Security while gambling Online gambling with SuisseID

Security while gambling
Online gambling with SuisseID
Gambling is as old as the human race, has its own culture
and is at home everywhere. To ensure the road to good
fortune is also safe in the virtual world the Swisslos Interkantonale Landeslotterie (intercantonal national lottery)
has taken precautions – with SuisseID.
Brave new world of gambling
People have been having the same dream of good luck when
gambling for thousands of years, but the move from the analogue
to digital world has brought new challenges with it. Gambling
on the web requires gamblers to be at least 18 years old and resident in Switzerland.
Guaranteed security when gambling online
The market for online games is growing. The Interkantonale
Landeslotterie is using SuisseID to deal with the challenges of digital gambling. The standardised security solution ensures the
unique identification and authentication of the players, speeds up
the login process and guarantees that they are also safe online.
It therefore fulfils the Swisslos priorities – and it can also be integrated easily in its IT landscape.
Customer service has priority
As gamblers like to «keep their cards close to their chest»,
the high security of SuisseID is also a convincing factor when
purchasing online games. It simplifies the registration of
the players and provides them with quick, convenient access
to the online platform. SuisseID is a registered trademark of the State Secretariat
for Economic Affairs SECO.
