Snakes and Ladders: Trust and motivation in online gaming
Abstract: The building blocks of online trust are relatively well understood, especially with regard to eCommerce. Brand values, high street retail presence and customer-friendly policies all play a part in establishing trust in our online online gaming products. However, with online casino gaming, where the outcomes of games such as roulette or slots are governed by chance players are rightly sensitive to any real (or imagined!) house advantage. Establishing trust is only part of the solution. Trust must be nurtured in order to develop long and lasting relationships. The aim of this talk is to highlight findings with regard to what things engender feelings of trust and motivation in relation to online gaming.
