Clearly Communicating with Affiliates
The eCommerce and Online Gaming Regulation and Assurance organization (eCOGRA) has fully announced the details of the investigation into Grand Prive and its past affiliate gaming interactions. Grand Prive generated a lot of negative media attention for itself and a frenzied storm of activity and negative comments last year when the online casino gambling group abruptly closed down its affiliate operations. The situation was not handled very well and there hasn’t been a lot of progress in the intervening year…until recently that is. Grand Prive formally announced that it has agreed to work with eCOGRA for the investigation into just what happened with the closure of the affiliate program.
eCOGRA is a incredibly well respected standards organization in the global market (the UK and EU most specifically though) that works to uphold a set of minimum standards and practices to which all of the major online casinos and gambling groups adhere. eCOGRA accredits sites that are operating to the organization’s standards and also works to moderate situations such as the Grand Prive debacle that shook the foundation of the global affiliate online casino gambling industry.
According to the new information released about the situation, eCOGRA will work with all of the affected affiliates to open a line of communication with Grand Prive. Affiliates will have the opportunity to ask all of their hard-hitting questions. And perhaps most importantly for the online casino gambling affiliates, they will get paid what they’re owed as these negotiations conclude – that is one of the more pressing parts of the entire situation and eCOGRA has assured affected affiliates that Grand Prive is prepared to pay out all of the disputed funds.
