Know who is playing. Know when the risk changes.

For operators in the iGaming sector, sanctions and adverse-media checks are carried out at the time of registration, and the same profile continues to be monitored each time the player makes a deposit, wins, or returns.

Know who is playing. Know when the risk changes.
What you switch on

What an operator switches on first

Player identity and their level of risk begin at the time of signing up, but risk doesn't end there; it's possible for a player to pass all the checks carried out during onboarding and yet still become a different kind of risk at a later stage in their lifecycle.

Why this matters here

The regulator asks about one player, not one control.

A large win can trigger a source-of-funds check. A run of heavy losses can trigger an affordability review. Months of identical betting patterns can point to bonus abuse. The regulator reads all three as signals about the same player.

Seconds

to first stake

Checks finish before the first stake, so no player bets before they are screened.

One profile

every signal

The same player record shows flags for self-exclusion, affordability, sanctions, and fraud patterns, with one flag visible alongside the others rather than recorded as a separate alert elsewhere.

Source of funds

flagged as the deposit lands

A deposit above your threshold raises a source-of-funds request immediately, not after the money has moved.

Journey · Two sides

A player through your funnel

Scroll to advance
  1. Step 01 Signup, in seconds

    Identity, sanctions, PEP status and adverse media are all checked as part of the process for opening the account, before any money can be transferred.

  2. Step 02 Each session contributes to the single profile

    The same player record is used to keep track of deposits, wins and losses rather than carrying out a new check each time they visit.

  3. Step 03 A threshold triggers a question

    A payout or a loss exceeding your limit triggers a source-of-funds check before the funds are transferred, not after a regulator asks why they didn't.

  4. Step 04 Rescreened and watched for pattern

    A regular rescreening picks up a new designation, and behavior monitoring detects the same bet being placed repeatedly in the same manner on an account that doesn't appear risky on paper.

What you answer to

Your licence covers more than AML

In the iGaming industry, the license comes with obligations which go beyond those related to money laundering, and both of these aspects are examined by the same authority.

Case study · iGaming

An operator put four checks on one player record

Sanctions, self-exclusion, affordability and source of funds each had a system and none had a shared view. Consolidating onto one record turned a licence review from an archaeology exercise into an export.

FAQ

Before you ask us

Can players be screened before the first deposit?

Yes. Identity, list and register checks return in under 200 ms inside the signup flow, so the player is screened before the first deposit. Onboarding stays fast enough not to lose the registration and thorough enough that the regulator never asks why it was fast.

What is checked at registration?

Identity, age, sanctions, PEP status and adverse media, before any money moves. Age and identity checks protect the licence, and list and media checks protect the AML programme. Both results sit on the same player record from the first session.

How do you catch a self-excluded player who registers again?

Registers are checked at signup and again when a player returns, and the result is recorded on the player file. Because the applicant is matched against existing records first, a self-excluded player who registers under a variant of their name is linked to the existing profile, not treated as a new customer.

How are affordability signals handled?

Deposit velocity and behaviour signals are scored on the same record as list exposure, so one review covers both. Gambling regulators increasingly expect financial risk checks to follow deposit levels rather than rely on a single question at signup. When the signals rise, the player file already shows what was known and what was asked.

When does a source-of-funds check trigger?

When a payout or a loss exceeds the threshold you set, before the funds are transferred. The check runs against the same player record while the money is moving, not after a regulator asks why it wasn't. The result and the documents collected stay on the player file for the next review.

A player was clean at signup. Are they rescreened?

Yes. Active players are rescreened every fifteen minutes, so a new sanctions designation or PEP appointment reaches the file between sessions. A player who was clean at registration can become a different risk later in the lifecycle, and the licence expects you to notice.

Can bonus abuse and repeated betting patterns be detected?

Yes. Behavior monitoring flags the same bet placed repeatedly on an account that looks low risk on paper. Patterns like this can point to bonus abuse, collusion between accounts or low-risk wagering used to move funds, and they appear on the same player record as the list checks.

Where are safer gambling interventions recorded?

On the same player record as sanctions, affordability and fraud flags. A deposit limit, a cooling-off period or a safer gambling interaction sits next to the AML history, so a reviewer sees the whole player rather than one control at a time.

What does the regulator receive in a license review?

One player history covering every licence condition, exported for the period the regulator names. AML, source-of-funds and social responsibility evidence come from the same file, because the gambling regulator examines all of them with the same authority.

We are a white-label operator. What passes through from our platform supplier?

License conditions set by your platform or software supplier apply to you as well, and they arrive at integration. The controls you run, and the evidence they produce, sit on your own player records, so you can show both the supplier and the regulator what was checked and when.
