Help Prevent Gaming and Gambling Fraud

The global gambling industry is growing and it is expected to reach $674.7 billion in 2025. In a competitive market where customers have an increasingly varied array of options, gaming and gambling operators need to streamline their onboarding processes to improve customer experience and customer acquisition, and at the same time tackle pervasive fraud attacks at account opening.

Bonus abuse, also known as promotional abuse, where fraudsters attempt to exploit offers multiple times, persistently erodes revenue potential. Promotional schemes offering bonuses, risk-free bets or free tokens are designed to acquire customers but are also targeted by fraudsters. Fraudsters aim to take advantage of these promotions by creating multiple accounts with fake or stolen identities to claim a bonus offer.

Some operators struggle to keep out players who violate company policies. These players create multiple accounts in order to place multiple bets with the same operator under different identities. Players who have previously been blocked may attempt to reengage in play by opening new accounts with stolen, spoofed or borrowed credentials. The experience of legitimate players can deteriorate when policy violators evade block lists.

Building a robust, proactive fraud prevention infrastructure starts by understanding the fraud risks across customers’ journeys and ensuring the journeys are both safe and convenient to navigate.
