What online gambling operators are up against
A new era of fraud for online gambling
Fraud in online gambling surged 73% from 2022 to late 2024 and costs the sector about $1 billion a year, with bonus abuse alone driving 66% of cases (Gambling IQ).
Bonus abuse
One player, hundreds of accounts. Two thirds of iGaming fraud is bonus abuse: promos drained through duplicate and synthetic identities.
Underage gambling
Regulators require proof of age and eligibility before a single bet, and responsible gaming starts at sign-up. A minor placing wagers is a license-level event.
Money laundering
Deposits, chip dumping, and withdrawals launder value through player accounts, and the AML duty sits with the operator.
Payment and chargeback fraud
Stolen cards fund deposits and chargebacks claw back winnings, leaving the house covering both sides of the loss.

FAQ
Common questions about identity verification for online gambling
Still have questions? Talk to an expertHow do online gambling operators verify age and identity?
Every regulated market requires operators to confirm a player's age, identity, and eligibility before they can bet. Incode runs the checks as a ladder: data verification against official records first, then facial age estimation or a document check only when needed, so most players clear in seconds.
How does Incode stop bonus abuse and multi-accounting?
Bonus abuse is iGaming's biggest fraud problem, driving about two thirds of cases. Incode's face-based duplicate detection and device signals link one person across many accounts, so promo abuse, ban evasion, and bot farms stop at sign-up.
Does Incode meet US state and Canadian KYC rules for betting?
Yes. Every US state and Canadian province writes its own rules for opening a betting account. Incode adapts the verification flow market by market with audit-ready trails, which is how a leading sportsbook approves customers across dozens of regulated markets.
How does step-up verification protect deposits and withdrawals?
High-risk actions get a stronger check without slowing everyone down. Risk AI Agent scores each deposit, withdrawal, and reward, and applies a biometric step-up only when the risk justifies it, so low-risk players never feel it.
Can a deepfake or synthetic identity pass gambling KYC?
No. Passive liveness detection plus Deepsight block face swaps, injected camera feeds, and AI-generated documents, detecting deepfakes and synthetic identities with 99.9% accuracy.
Does identity verification slow down player onboarding?
No. More than 90% of players onboard on the first attempt, and the lightest check always runs first. Incode customers see 40% higher conversion rates alongside stronger fraud prevention.
