AML in the Gaming Sector

Ensure safe gaming for your organisation with SmartSearch’s all-in-one AML platform. Our solution consistently evolves to meet the developing regulations set by the Gambling Commission, so you can be 100% sure of your compliance.

Helping gaming organisations get compliance right

Over the past few years, a huge amount of gaming activity has moved online, and this, combined with advanced technology and a wide range of new digital payment methods have made it much easier for financial criminals to take advantage.

In-game currencies and microtransactions are one of the areas that act as the greatest risk; criminals are able to use the proceeds of their illegal activities to transact in-game purchases through fake accounts, often through multiple micro transactions that are hard to trace. Similarly, online betting sites are also increasingly being targeted by criminals looking to set up accounts either in fake names, or by stealing someone’s ID, and using these accounts to transact with dirty cash.

SmartSearch offers an all-in-one AML solution, that can identify, verify, screen and monitor customers all from one easy-to-use platform. What’s more, our solution is automatically updated to reflect any changes in AML regulation to ensure your firm is always meeting its legal requirements.

Money Laundering in Gaming: a few areas we can help you with

Weed out bad actors

It is vital that gaming firms can identify and verify individuals looking to set up online accounts to ensure they are who they say they are, and not bad actors committing ID theft, or transacting under fake profiles.

Smooth onboarding

By using SmartSearch’s all in one system - which can be integrated with exiting customer databases - you can run customer compliance as you onboard new clients for a smooth and easy process.

Automatic screening

When you use SmartSearch to run KYC on gaming clients, we will automatically screen for PEPs and sanctions, and run enhanced due diligence on any matches to ensure you are not working with any high-risk individuals.

Ongoing monitoring

Once you have onboarded a new customer and the check result is uploaded, it is then checked every night for any changes to ensure ongoing compliance.

Record keeping

Once a check is completed, the result is automatically recorded onto the system ensuring your firm is always audit ready - we are also able to batch upload existing client record and retrospectively verify and screen them.

Anti-Fraud solutions

As well as verification and screening solutions, we can also run a range of anti-fraud checks to give your firm enhanced protection.
