Challenges in Gaming compliance survey

With this study, IDnow and SBC Media set out to establish an industry benchmark for what the biggest compliance challenges of 2024 are and evaluate how they are likely to evolve during the year.

The study looked at four areas: compliance, fraud, onboarding, and financial risk checks. It asked over 100 operators working in markets across Europe, the US, and Latin America about their experiences and expectations to obtain an international perspective on the industry’s biggest pain points.

The challenges faced by betting and gaming operators’ compliance teams are many and varied. As the industry continues its move towards regulation in new territories and tighter regulation in established markets, and the technological revolution keeps speeding ahead, those issues are in a state of constant change.
