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
Total number of complaints: 395
Complaints resolved: 124
Complaints ruled in favour of the operator: 105
Complaints ruled in favour of the player: 99
“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

Meet MegaList: The Rising Force in iGaming Affiliation

There are affiliate networks, and then there’s MegaList – a performance-first, hype-last kind of operation built for casino and sportsbook brands that prefer results over buzzwords.
In an industry that sometimes feels like it’s powered by vague metrics and recycled content, MegaList steps in as the “Mega Map” – a practical, data-driven network guiding both players and operators to higher ground. Less “look at our reach,” more “here’s your conversion rate.”
So no, this isn’t just another logo-stamped brand promising traffic and delivering bounce rates. This is a carefully engineered affiliate engine built on smart SEO, qualified leads, and just enough caffeine-fueled obsession with results to make even the most skeptical operators pay attention.
The iGaming Affiliate World: Why It (Still) Matters
Let’s be honest – the affiliate space in iGaming has had its fair share of bad actors and empty promises. But when done right, affiliate marketing is still one of the most effective and efficient ways to connect licensed operators with the right players.
Players want fewer popups, more clarity. Operators want actual ROI, not vague impressions.
Enter: the data-driven affiliate network.
It’s simple:
- Informed players make better choices.
- Strategic affiliates deliver better traffic.
- Everyone wins. Except, of course, the shady operators who preferred it the other way.
Meet the MegaList Brands
These aren’t vanity microsites. Each MegaList brand has a specific mission, actual humans behind the content, and a reputation for, well… telling it like it is.
MegaCasinoList
Let’s face it – players don’t need another affiliate promising “top 10 casinos” based on whatever ad paid the most. They need honest, transparent, expert-backed reviews.
That’s where MegaCasinoList comes in – a platform that filters out the noise and delivers legit info on licensed casinos, security, fairness, and gameplay. Slots? Live dealer games? Payout speed? Yep, it’s all in there, and it’s all vetted.
They work with reliable operators only, because – and here’s a crazy idea – not every shiny site deserves your deposit.
MegaTipsList
If you like sports predictions that read like a 20-page legal document, you’re in the wrong place.
MegaTipsList is built for bettors who want real insights, fast reads, accurate tips, and actual value. It delivers predictions, sports news, and timely promotions – minus the fluff and with none of that “win guaranteed” nonsense.
Designed for bettors who like to stay informed without needing a PhD to understand the odds.
MegaBetList
For the practical bettor who just wants the facts: which sites are legit, which ones pay fast, and what to expect before placing your first wager.
MegaBetList reviews betting platforms with a clear, no-nonsense voice. It’s not trying to dazzle; it’s trying to help people bet smarter – and it’s doing a pretty solid job of it.
From licensing to promotions to usability, everything is covered – and everything is filtered through what actually matters to sports fans.
Why This All Matters (And Why It’s Working)
The iGaming world doesn’t need more noise. It needs better filters, smarter partners, and affiliates that actually care whether the traffic leads somewhere useful.
That’s where MegaList comes in – not to impress with buzzwords, but to perform, to scale, and to make sure both operators and players are on the same page for once.
And if we may drop in a little vision while we’re at it:
“At MegaList, we believe informed players and strategic operators shape a stronger, smarter iGaming industry.”
For once, a statement that isn’t just inspirational filler.
So the next time someone pitches you an affiliate network, ask one thing: “Do they have a plan, or just a landing page?”
MegaList has both, and a track record to prove it.
