AU10TIX: 20 EU countries Tighten Regulations on Online Gambling Payments and Security Making Effective ID Authentication & Onboarding Technology Imperative
Nicosia, Cyprus (PRWEB) December 09, 2015 -- An EU statement indicated that the 7 million citizens of the Eurozone who gamble online are "vulnerable to financial and identity fraud, or privacy breaches," and that "gambling service providers can also be exploited for unlawful ends" including money laundering. Under the agreement, regulators from European Economic Zone countries will address payment and verification. The pact also covers how to best supervise and coordinate compliance with various national laws preventing money laundering and fraud and protecting consumers (Source: http://cardnotpresent.com/news/default.aspx?id=12637). Many gaming companies still use manual or semi-manual ID authentication and screening practices that already cost expensive overhead and drive considerable customer abandonment due slow and fractioned to customer onboarding and qualification. AU10TIX, the leader in ID authentication and onboarding technology, sees the implementation of 2nd generation ID authentication technology imperative to survival and growth in the increasingly competitive and regulated marketplace.
“Online gaming has been slow to introduce effective customer ID authentication and onboarding technology”, says Ron Atzmon, Managing Director of AU10TIX: “Unlike payments, money transfer, lending, remittance and other regulated verticals online gaming companies still rely on manual back-office work, at the most with some semi-automation. This is most likely to end. And sooner rather than later. And it’s not just because f regulations. It’s just as much about conversion success rates and operating efficiency“.
“Online gaming needs 2nd generation ID authentication and fast-track onboarding technology”, says Ofer Friedman, VP Marketing of AU10TIX: “This technology generation is the only one offering both multi-factor authentication fast turnaround and superior success rates with sub-optimal ID image qualities. It is unparalleled in the ability to show regulators exactly how customer passed ID authentication. It is unparalleled in opening up the customer acquisition pipeline. And it changes back-office cost-efficiency. Those who implement this technology sooner will benefit from a valuable competitive edge.“
