Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Policy – SafeCasino

\n\n

SafeCasino, operated by TechSolutions Group N.V. and licensed by the Curacao Gaming Control Board, is fully committed to preventing money laundering, terrorist financing, and any other form of financial crime on its platform. This Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Policy outlines the measures, procedures, and obligations that SafeCasino enforces to ensure that the casino is not used as a vehicle for illicit financial activity.

\n\n

This policy applies to all players, employees, partners, and affiliates interacting with SafeCasino through its official website at http://safecasino.com/. By registering and using SafeCasino's services, all users agree to comply with the terms set out in this document.

\n\n

1. Legal Framework and Regulatory Basis

\n\n

SafeCasino operates under the jurisdiction of the Curacao Gaming Control Board and adheres to international AML standards, including but not limited to:

\n\n
    \n
  • The Financial Action Task Force (FATF) Recommendations on combating money laundering and terrorist financing;
  • \n
  • The relevant anti-money laundering directives and regulations applicable under Curacao licensing requirements;
  • \n
  • International best practices for online gambling operators regarding financial crime prevention;
  • \n
  • The United Nations Convention Against Transnational Organized Crime and related protocols.
  • \n
\n\n

SafeCasino continuously monitors changes in regulatory requirements and updates its internal procedures accordingly to remain fully compliant at all times.

\n\n

2. What Is Money Laundering?

\n\n

Money laundering is the process by which individuals or organisations attempt to conceal the origins of illegally obtained funds by passing them through a sequence of financial transactions to make them appear as legitimate income. Money laundering typically occurs in three stages:

\n\n
    \n
  • Placement: Illegally obtained funds are introduced into the financial system, for example by depositing cash at a casino or making online deposits;
  • \n
  • Layering: The funds are moved through a series of transactions designed to disguise their trail and origin;
  • \n
  • Integration: The laundered funds are reintroduced into the legitimate economy, appearing as lawful income or winnings.
  • \n
\n\n

Online casinos are considered potential targets for money laundering due to the nature of financial transactions involved. SafeCasino takes this risk extremely seriously and implements robust controls to prevent any such activity.

\n\n

3. Know Your Customer (KYC) Procedures

\n\n

SafeCasino maintains strict Know Your Customer (KYC) procedures as the first line of defence against money laundering. All players are required to verify their identity before withdrawals are processed or at any point deemed necessary by the compliance team. The verification process may require the following documents:

\n\n
    \n
  • Proof of Identity: A valid government-issued passport, national identity card, or driver's licence;
  • \n
  • Proof of Address: A recent utility bill, bank statement, or official correspondence dated within the last three months;
  • \n
  • Proof of Payment Method: Documentation confirming ownership of the payment method used, such as a copy of the bank card, e-wallet account screenshot, or bank statement;
  • \n
  • Source of Funds: In certain cases, players may be required to provide documentation evidencing the legitimate source of funds deposited into their account, such as payslips, tax returns, or bank statements.
  • \n
\n\n

SafeCasino reserves the right to request additional documentation at any stage of a player's relationship with the platform. Failure to provide the required documents within a reasonable timeframe may result in account suspension or permanent closure.

\n\n

4. Customer Due Diligence (CDD) and Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD)

\n\n

SafeCasino applies Customer Due Diligence (CDD) measures to all registered players as a standard practice. In situations where higher risks are identified, Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD) is applied. EDD may be triggered by:

\n\n
    \n
  • High-value transactions or unusually large deposits and withdrawals;
  • \n
  • Transactions inconsistent with a player's stated income or profile;
  • \n
  • Players from jurisdictions identified as high-risk by international bodies such as FATF;
  • \n
  • Politically Exposed Persons (PEPs) or individuals closely associated with PEPs;
  • \n
  • Any other circumstances that raise suspicion regarding the legitimacy of funds or the identity of the player.
  • \n
\n\n

When EDD is applied, SafeCasino may request comprehensive documentation, conduct more thorough background checks, and subject the account to ongoing enhanced monitoring.

\n\n

5. Politically Exposed Persons (PEPs)

\n\n

SafeCasino identifies and applies additional scrutiny to accounts held by Politically Exposed Persons (PEPs) — individuals who hold or have held prominent public positions, as well as their family members and close associates. PEPs are considered to carry a higher risk of involvement in bribery and corruption. Such accounts are subject to Enhanced Due Diligence, senior management approval, and ongoing monitoring throughout the business relationship.

\n\n

6. Transaction Monitoring

\n\n

SafeCasino employs ongoing transaction monitoring systems to detect and flag suspicious financial behaviour. Automated and manual monitoring processes review player activity for indicators such as:

\n\n
    \n
  • Unusually frequent or large deposits and withdrawals without corresponding gameplay activity;
  • \n
  • Deposits made using multiple payment methods or from different sources without logical explanation;
  • \n
  • Withdrawal requests shortly after deposit without significant gaming activity;
  • \n
  • Attempts to split transactions into smaller amounts to avoid detection thresholds;
  • \n
  • Requests to transfer funds to third-party accounts;
  • \n
  • Inconsistencies between the player's declared identity and their transactional behaviour;
  • \n
  • Use of payment methods from countries other than the player's country of residence.
  • \n
\n\n

All flagged transactions are reviewed by SafeCasino's compliance team. Depending on the findings, the team may request additional information from the player, restrict account activity, or report the matter to the relevant authorities.

\n\n

7. Suspicious Activity Reporting

\n\n

SafeCasino is obligated to report any suspicious activity to the appropriate regulatory and law enforcement authorities in accordance with applicable laws. A Suspicious Activity Report (SAR) may be filed when SafeCasino's compliance team has reasonable grounds to suspect that a transaction involves proceeds from criminal activity or is connected to money laundering or terrorist financing.

\n\n

In accordance with legal requirements, SafeCasino staff are prohibited from disclosing to any player or third party that a SAR has been filed or that they are under investigation — a practice known as "tipping off." Breaching this obligation may itself constitute a criminal offence.

\n\n

8. Prohibited Activities

\n\n

The following activities are strictly prohibited on the SafeCasino platform and will result in immediate account suspension, seizure of funds, and reporting to authorities where applicable:

\n\n
    \n
  • Using SafeCasino to deposit, move, or withdraw funds derived from illegal activities;
  • \n
  • Using another person's identity, payment methods, or account to conduct transactions;
  • \n
  • Creating multiple accounts to circumvent AML controls or limits;
  • \n
  • Colluding with other players or third parties to exploit the platform for financial gain through illegitimate means;
  • \n
  • Providing false or misleading information during registration or the KYC verification process;
  • \n
  • Attempting to manipulate transactions to avoid triggering monitoring thresholds.
  • \n
\n\n

9. Payment Methods and Financial Controls

\n\n

SafeCasino only accepts deposits and processes withdrawals through verified and approved payment channels. The accepted payment methods include Visa, MasterCard, Apple Pay, Skrill, Paysafecard, and Interac. Withdrawals are processed via the same methods used for deposits wherever possible, in line with industry best practices for preventing money laundering.

\n\n

SafeCasino does not accept cash deposits or anonymous payment methods. All transactions must be traceable to the verified account holder. The platform applies the following financial limits as part of its risk management strategy:

\n\n
    \n
  • Minimum deposit: €10;
  • \n
  • Withdrawal limit: EUR 4,000 per day, EUR 16,000 per week, EUR 50,000 per month;
  • \n
  • Pending period for withdrawals: 0–5 business days.
  • \n
\n\n

10. Employee Training and Responsibilities

\n\n

All SafeCasino employees, particularly those involved in customer-facing roles, compliance, and financial operations, receive regular training on AML policies and procedures. Training covers:

\n\n
    \n
  • Recognition of suspicious behaviour and red flags associated with money laundering;
  • \n
  • Understanding of KYC and CDD obligations;
  • \n
  • Correct procedures for reporting suspicious activity internally and externally;
  • \n
  • Applicable legal requirements and consequences of non-compliance.
  • \n
\n\n

SafeCasino designates a qualified Money Laundering Reporting Officer (MLRO) who is responsible for overseeing the implementation of this AML policy, reviewing SARs, and maintaining communication with regulatory authorities.

\n\n

11. Record Keeping

\n\n

SafeCasino maintains detailed records of all customer identification documents, transaction histories, and compliance-related communications for a minimum period of five (5) years from the date of the relevant transaction or the end of the business relationship with the customer, whichever is later. These records are stored securely and made available to regulatory authorities upon lawful request.

\n\n

12. Risk-Based Approach

\n\n

SafeCasino applies a risk-based approach to AML compliance, meaning that the level of scrutiny applied to any player or transaction is proportional to the assessed risk of money laundering or terrorist financing. This approach allows SafeCasino to allocate compliance resources effectively while ensuring that higher-risk scenarios receive the most thorough attention.

\n\n

Risk assessments are conducted at the point of registration, during ongoing account monitoring, and when significant changes occur in a player's activity or profile. Risk factors considered include geographic location, payment behaviour, volume of transactions, and consistency of gaming activity.

\n\n

13. Cooperation with Authorities

\n\n

SafeCasino is committed to full cooperation with regulatory bodies, law enforcement agencies, and financial intelligence units in any investigation related to money laundering or financial crime. This includes providing transaction records, customer identification data, and any other relevant information as required by law.

\n\n

SafeCasino will comply with lawful orders to freeze, seize, or return funds that are suspected to be the proceeds of criminal activity, regardless of the impact on the affected player account.

\n\n

14. Self-Exclusion and Responsible Gambling

\n\n

While SafeCasino's responsible gambling tools are discussed in detail in the Responsible Gambling Policy, it is worth noting that the Self-Exclusion Tool available on the platform also serves an indirect AML function by allowing the casino to restrict access for individuals whose activity raises concerns. Players who wish to request self-exclusion or have questions about their account may contact SafeCasino's support team at any time.

\n\n

15. Updates to This Policy

\n\n

SafeCasino reserves the right to amend, update, or revise this AML Policy at any time in response to changes in applicable law, regulatory guidance, or internal risk assessments. Updated versions of this policy will be published on the official SafeCasino website. Players are encouraged to review this policy periodically to remain informed of any changes.

\n\n

The continued use of SafeCasino's services following any update to this policy constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
