The EGR Awards are regarded as the gold standard in the online gaming industry, celebrating excellence in the North American online gaming industry. The judges of these premier gaming awards recognize the leading operators who have demonstrated outstanding performance over the past year.

For the Casino Operator of the Year award, RSI was judged on its growth and commercial success, player retention, and differentiation and originality of product. RSI stood out from the pack with its dramatic revenue increases, top game content and strong user experience, and its in-house developed online casino platform.

For the Customer Services Operator of the Year award, RSI was judged on its collaborative and communicative culture as well as continual training and development. RSI differentiated itself from the competition with its unwavering commitment to excellent customer service. The judges reviewed some of the below player quotes, which reinforced the quality of the company’s approach to making every player know they are valued:

Jan commented: “Awesome help and great explanation of details. Highly appreciated. Best customer service on any casino site by far!!”

Nathaniel commented: “Absolutely excellent service. Fast, understanding…I continue to find BetRivers as my favorite betting app, as despite being a “low roller” I feel like I am still a valued customer.”

BigDog commented: Thank you. I am so appreciative of all your help. I’ve never had such good customer service with a gambling site. You all are top notch!”

One EGR Awards judge expressly acknowledged that Rush Street Interactive “clearly puts customers at the core of what they do.”

For the Social Gaming Operator of the Year, RSI was judged on its ability to increase engagement and visitation to land-based casinos while generating growing revenues. RSI’s dramatic revenue increase, wide selection of game content, strong operations, and in-house developed social gaming software helped RSI rise above the others in consideration for the award.

“It is an honor for RSI to be recognized by so many of the gaming industry’s top leaders for our approach to developing innovative and intuitive betting experience and always placing trust at the heart of our relationship with our players,” said Richard Schwartz, President of Rush Street Interactive. “This recognition is a tribute to our talented team and their exceptional efforts to constantly improve the quality of our real money and social gaming products and customer service.
