It is one of the Internet's oldest casinos,[1] and in 2013 it became the first exclusively online casino to be licensed in the United States.[2] HistoryCasino-on-Net was established by brothers Aaron and Avi Shaked along with partners Ron and Shay Ben-Yitzhaq, also two brothers, in 1997. Aaron Shaked claims to have come up with the idea of the online casino while attending a dentistry conference in Monte Carlo.[3][4] In 1994 the Free Trade & Processing Zone Act was passed in Antigua and Barbuda, opening the way for the development of legal online casinos.[5] Casino-on-Net was re-branded as 888casino in 2010 to unify the look and feel with other 888 brands.[6] By 2015 the site was licensed and operating in Gibraltar, New Jersey, Denmark, Spain and a number of other countries and territories.[7][8]888casino was title sponsor of the 2013 World Seniors Championship in Snooker.[9] In 2015, Gaming Intelligence magazine described 888casino as "the only truly pan-European casino."[10] In 2017, 888casino signed a deal to include slot games from Berlin-based Merkur Interactive Services GmbH, part of the Gauselmann Group.[11] 888casino has been awarded eCOGRA's Safe and Fair assurance seal.[12] United StatesAs a result of an act of the United States Congress in October 2006,[13] online gaming firms were forced to their presence in the US market, resulting in a mass exit from the US market for these sites. In March 2013, the Nevada Gaming Commission granted 888casino a license as an Interactive Gaming Service Provider, making it the first company providing exclusively online gambling to be licensed by any US jurisdiction.[2] In January 2011, the New Jersey Legislature passed a bill sponsored by Raymond Lesniak to allow online gambling by New Jersey residents over the age of 21.[14] In August 2013, 888casino signed an agreement with Caesars Entertainment Corporation[15] through the group’s All American Poker Network (AAPN) joint venture with Avenue Capital, enabling 888casino to offer own-branded products in New Jersey.[16] 888casino publishes an independently audited monthly Casino Payout Percentage and includes the Payout Percentage of each game, as well as the total average Payout Percentage of 888casino.[17] 888casino's payout rate is 95.1%.[1] Awards
