Star Sports, an iGaming operator, has teamed up with ClearStake to enhance its player verification and compliance systems. They will be using bank-based technology that will not only make things more secure but also allow for smooth user operations.
According to the deal, Star Sports will embed ClearStake’s ID by Bank solution on its iGaming platform. The platform provides a way for users to verify their identity using their bank app without needing to scan and send their documents. The technology is anticipated to make onboarding faster and at the same time, it will help Star Sports to be compliant in the UK regulated iGaming market.
Besides ID by Bank, Star Sports will also be using ClearStake’s affordability and source of funds features to complete the compliance system they have. These features are aimed at helping operators to comply with financial check regulations and responsible gambling obligations.
ClearStake unveiled ID by Bank, a service through which several UK iGaming operators view the system as a modern replacement to the traditional document, style, based verification. According to the company, the new solution can notably raise the success rates of customer verification while also cutting down the operational workload by automating certain steps of the customer due diligence process.
Star Sports, a UK independent bookmaker, has both retail and online iGaming facilities on offer. Among the operator’s moves to improve compliance controls while giving a smooth player experience is the incorporation of bank, driven verification technology. There was no leak about the deal.
Flynn Goward, Managing Director of Star Sports, said:
We’re always looking for ways to make the player journey smoother without compromising on compliance. ClearStake’s technology gives us exactly that balance. It’s been simple to integrate, and we’re already seeing faster verification and fewer hurdles for genuine customers.
Martin Burt, CEO of ClearStake, added:
Star Sports is one of the most recognized and trusted betting brands in the UK, so we’re thrilled to be helping them enhance their verification processes. By adopting ID by Bank alongside our affordability and source of funds tools, they’re setting the benchmark for what modern player verification should look like.
