Motion Sickness Mitigation: Settings That Actually Help
VR gambling platforms promise immersion, but for some players, prolonged sessions quickly turn into discomfort.

Customer Support Benchmarks: SLAs That Matter
Service level agreements (SLAs) decide whether support feels instant or invisible. In gambling, delays hit harder because issues often involve money, identity, or time-sensitive bets. Setting clear benchmarks—and measuring them—turns support from a cost center into a trust engine. Core SLAs: Response, Resolution, Availability Response time is the first impression and the easiest promise to… Continue reading Customer Support Benchmarks: SLAs That Matter
