Verification Procedures - BVGroup

Identification

In order to meet our obligations as a licensed gambling operator and to ensure a safe and responsible betting environment, we need to ensure that our customers are who they say they are. This is why we run thorough identity checks on all our customers.

Every customer is different, so we may ask for different details according to a customer’s deposits, win/loss ratio or other betting behaviour. Of course, we ensure all customers’ information is kept private and confidential at all times.

Affordability

We want our customers to enjoy their gambling experience, but more importantly, we want them to play and bet within their means.

As a gambling operator, it is important for us to try to prevent individuals spending more than they can afford to lose. For this reason, we may conduct affordability checks to help identify customers who we think may be at risk of spending beyond their means.

Our affordability checks could require our customers to provide information about their circumstances and/or supporting documentation. At times, we may verify any information provided with a credit reference agency.

Due Diligence

If a customer plays or bets beyond certain thresholds, we may request copies of documentation to verify their personal circumstances. This is an attempt to verify that our customers are gambling within their means.
