Accreditation
The Fortune Lounge casinos were among the first to be accredited by eCOGRA, an online-gambling industry watchdog, as well as one of the first to receive an operating licence from Microgaming Software Systems Ltd.
The servers are located in Malta, making Fortune Lounge subject to the Lotteries and Gaming Authority of Malta (LGA). The LGA issued Fortune Lounge with two licences, LGA/CL1/542/2008 and LGA/CL3/542/2008 in June 2010.
In June 2011, Online Poker Sites commissioned a gambling expert to investigate the credibility of the LGA. It was found that, “There is no doubt that the LGA have taken great care in ensuring their validity, and that of those operations they license. A good number of the 500+ licenses they issue are held by some of the biggest and most reputable operators in the e-gaming industry. This obviously reflects well on the Maltese government, the LGA and the operators themselves. A well regulated environment is important to all parties, and the peace of mind provided to customers of these licensed operations is invaluable.”
