KYC and AML Overview for United Kingdom Users
KYC (Know Your Customer) and AML/CTF (Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorist Financing) exist to verify identity, monitor transactions, and deter financial crime under UK regulatory requirements. Agent No Wager applies identity check and ID verification standards set by the Gambling Commission to protect the account holder and support reporting obligations.
Purpose: identity check, user safety, and transparency
Agent No Wager applies KYC and AML controls to verify users, prevent fraud, and protect the platform against criminal misuse in the United Kingdom.
These measures support:
- Fair play across betting and gaming products
- User safety and account protection
- Transparency in how accounts are opened and used
- Compliance with regulatory requirements and reporting obligations
ID verification and document submission requirements
Every new user must complete ID verification before accessing full services, and may be asked for information during the account lifecycle to meet regulatory requirements.
Documents requested may include:
- Government-issued photo identification to confirm name, age, and nationality
- Proof of address dated within an acceptable timeframe
- Evidence that the payment method is owned by the account holder
- Further information to support identity check, source of funds, or source of wealth where risk dictates
AML security measures and transaction monitoring
Agent No Wager implements layered security measures to prevent money laundering and illegal activity, combining automated and manual controls to address suspicious activity.
Key controls include:
- Real-time and retrospective transaction monitoring across deposits, withdrawals, and gameplay
- Automated detection rules and alerts calibrated to risk indicators
- Enhanced due diligence for high-risk scenarios, including source of funds and source of wealth assessment
- Review and escalation of large or unusual transfers, patterns, or rapid movement of funds
- Customer and product risk scoring that informs ongoing oversight
- Sanctions and PEP screening against UK and international lists, including OFSI notices
- Reporting obligations fulfilled by submitting suspicious activity reports to the UKFIU (NCA) under the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002 and Terrorism Act 2000, where required by law
Prohibited activities supporting account protection
To uphold KYC and AML standards, certain activities are restricted and may lead to enforcement if detected.
Prohibited actions include:
- Creating multiple accounts or impersonating another person
- Submitting forged, altered, or stolen documents during document submission
- Attempting to launder criminal proceeds or obscure the source of funds
- Manipulating systems, odds, software, or payment flows
- Sharing, selling, or otherwise transferring account access
- Using third-party or anonymous payment instruments
- Misrepresenting identity, income, or the purpose of transactions
Consequences for non-compliance and suspicious activity
Breaches of this policy or failures during identity check and due diligence may result in immediate action, in line with UK law and licence conditions.
Enforcement may include temporary or permanent account suspension, freezing or confiscation of funds linked to suspicious activity, cancellation of bets or winnings, reporting to competent authorities where applicable.
User responsibilities for accurate personal data
Users must provide accurate, complete, and up-to-date personal data during registration and throughout the customer relationship. Verification requests must be completed promptly and any additional document submission must be supplied within stated timeframes. Only payment methods owned and controlled by the account holder may be used. Users should report suspicious activity or security concerns to customer support without delay. Actions should align with responsible gaming guidance and legal duties.
