Zona de Azar USA – Launch of the Social and Promotional Games Association for Responsible Gaming

USA.- 10 de Setembro de 2024 www.zonadeazar.com  Industry leaders have launched the Social and Promotional Games Association (SPGA) to advocate for responsible industry practices and consumer protection in popular online games.

This organization will focus on educating stakeholders and promoting the responsible operation of social and promotional games, also known as social sweepstakes games. The SPGA unites innovative companies with a unified approach to create safe, legal, and engaging gaming experiences for American adults.

The SPGA’s mission is to highlight the well-established legality and legitimacy of social sweepstakes, providing regulators, policymakers, and consumers with a comprehensive understanding of these offerings. As this form of entertainment continues to gain popularity, the organization and its members work to ensure millions of adults in the U.S. can enjoy these legal games safely and responsibly.

The SPGA has established internal committees to focus on crucial areas for industry growth and sustainability:

• Player Safeguards: Developing educational resources for adult consumers to participate safely and responsibly, addressing consumer complaints, and implementing advanced KYC (Know Your Customer) practices, age verification, geolocation, and gaming controls.
• Regulatory Compliance: Developing policy principles to align with regulatory frameworks and providing policymakers with a deep understanding of the compliant and consumer-focused operational model of online social sweepstakes, ensuring age and identity verification and fraud prevention.

Seth Schorr, CEO of FSG Digital Inc., said: “The formation of the SPGA is a crucial step toward establishing a clear and cohesive voice for the social sweepstakes industry.”
