Last week saw the much-anticipated launch of new Merchant Category Codes (MCC) for online poker transactions in the United States. MCCs have long been thought to be the answer to the issues that arise when players use credit cards to make payments at online casinos, but Matthew Katz, CEO of player verification software company CAMS, has warned the iGaming industry that MCCs are not the “silver bullet” it has been looking for. What are MCCs? An MCC is a four-digit number assigned to a business by credit card companies like Visa and MasterCard when the business first starts accepting one of these cards as a form of payment. The MCC is used as a quick way for financial institutions to classify the business type. Credit Card Companies versus Online Gambling Sites As of now, credit card acceptance rates have been one of the biggest challenges facing the online poker industry since it launched in 2013 in the U.S. Many credit card companies have refused to process transactions, probably because memories of the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act (UIEGA) of 2006. The UIEGA prohibited all US financial institutions from processing online gambling transactions; and even though individual states have now been allowed to legalize online gambling, many of these financial institutions are still wary. How Will MCCs Help? The idea behind the MCCs is that new codes will replace the umbrella 7995 MCC for online gambling that automatically generated a rejection from credit card companies. Currently, only 73 percent of Visa and 44 percent of Mastercard transactions on New Jersey’s online gambling sites actually go through. It is hoped that MCCs will increase those numbers. Unfortunately, as Katz pointed out, there is little incentive for banks to change their systems to incorporate the new MCCs. The United States online gambling industry is very, very small, which means that re-configuring large financial systems seems like a waste of time. “The banks are not set up to operate on a state-by-state basis, and the potential liability it creates for them is not much greater than the revenue,” Katz said. “It’s not a priority.”

William Hill's In-play customers in Australia will be able to bypass country restrictions via a new ‘Click to Call’ feature. The Mic Compromise This innovation will allow customers to connect to William Hill's live betting markets through their computer microphones. Current laws prohibit in-play live sports offerings to consumers; however, live sport wagers are still permissible by phone, and William Hill is offering a ‘Click to Call’ feature as a way to stay compliant without having in-play offerings or revenues disrupted. A live betting selection tab will provide the means for William Hill customers in Australia to continue to pre-select for in-play betting markets. To confirm selections, customers will connect with the operator’s ‘live team’, where the customer will be prompted to confirm or cancel their in-play selections. Click to Call has already been released on the William Hill and Tom Waterhouse web portals. It is available for activation through Chrome, FireFox, Internet Explorer and Safari browsers, with plans in place for further roll-out of the device to mobile android and IOS devices. The Tools Any Australian player with Windows/MacOs Chrome, Windows/MacOS Firefox 22+, Windows Internet Explorer 10+, Android/Chrome, Samsung Galaxy S3 Phone/Chrome or MacOs Safari will be able to place a rapid bet in-play. This takes place in easy step, where the player makes a selection from a wide range of markets William Hill offers, which is then added to the betting slip. Once the stake is chosen in this way, then the customer merely clicks the ‘Call to Place Live Bet’ button, whereupon they are presented with the choice of canceling the bet, confirming the bet, or replaying the bet. The Click to Call voice component is then completed through the player's computer microphone, and they are participating in in-play betting while William Hill remains compliant—for now, at least.
In its fourth year, the Gaming in Holland Conference will cover important topics regarding the future landscape of the iGaming industry in the country. A recent announcement increased the anticipation even further as the major operators from the State lottery will send representatives in order to debate the pending regulatory changes across the conference in June. Full 2 Day Conference On June 22nd and 23rd, over a thousand people are expected to attend the massive conference held in Amsterdam and the main subject of discussion will be regarding the changes which will come into effect from 2017. Until April 2012, the Netherlands Gaming Control Board was in charge of the lotteries market, but this changed when the Dutch Gaming Authority assumed responsibility and started the process for a modernization of the regulations. The outline of the reform will be released in June and this will of course provide even more fuel for the debate scheduled to take place during the Gaming in Holland conference. Furthermore, the event will provide attendants the chance to exchange information, make new contacts and network with business representatives from one of the most important European gaming markets. Getting Ready for the Future After the Lottery Stream will be covered on the first day, along with the impact of the new proposed legislation coming in 2017, there will be a Demo Day on the second day of the conference where suppliers from the iGaming and Lottery sectors will have the chance to get up on stage for informative sessions and also Q&A segments from the attendees. Holland has become a very fast growing market for online gaming, especially lotteries and casino games, even with its restrictive regulations. The modernization will change a lot of factors in the industry and the Gaming in Holland conference this June is where the story will most likely come together.

Monopoly Big Event Slot Gamers will be able to experience Monopoly Big Event across desktop and mobile devices, helping to raise the potential audience for the slot.

Players can win along 20 paylines covering the 15 symbols of the slot. Complementing that traditional slot design are the special features, which are a vital draw for many gamers.

LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers have faced a myriad of challenges all season long. They are about to face their biggest one of the post season tonight, as they face off against the Chicago Bulls. The Cavs have home court advantage tonight, which should be a sigh of relief, as they are excellent at Quicken Loans Arena but they cannot afford to take the Bulls for granted, especially without two of their starters. Cavs down Two Starters The Cavs will be without Kevin Love and J.R. Smith. Love is out needing to undergo shoulder surgery and will be out the rest of the post season, and Smith is out on suspension for the first two games of this series. That means that that LeBron will need to be at his best to beat the Bulls, which is easier said than done. Cleveland went 3-1 against Chicago in the regular season, but this is the playoffs and with a spot in the Eastern Conference Finals on the line, both teams will be leaving everything they have on the hard wood. The Bulls are one of the best defensive-minded teams in the league and they will be looking to limit the scoring chances of the Cavs big men. The will be looking to create turnovers and make the Cavs think twice on every play. The Bulls have never been able to beat LeBron in the playoffs, suffering losses in the 2010, 2011 and 2013 post season. The Bulls look like a new team and could easily be the team to oust the Cavs this year. NBA Online Gambling The Cavs are the favorites to get into the 2015 NBA Finals from the Eastern Conference, which is the reason that they are favorites to win tonight’s game. Bet365 Sports has the Cavs at 1.50 to beat the Bulls, while Chicago is not far behind at 2.70. There are a number of pre-game props to choose from including the ever-popular Point Spread, Game Totals and Race to 20 Points. These bets all represent great chances to make lucrative cash for punters willing to make the stakes.
Last week saw Japanese lawmakers submitting to parliament a bill to legalize casinos and gambling in the country for debate, according to a Reuters report. The members who are responsible for the bill belong to the ruling Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) who have drafted the bill alongside members of the Japan Innovation Party and the Party for Future Generations. Hopes are that the bill will be discussed in parliament before August when the current parliamentary session ends. $40 Billion in Yearly Revenues It is no secret that a possible Japanese casino market could quickly make Japan one of the biggest gambling countries, second only to Macau and the United States. These predictions spring from a study introduced by brokerage firm CLSA which estimated that a regulated gambling market generate $40 billion in yearly revenues, if the market is taken on seriously by big operators. The passing of a casino bill in the country has received the support of LDP Prime Minister Shinzo Abe whose party members are responsible for submitting the bill, and it has been reported that members of the Buddhist Komeito party who opposed such a bill in the past, have decided to allow the bill's submission or at least not to actively go up against it. Giant Operators Interested Japan is like a huge goldmine that just needs its barred entrances to become open for the world. MGM Resorts International president Bill Hornbuckle said earlier this year that the company is ready to invest in Osaka to make for a unique Japanese attraction, and Las Vegas Sands' Sheldon Adelson said he'd spend "whatever it takes" to get into the market. It'll be interesting to see how the online gambling industry manages Japanese regulation if and when that happens. Help from Friends If Japan does go with the bill, it's sure to have all the help it needs with the giant operators vying to open up shop in the country. Japan will also receive help from the American Gaming Association (AGA), after its president and CEO Geoff Freeman said that the association will be keen to support the country in its process of legislation.
