AAMS is a well-known acronym in both online and offline gaming. It is an important agency of the Ministry of Economy and Finance that regulates the tobacco industry and manages public gaming. Precisely with regard to the latter, it has gained significant importance in terms of player safety. Today, its name has changed to "ADM," the Customs and Monopolies Agency, while retaining its previous functions. All gambling platforms, from poker to online casinos, require a specific AAMS/ADM license to operate legally, which is issued only if the regulations are strictly adhered to.
The remarkable growth in recent years of the gaming sector, supported by the development of new technologies, has made it essential to regulate the entire sector. In this regard, we must highlight that Italy is at the forefront, taken as a model in Europe, having been among the first countries to introduce legal poker on the Internet and subsequently to "open" to authorized online casinos.
Regulating the sector was therefore a logical consequence, so that everything can be carried out in maximum safety, countering scams and frauds that increasingly occur on the web.
Monopolies have the specific task of monitoring the gambling sector.

Moreover, in Italy the measures to combat illegal gambling are becoming more and more sophisticated, not only online but also by carrying out blanket checks on ctd and totems.
AAMS is an organization that also has the task of promoting responsible gaming, ensuring that a whole series of behavioral measures are implemented, with the intent of combating the risks associated with pathological gambling. For these reasons, a series of common rules have been created for all operators, monitoring their activity not only when the license is issued but also subsequently with constant checks. A regulation that pays attention to customer safety, transparency of the offer and the protection of minors.
Each legal gaming portal is identifiable by a concession number present on all pages, usually positioned next to the AAMS (ADM) logo. An organization that also uses an advanced computerized system through which it manages the gaming market in Italy, from land-based halls to online casinos. From what we have seen so far, this is why it is best to play exclusively on legal sites, the only ones synonymous with seriousness and reliability.
