Customer Support Agent (iGaming)
The player's first point of contact: live chat, email, sorting out deposit, bonus and verification issues — usually in the language of a specific market.
Who is this and what does he do?
Casino support is not a generic call centre: the agent has to understand the bonus terms, see why a payment failed, explain the status of a verification and do all of it without breaching responsible gambling requirements. That is why language pays here: a native German, Japanese, Finnish or Brazilian Portuguese speaker earns substantially more than an English-speaking agent. For most people, this is the most realistic way into the industry.
