AML & Compliance Policy
1. Our role
WOWsino is a B2B software-as-a-service vendor serving the iGaming industry. We:
- Do not hold player funds
- Do not process gambling wagers or settle bets
- Do not directly interact with end-players
- Are not a financial institution under the laws of most jurisdictions
Our customers — the licensed gambling operators that integrate WOWsino — are responsible for their own AML, CTF (counter-terrorist financing), KYC, and regulatory compliance under their gambling licenses. WOWsino provides tooling that supports our customers’ compliance work; we do not substitute for it.
2. Customer onboarding (Know-Your-Business)
WOWsino performs reasonable due diligence on prospective customers before granting paid access to the platform, including:
- Verification of the customer’s legal entity status (company registration, beneficial ownership where applicable)
- Verification of any gambling license(s) the customer claims to hold
- Sanctions screening against OFAC, EU, UK, and UN consolidated lists for the entity and named principals
- PEP (politically exposed person) screening for named principals
- Risk-based review of the customer’s jurisdiction(s) of operation
3. Prohibited customers and use cases
WOWsino does not provide service to:
- Operators offering gambling in jurisdictions where they are not properly licensed or where their offerings are explicitly prohibited
- Operators offering services to jurisdictions that are not permitted (US states without licensing, sanctioned countries, etc.) without appropriate geo-blocking and verification
- Operators or principals appearing on sanctions or terrorism-finance lists
- Operators primarily serving high-risk activities outside regulated iGaming (e.g. unregulated cryptocurrency exchanges, unlicensed financial services, illicit goods)
4. Tooling we provide for customer AML compliance
The platform provides built-in tooling that supports our customers’ AML programs:
- KYC document handling — standardized integration seam for Sumsub, Onfido, Persona, Veriff, and other major KYC vendors
- Sanctions & PEP screening — integration with screening providers; flags surfaced in the operator admin and compliance gate
- Responsible-gaming limits — per-player deposit, loss, session, and self-exclusion limits enforced at the money-action gate
- Velocity & transaction-monitoring rules — configurable thresholds for suspicious deposit/withdrawal patterns (structuring, smurfing signals)
- Multi-accounting detection — device-fingerprint and IP-clustering analysis
- Withdrawal review queue — manual approval workflow for high-risk or anomalous withdrawals
- Append-only audit log — tamper-resistant record of every gate decision, status change, and compliance action
- Source-of-funds documentation workflow — structured collection for high-value players
- Per-jurisdiction reporting — format adapters for UKGC, MGA, GCB Curaçao, and other regulators (roadmap)
5. Internal AML safeguards
Within WOWsino itself:
- All employees and contractors with administrative access undergo background screening proportional to their role
- Access to customer data is logged and reviewed
- Payments to and from WOWsino flow through verified, licensed banking partners
- WOWsino does not accept anonymous or cash payments
- WOWsino monitors its own platform for misuse and will suspend or terminate accounts that breach the Acceptable Use provisions of the Terms of Service
6. Cooperation with law enforcement and regulators
WOWsino cooperates with valid law-enforcement and regulator requests. Customer audit logs and compliance trails are preserved for the periods required by applicable regulators (typically 5–7 years for iGaming). WOWsino reserves the right, where legally permitted, to suspend access pending a lawful investigation.
7. Reporting suspicions
If you become aware of any actual or suspected misuse of the WOWsino platform — including potential money laundering, terrorist financing, fraud, or sanctions violations — please report it confidentially to: compliance@wowsino.com
8. Updates
This policy will be reviewed at least annually and updated as the platform’s capabilities and applicable law evolve.
