Regulatory obligations

The rules operators must follow

Every major gambling regulator requires age verification and AML checks before play. Here's what KYC Genie keeps you compliant with.

UK
UKGC — LCCP & Age Verification
UKGC Licence Conditions and Codes of Practice require operators to verify the age and identity of every customer before allowing play. Failure to prevent underage gambling or to conduct AML checks on high-value players risks licence revocation and multi-million pound fines.
Age verify before play EDD for high-value Source of funds checks
Malta / EU
MGA & 4AMLD Gambling
The Malta Gaming Authority and EU Anti-Money Laundering Directives apply full KYC and AML obligations to gambling service providers. The €2,000 transaction threshold triggers CDD requirements, with EDD mandated for politically exposed persons and high-risk customers.
€2,000 CDD threshold PEP checks Ongoing monitoring
Global
Responsible Gambling & Exclusion
All regulated markets require operators to check new registrations against self-exclusion schemes such as GAMSTOP before allowing play. Operators who onboard self-excluded customers risk criminal liability, not just regulatory sanction.
