ThePOGG Milestone: $1 million returned to players via casino complaints
ThePOGG.com is proud to announce a milestone for the site as we have returned over $1 million to players. ThePOGG prides itself on providing a quality mediation process for players that is free to use.
Stats at a Glance
Just how much has been returned to players this year? How much is the average complaint worth to the player? What’s the average daily return to the playing community? You’ll be surprised to learn how much ThePOGG gives back to players through their casino complaints service.

Stats all time
Income recovered for players: Over $1 million USD
Total number of complaints: 1006
Average value of a complaint: $996
Stats in the past 12 months
Total money recovered: $346835

“Over the last 6 years ThePOGG.com’s complaint service has, in my opinion, consistently offered the most thorough and balanced dispute mediation service within the remote gambling market. Our attention to the details of each case and active participation in every complaint discussion ensures that our service delivers the best possible outcome in the highest possible number of complaint situations. I have always felt that to deliver the service that our players deserve we need to engage with every complaint, get to know the details, so that where a player has been wronged we can take the necessary steps to rectify the situation or, where an operator are unwilling to treat the player fairly, assertively warn other players to avoid that operator. This has played out time and time again where we’ve managed to get players with complex cases paid.
It’s fantastic to see the service growing at a significant rate, having doubled the number of complaints dealt with year on year and the total money returned in far less than 18 months. We all want an industry with no complaints – and we could move closer to that if players just took a little time and looked for genuinely good operators before they signed up – but there will always be disagreements between players and operators and as long as that continues we intend to be here to help players get an impartial opinion on their case.” – said Duncan Garvie, Manager & ADR Official

Affiliate Announcements
Management Buyout Successfully Completed at ReferOn
ReferOn, an affiliate management platform for the iGaming sector, today revealed the successful conclusion of a management buyout. Former General Manager Alex Bukin purchases the platform, moving the company into its next stage of independent growth. Bukin will take on the position of Chief Executive Officer (CEO) to advance the company.
Assessing the platform’s path three years after its launch, Alex Bukin, CEO of ReferOn remarked: “This is a significant moment for ReferOn and marks the start of a new phase for the company.” The management buyout offers us the long-term perspective needed to consistently enhance the platform. We uphold our dedication to product development, enhancing our solutions for partners, and facilitating ReferOn’s ongoing expansion in significant markets.
The acquisition comes after a significant phase of advancement for the firm. Established on a base of operational effectiveness and scalable technology, ReferOn persists in expanding its footprint throughout the industry. In its initial year, the platform announced 35.7 million clicks, 2.4 million sign-ups, 18,000 affiliates, and 136,000 active trackers. The company’s extensive range of tools enhances flexibility for operators and affiliates, generating momentum that recently led to ReferOn being recognized as the “Best Affiliate Platform” in 2025 and 2026 by key industry players.
This change will not impact daily operations; assistance and current collaborations will continue as normal. As part of its continuous growth strategy, ReferOn is enhancing its product lineup with the introduction of new features, such as Refie, the integrated interface layer of the platform. The platform continually improves user experience and security via dynamic reporting, Company Grouping, Sub-Affiliation, Independent Deal Calculation (IDC), two-factor authentication (2FA), and thorough mobile optimization.
To maintain operational continuity, the current leadership team stays intact, guaranteeing stability as the company moves into its next phase of growth. With Bukin’s appointment as CEO, Vlad Bondarenko has moved from Head of Product to Chief Product Officer, and David Harris, who was previously Operations Lead, has become Chief Operations Officer. As the organization embarks on its next phase, it continues to prioritize equipping operators with top-tier tools and a dedication to providing the future of affiliate management.
