The European Gaming and Betting Association (EGBA) was launched in Brussels in March 2007. EGBA’s mission is to promote fair competition for European online gaming operators and to give European consumers the choice to access all European licensed and regulated controlled online gaming services that are provided lawfully in their country of origin. EGBA has established high standards regarding the fight against Anti-Money Laundering. Compliance with these standards are verified and certified annually by an external and specialized auditing party.
