    Default eCogra Seal and what useage is allowed in 2022

    Recently someone started a thread in the Freshman Forum about independent labels to use on their site.
    https://www.gpwa.org/forum/major-onl...ls-259815.html

    During discussions with someone recently about using a seal or label incorrectly I was trying to find the latest updated license or guiideline for using the eCogra Seal.

    Years ago the allow affiliate to get a review of their sites, and only use the eCogra Seal on pages that advertised eCogra sealed operators.

    Of course this required a signup, as well as adhering to their review rules etc., and the seals had to linked to a coded link so they could monitor compliance.

    Upon looking at their pages at
    https://ecogra.org/products-services/ecogra-egap-seal
    I no longer see a seal offered or recommended for regular affiliates.

    Does anyone know if they changed or moved that program elsewhere or discontinued it altogether?

    Is the use of the eCogra seal on pages still authorized, or is it only valid if following the original seal guidelines with the coded link and only for those "grandfathered" in under the ancient rules?

    Does anyone happen to have a link to their terms of service regarding the use of the seal? (for affiliates as operators and providers are obviously under different terms)

    Finding it difficult to believe that this organisation eCogra still exists.

    I haven't heard anything about them in the last 10 years.
    What on earth have they been doing? Certainly nothing relevant in this space.

    I tend to agree Gooner....but was still intrigued about their seal.

    Like many I signed up one site many moons ago and do not remember ever getting notified about changes etc, and I do recall them actually performing manual reviews of sites in those days.

    But that was also back when the only operators they worked with was MGS and before all the compliance stuff that surrounds those operators now.

    I was the one asking about other labels, however, this was for online casino brands (not for my aff site). I was wondering what other independent seal/label are there today?

    I believe they are still around but maybe their seal is not as meaningful as it used to be.
