have to intervene and refund a player, but it is nice for people to know that there is an independent safety net" Ryan concludes.
