AML Policy

Purpose of this anti-money laundering policy

The purpose of this policy is to prevent money laundering, terrorist financing, payment fraud, identity abuse, use of third-party payment methods, misuse of documents and concealment of the origin of funds.

SafeCasino may not be used as a money transfer service, payment transit service, currency conversion mechanism, or means of concealing the origin, ownership, movement, or destination of funds. Deposits should be for genuine gaming activity and withdrawals may be monitored if your account, payment or gaming behavior indicates an increased risk.

Legal and regulatory framework

Online gambling rules in Australia are set by the applicable national and local authorities. Licensing and player-acceptance requirements can change. Before registering or depositing, players should consult official government or regulator guidance and confirm that the operator may serve their location.

Scope of this policy

This anti-money laundering policy informatively applies to all operations that may be relevant on a casino platform like SafeCasino: registration, identity verification, age verification, deposits, withdrawals, payment methods, bonus activity, gaming behavior, VIP activity, dormant accounts, crypto payments, suspicious activity and restricted countries.

The policy applies regardless of whether a task is completed, attempted, rejected, delayed, canceled or reviewed by the operator.

Check “know your customer.”

KYC is used to verify your identity, age, address, payment method ownership, and account legitimacy. KYC is not optional in regulated gambling and payment processes and may be required before deposits, before withdrawals or during ongoing account verification.

When KYC may be required

The operator can request KYC at the time of registration, before the first withdrawal, after reaching certain deposit or withdrawal thresholds, in case of suspicious activity, when changing the payment method, in case of conflicting account details, when using the bonus, during VIP activity or randomly.

Documents that may be requested

• Passport, identity card or driving license;
• proof of address, bank statement or utility bill;
• Proof of ownership of the card, bank account, e-wallet or wallet;
• selfie, liveness or video verification;
• Proof of source of funds or source of assets;
• other documents for AML, fraud prevention, payment security or compliance.

All documents must be valid, legible, complete, unmodified and registered in the player's name. Falsified, foreign, altered or misleading documents may result in an account being restricted or closed.

Age verification

Users must be at least 18 years old or the legal gambling age in their jurisdiction, whichever is higher. Minors are not permitted to create an account, make deposits, play games, receive bonuses or request withdrawals.

The operator may request identity documents or additional proof to confirm age. False age information may be treated as a violation of account and compliance rules.

Origin of funds and origin of assets

Source of funds refers to the specific source of funds used for deposits or gaming activity. Examples include salary, business income, savings, sale of property, investment returns or inheritance.

The source of wealth describes the player's general financial background or position. It may become relevant when transaction volumes, gaming patterns, VIP activity or payment behavior require further risk assessment.

If a player does not provide sufficient evidence, the operator may limit deposits, delay withdrawals, suspend gaming activity or verify the account.

Payment method requirements

Players must only use payment methods that are owned by them and registered in their name. The name on the card, bank account, e-wallet or wallet must match the name in the player's account.

Third-party payment methods are inherently risky and may be declined unless the operator explicitly allows them. The Operator may request proof of ownership, return funds to the original payment method, refuse transactions or verify the account if third-party payments, stolen payment instruments or anti-money laundering risks are suspected.

Transaction monitoring

The operator can monitor transactions, account behavior, payment patterns, gaming patterns, device information, IP data and other risk factors. Monitoring can be automated, manual or combined.

Risk factors may include rapid deposits and withdrawals, low gaming activity between deposit and withdrawal, multiple payment methods, frequent IP or device changes, geographic discrepancies, linked accounts, chargebacks, failed payments, suspicious use of bonuses, or conflicting documents.

Prohibited activities

The following activities are prohibited on a casino platform like SafeCasino or may result in checks, restrictions or account closure:

• Use of the Platform for money transfers or payment transit;
• Deposit without real gaming activity;
• Use of third-party cards, accounts, wallets or payment instruments;
• Submission of counterfeit, modified or third-party documents;
• Opening an account for another person;
• Multi-accounting and coordinated use of bonuses;
• evade or refuse KYC checks;
• Avoidance of AML, sanctions or GEO restrictions;
• Mask your location via VPN, proxy, or similar methods;
• chargeback fraud or abusive payment disputes;
• Use of the Platform in relation to illegal activities.

Expanded due diligence obligations

Enhanced due diligence requirements may apply if increased anti-money laundering, fraud, sanctions or payments risks are identified. This may occur in the case of large transactions, VIP activity, unusual transaction patterns, high-risk jurisdictions, PEP eligibility, conflicting documents, or multiple payment methods.

Advanced checks may include additional identity verification, proof of address, bank statements, proof of funds, proof of asset origin, video verification, manual compliance checking and verification by payment service providers.

Sanctions, restricted countries and high-risk jurisdictions

The operator can check players, payment methods, countries, IP addresses, devices, wallets and other data against sanctions lists, restricted countries, licensing restrictions, payment provider rules and internal risk controls.

The following also applies to Australia and other regulated markets: Local legality, regional availability and licensing context should be verified before registration and filing. Users cannot circumvent GEO restrictions, sanctions checks or legal restrictions.

Players or payments relating to high-risk jurisdictions may be subject to additional checks. The operator may request additional documents, limit deposits, delay withdrawals, refuse transactions or refuse registration if the risk is unacceptable.

Account restrictions and withdrawal verification

The Operator may apply account restrictions, if necessary, for AML, CTF, fraud prevention, payment security, sanctions, licensing obligations or internal risk assessment.

Restrictions may include blocking deposits, delaying withdrawals, deactivating bonuses, suspending gaming activity, freezing account access, limiting payment methods, canceling pending transactions, requiring additional verification, or closing your account.

Withdrawal requests can be checked before processing. A withdrawal may be delayed if KYC is incomplete, payment method ownership needs to be confirmed, bonus conditions are verified, suspicious activity occurs or additional AML checks are required.

Cryptocurrency transactions

This section only applies if cryptocurrencies are specifically offered in the SafeCasino cashier area. If cryptocurrency payments are unavailable, users should not attempt to deposit or withdraw using unsupported methods.

Crypto transactions may be subject to anti-money laundering checks, sanctions checks, wallet checks, transaction monitoring and source of funds checks, where available. Transactions related to mixers, sanctioned wallets, fraud, stolen funds, high-risk exchanges or suspicious sources may be rejected, delayed or investigated.

Storage, data protection and confidentiality

The Operator may store data necessary for anti-money laundering, fraud prevention, payment security, legal, regulatory and commercial purposes. This may include KYC documents, transaction history, payment data, account activity, communication data, IP logs, device data, risk assessments and compliance notes.

Privacy and data-protection requirements in Australia depend on the laws that apply to the user, publisher and external operator. Users should consult the relevant local data-protection authority and the operator's current privacy information.
