PrizePicks' Commitment to Responsible Gaming Earns iCAP Accreditation
When it comes to daily fantasy sports in North America, PrizePicks stands out with its dedication to responsible gambling. Recently, the company snagged a top certification, demonstrating its unwavering commitment.
The prestigious recognition comes from the National Council on Problem Gambling (NCPG), the American nonprofit leader in the field. The company earned the coveted Internet Compliance Assessment Program (iCAP) accreditation.
iCAP accreditation signals rigorous evaluation
Winning the iCAP accreditation means PrizePicks has met the highest standards for player protection and responsible gambling set by the NCPG.
Securing this recognizable accreditation shows PrizePicks' hard work and dedication toward putting their customers first.
To earn the iCAP accreditation, PrizePicks underwent an extensive independent review, with every internal policy and practice put under the microscope. The scrutiny included the company's responsible gambling practices, regulatory compliance processes, and even its work culture and employee training.
The examination of essential practices, such as PrizePicks' RG tools, KYC protocols, and overall approach to responsible gaming, led to the NCPG determining that PrizePicks' efforts for consumer protection and responsible gambling align with the highest Internet Responsible Gaming standards.
The iCAP standards, developed with insights from gambling markets worldwide, are a symbol of a company's dedication to responsible gambling and player protection.
A web of supportive partnerships highlights PrizePicks' dedication
Partnerships with trusted companies like EPIC Global Solutions, IC360, and Kindbridge Behavioral Health attest to PrizePicks' commitment to responsible gambling.
These collaborations enable PrizePicks to continually improve its responsible gaming tools, ensuring the well-being and protection of its growing customer base.
Executives laud the certification's importance
Jaime D. Costello, the Director of Programs at NCPG, beamed about the latest iCAP accreditation. Costello highlighted PrizePicks as the first daily fantasy sports operator to earn the distinction.
Expressing his pride, Costello explained, "This achievement highlights their unwavering commitment to player protection and promoting positive play, setting a new benchmark for excellence in the industry."
Mike Ybarra, PrizePicks' CEO, shared the enthusiasm, stating, "This certification is a powerful recognition of the culture we've built at PrizePicks, and an incredible honor that underscores our unwavering commitment to putting player safety first."
Ybarra thanked the NCPG for their rigorous evaluation and, in turn, praised his team for their efforts in setting the bar within the industry for responsible gaming.
Previously, in January, the NCPG recognized International Game Technology (IGT) with its iCAP accreditation, following an equally arduous review process to ensure compliance with the NCPG's responsible gambling standards.
