The Canada based Chartwell Technology online gaming software has been recognized as being one of the best for long, but has just received eCOGRA's Certified Software Seal. This was announced through a press release by eCOGRA on May 19. eCOGRA is in the forefront of setting online gaming standards and evaluating the performances of software developers, gaming operators and affiliate programs. The standards to which the software suppliers are tested are known as eGAP Standards and focus on internal controls governing the development environment. The objective is to ensure that the software is implemented, maintained and operated in a safe and reliable manner.

Chartwell Technology Inc was founded in 1998 and operates from Calgary, London, Singapore and Malta. It is listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange. Chartwell Technology supplies software to online gaming operators and does not run any casinos itself. Chartwell Technology is licensed to offer its services in all major gaming jurisdictions. Not only is the software of the highest quality, but Chartwell Technology maintains its competitive advantage through continuous development and quality customer support. Chartwell Technology offers it Flash based software to some of the leading online casinos in the industry. These include Betfair, bwin Interactive, Victor Chandler, Gala Coral, Stan James, Casinos Austria International, and Gaming VC's Betaland.

Clinton Begin, Vice President of Software Development at Chartwell, explained the rationale behind seeking the eCOGRA certification. He said, "This was a good test of all our development, business and control systems, and I believe we benefited from the full professional assessment and recommendations made by the eCOGRA compliance auditor on his inspection visit to our Calgary facility."

The on-site audit and assessment was carried out by Compliance Manager Shaun McCallaghan on behalf of eCOGRA. He was all praise for the Chartwell Technology facilities. McCallaghan said the technical team from Chartwell Technology rendered complete cooperation and was ready with all the documents and systems required for compliance testing. He informed eCOGRA's independent directors responsible for awarding the seals that Chartwell Technology met all requirements over the testing period. Then eCOGRA chief executive Andrew Beveridge congratulated the personnel at Chartwell Technology. He said that the Certified Software Seal is given only after rigorous inspection and will be followed by sustained monitoring and annual reviews.

Several leading online gaming software providers have already received eCOGRA's coveted Certified Software Seal. They include Microgaming, bwin Games, 888.com, Boss Media and Partouche Technologies.
