Kahnawake is an Indian reserve in Quebec Canada and part of the Mohawk Nation. It was one of the first territories to recognise the potential of gaming licensing, and the importance of protecting players from unscrupulous operations. The Kahnawake Gaming Commission is now one of the most respected gaming licensing jurisdictions since its inception in 1996. The stringent licensing regulations and player dispute resolution service ensure that casinos licensed in this territory are some of the most respectable online.
There are four types of gaming licensed issued by Kahnawake depending on the activities of the gaming company. The types of license issued are Interactive Gaming License, Client Provider Authorisation, Secondary Client Provider Authorisation and Key Person Licenses. The application fee for each type of license is $25,000 with an additional $5,000 payable for key persons.
The Kahnawake Gaming Commissions Regulations Concerning Interactive Gaming outlines the commission’s requirements for the protection of players at Kahnawake licensing gaming facilities. Amongst the regulations to which licensees much adhere are adequate precautions for ensuring that no minors are able to access the gaming site and that there is protection for vulnerable people and problem gamblers.
Kahnawake require licensees to provide players with a method of self-exclusion or play limitation. This means the implementation of maximum daily deposits and the ability to set the limit to zero. In addition where problem play or vulnerable people are concerned, a family member may apply to the Commission to requests that no further wagers are accepted by that person.
Kahnawake also require that gaming is conducted in a fair and responsible manner that winners are paid promptly and that player confidentiality is of prime important. The Commission also employ a full time disputes manager to handle player disputes promptly and fairly. To access the Kahnawake Player Disputes Service click here
