Online Casino Safety: How We Ensure Safe Gaming

Gambling can be lots of fun, but no doubt there are many who are slightly concerned about how safe it is to play online – and how reliable and trustworthy a casino is. Unfortunately, the internet can harbour many scam artists – and we all need to be careful.

The good news is that if you pick the right site – like Rizk.NZ, you’re all good. In this article, we will look at how we – and other good casinos – make sure that playing on the site is safe and secure and how you can tell whether or not it is a reputable and trustworthy casino.

A Proper Licence Means a Reliable Casino

In most countries, the online gambling industry is very highly regulated – with authorities monitoring their moves closely. Any false move and the licence will be revoked. So, the best way to make sure that you are playing at a safe casino is by checking its licence. The most well-recognised licences to look for are those such as the Malta Gaming Authority (MGA) and the UK Gambling Commission.

Here at Rizk.NZ, we are licensed by both of these regulatory bodies, so you can rest assured that we are completely safe and trustworthy. These bodies regularly look at different areas of the casino’s operations, such as the fairness of the games, responsible gambling, fair and regulatory marketing, how your personal data is held and processed and they ensure that all of your financial transactions are fully protected.

Obtaining a licence is not easy and it takes a lot of time and effort. Every aspect of the casino is put under the microscope – and they are constantly monitoring everything that happens. One slip and there can be serious repercussions.

So, if you ever feel that we, or any other licensed casino, have dealt with you unfairly, then you can inform the licensing body which will intercede to ensure that the issue is dealt with properly.

Entering Your Personal Information Online

You may be concerned about entering your personal details into an online casino – and offering copies of documents such as bank statements, proof of address and ID. However, this is purely to verify your age, identity and residence to make sure you are playing at the casino legally.

We are required to make sure that any payment methods are in your name and that the source of funds can be verified. This is to prevent fraud and money laundering. Any data you enter will be stored in accordance with the local online casino safety regulations so you can feel assured that no third party can get hold of it. If you have any questions, you can contact customer care who will assist you.

Online Security Measures

As an award-winning casino, we pride ourselves on ensuring that the casino website is as safe as it is possible to be. We use the highest SSL-encryption technology to ensure that the connection between the web server and your browser is fully encrypted, ensuring complete online casino safety. You can see whether a site is SSL encrypted by looking for a small padlock image next to the address bar.

In addition, we will only use the safest payment methods, such as online banking payments, eWallets and reputable debit and credit cards. When making any financial transaction at Rizk.NZ through these methods, your online casino safety is guaranteed.

Another way you can see how safe and reliable a casino is is by the game providers they are partnered with. Here at Rizk.NZ, we work with the biggest names in the industry such as NetEnt, Microgaming, Pragmatic Play, Play ‘N Go, Evolution Gaming and more – who only work with the best online casinos.

Tested and Transparent Random Number Generators

Games at our online casino can never be rigged because every single outcome of every single video casino game is determined by the Random Number Generator. This ensures that every single round is random and independent of the previous result – and no one can tamper with or manipulate the result.

These RNGs are regularly checked by independent third parties to make sure that they are working properly and that there is no way that we, the casino, or the game provider can have any influence over the outcome of the game. Here at Rizk.NZ, our site is tested and certified by eCOGRA to ensure your online casino safety and fairness.

Responsible Gaming

Responsible Gambling is as important to us as online casino safety- as it should be to any good online casino site. Any casino with a licence will have to adhere to the principles of responsible gambling – and most licensors require you to adhere to the strictest of rules.

As such, we offer a variety of different responsible gaming tools for our players, such as betting limits, loss limits, deposit limits and time limits. We would always recommend you use these right from the start of your casino journey so that you can set a budget and stick to it the moment you begin playing with real money.

If there is an issue, you can always self-exclude for a set period of time, simply by contacting our support team. We also provide you with information so that you can also contact professional help if any extra assistance is needed.

Playing it Safe: Conclusion

We understand that the security of your online casino account will be a concern – and rightly so. This is a good thing – as you should always make sure you check out any online casino site thoroughly before even thinking about entering personal information or financial data. The great news is that this is very easy to do – as long as you know what you are looking for.

Simply make sure that the gambling site is operating under a recognised licence and you will know that they are being held to account – and are taking their safety, security and trustworthiness seriously. If you do have any queries, then our award-winning customer care team is available around the clock to assist whenever you need it

So, what are you waiting for? Check out the best casino games from the best providers safe in the knowledge that you are being looked after from beginning to end.
