The UK Gambling Commission release a number of regulation changes that are affecting the online bingo industry as well as casinos.Current regulations require that terms and conditions are included on promotional banners but now ‘Significant T&Cs’ must be included on all banners that link to a promotion or bonus. Everything from wagering requirements to the maximum cashout must be displayed on banners and landing pages.
We’ve all seen bonus wheel promos and now these will be explained like never before. Players will see the chances of winning each prize on the wheel as well as the associated terms and conditions.
These changes are designed to make players more aware and avoid hidden rules when claiming offers and should also help reduce ASA complaints related to hidden terms and conditions.
Players should soon expect to see fully disclosed terms on banners from UKGC licensed sites like Clover Bingo, Gala Bingo, Lollipop Bingo, Ladbrokes and Paddy Power to name a few. By Glo Wood
