Mansion Group Win At The IGA 2018 For ‘Best Online Casino’

The 11th International Gaming Awards (IGA) was held earlier this month at Grosvenor House, London. This popular global gaming awards ceremony is often referred to as the Oscars as it recognizes the best gaming operators in both land-based and online casino markets.

The winner's list for the awards ceremony is an international one, with operators from all over the world being considered for the numerous awards on offer. The winner's list includes some very recognizable brand names such as William Hill, Microgaming and Play'n GO.

Some of winners have been industry leaders for years and continue to set new trends in the global gaming industry.

The ‘Online Casino Operator of the Year‘award has always been one of the most prestigious awards at the IGA. Every year, a panel of industry experts look at some of the year's best performers and top brands in the industry and then make a shortlist. They then vote on who they think deserves that honor and they decided to give the award to the Mansion Group.

The competition was fierce, with previous winners LeoVegas and Mr. Green in the running. Mansion became a strong contender for the award because of the successful rebranding of its global flagship brand Casino.com. Besides the rebranding campaign, there was also the impressive TV advertising campaign in the UK, which had a fleet of iconic London black cabs boasting the brand. It was not all cosmetic either. Major improvements were implemented across all the brands under the Mansion Group. Mansion Group also launched a new project called MansionBet, which is a new sports betting brand that is taking the market by storm.
