Sumsub Launches First Full-Cycle Verification and Anti-fraud Solution for the Gaming Industry
Sumsub, a full-cycle verification platform, today announces the first integrated solution for user verification, anti-fraud and compliance in gaming enabling both platforms and operators to seamlessly cover the entire player lifecycle and maximize revenue while staying compliant with all regulations and guidelines.
With this launch, Sumsub is the first vendor to provide a holistic verification solution covering player onboarding, gaming-specific fraud prevention, and compliance. The solution’s four pillars to ensure full-cycle verification include:
-
Fast and secure Player Onboarding in full compliance with 220+ jurisdictions worldwide. It allows gaming platforms to onboard users in less than 30 seconds leveraging KYC/AML, age verification, and proof of address (PoA) checks. Additionally, Sumsub’s Non-Doc Verification provides swift onboarding in selected countries enabling users to only need to enter an ID card number, without scanning any documents.
-
Fraud Prevention to fight scams such as bonus abuse, affiliate fraud, and account takeover in real-time based on specific rules preventing fraudsters and all suspicious users from making deceitful action, thus reducing reputation risks and fraud-related losses.
-
Player Risk Profiling and Analytics module, aimed at catching at-risk behavior fast with dynamic scores that flag suspicious activities through “play and spend” behavioral patterns (like deposit frequency or average bet amount) and customizable rules.
-
Responsible Gaming (RG) Compliance, a first-in-the-market automated solution based on Sumsub’s Transaction Monitoring system and global compliance expertise, offers a set of rules to help gaming operations detect potential addictions and stay compliant with RG requirements.
“Gaming operators are overwhelmed with the need for separate solutions such as verification, bonus abuse prevention and player risk analysis. Often verification and anti-fraud vendors offer solutions initially developed for other industries like fintech. But they do not correspond to gaming companies’ specific needs as they are not tailored to the user profile which is completely different in gaming. So platforms are left with no choice but to develop these solutions in-house,” comments Jacob Sever, co-founder and Chief Innovation Officer at Sumsub. “Now Sumsub launches the first full-cycle verification platform for gaming, providing sets of rules that are fully customized to the industry, player geographies and user profiles in gaming. Player Risk Profiling and Analytics module is incorporated into the solution, further reinforcing our support for gaming operators’ and platforms’ needs in reducing risk. Previously, we launched our automated Responsible Gaming solution to help gaming companies stay fully compliant with RG regulations.”
Sumsub customers’ success stories prove the claimed efficiency of the company’s solutions for the gaming industry: Kaizen Gaming significantly boosted onboarding automation – from 15% to 70%, and increased its overall verification performance by 350%; Yolo Group grew users’ pass rates by 142%; and CopyBet decreased players’ time to value from 24 hours to less than 10 minutes.

LazyBar: The New White Label Casino Brand launched on the Extendy Platform
Say hello to LazyBar, Allset Partners’ brand-new online casino brand. Launched only 2 months ago and already available in five major gaming locations in Europe, namely Spain, Germany, Austria, Belgium and Poland, LazyBar is already off to a flying start.
“Our sights are set high and we have ambitious plans for the future. Our goal now, however, is to see LazyBar get to €1,000,000 in GGR by the end of 2024. We also plan to keep growing our list of European GEOs.” — Allset Partners
A peek at LazyBar: 9500+ popular games from over 70 game providers
Traffic to LazyBar comes mainly through media buying teams using Facebook, SEO, email campaigns and PPC.
The Allset Partners team have extensive experience in attracting iGaming traffic which is why creating their own brand seemed like the obvious and logical next step. As a white label online casino solution provider having launched several popular online casinos, Extendy was their primary choice. Launching an online casino brand includes managing all the extensive, major operational processes such as licensing, integrating game providers and payment solutions, as well as integrating all the necessary online casino infrastructures such as a CRM system, player support and VIP player support programs.
When it came to scaling LazyBar, the first step was to attract organic traffic and build a pool of players able to generate profit. Extendy’s CBDO, Ayvar Gabidullin explains that casinos created on the Extendy platform usually experience payouts within 5-6 months.
“When we launched our partner, Allset Partners, we initially determined a list of five countries to which all the traffic would go. However, seeing just how keen and active Allset were, we saw it best to roll out further GEOs. It was then that they really began to perform. The team is already showing results in Spain, Belgium, Switzerland, Germany and Poland.
Overall, launching LazyBar in such a short time is a huge achievement for both teams. I am confident that at this rate, Allset Partners will not only achieve their goals by the end of the year, but will surpass them by a significant margin.”
