Cryptologic is a company that provides online casino software that is downloadable. They have been in existence since 1995 and gave birth to one of the first online casinos by the name of Intercasino.

The online casino industry has exploded in the past 10 years with millions upon millions of users turning to the internet to scratch their gambling itch without leaving the comforts of their own home.

To many people online gambling is done mostly for entertainment purposes with hopes of winning a big jackpot at the back of their mind. However, to some casino gambling can be an addiction that if left unchecked could cause a person to wager their life savings and in the process lose the shirt on their back. To make matters worse families have been destroyed because of the addiction of gambling.

Because of the negative side of online gambling in the United States there are forces at work to have the entire online gambling industry banned. There argument is that internet gambling is delivering destruction into the homes of millions of Americans. As a result many attempts were made over the years by Republican senators to have a bill passed to have the online gambling industry outlawed. To make a long story short they recently succeeded in their attempts by attaching the "The Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act 2006" to the back of another bill called "Safe Port Act". This bill literally flipped the online casino industry on its back. Many large companies went out of business over night.

Cryptologic and its subsidiaries however were not affected by this change in a major way. Although the United States represented a good chunk of their business most of their affairs were conducted over seas in such markets as England, Germany, France and Spain.

Intercasino who uses Cryptologic software was voted best online casino 5 years in a row, no longer accepts wages coming from the United States. However, casino enthusiasts located in other parts of the world can still play their favorite casino games such as online blackjack, craps and internet roulette at the websites of Intercasinos counterparts.

Intercasino is a leader in the online gaming industry because they keep the needs of their players at the forefront. They are not solely out to make as much money as possible from each player. They have systems in place to determine if a particular player can afford to be wagering money. If it is determined a player is not in a financial position to be wagering large amounts of money then Intercasino reserves the right to prevent that person from betting any further.

Now how many businesses do you know of that will take such a responsibility?
