1w KYC & AML Policy

1w applies KYC and AML procedures to verify identity, strengthen fraud prevention, and prevent financial crime. These measures form the foundation of a safe and transparent gaming environment.

Key objectives of the policy

• Fair play for all users without manipulation or fraud
• Ensuring user safety by protecting personal data
• Transparency of operations and clear accountability
• Compliance with regulatory requirements under Finnish legislation
• Protecting accounts from unauthorised use and identity theft

Every new user must complete identity verification before withdrawals or certain services can be used in full. Submitting documents is mandatory, and requests must be answered within the specified timeframe to ensure full account functionality.

Documents that may be requested include

• A government-issued photo ID (e.g. passport or identity card)
• Proof of address, such as a utility bill or official letter
• Proof of payment method ownership confirming that the payment method used belongs to the account holder
• Any additional documents required under risk-based assessment or regulatory requirements

1w applies comprehensive monitoring measures to prevent money laundering, terrorist financing, and other illegal activity on its platform. The security measures in place are based on a risk-based approach and international AML standards.

Monitoring measures in use

• Continuous monitoring of transactions and behaviour to detect suspicious patterns
• Automated detection rules that flag unusual activity for review
• Enhanced due diligence procedures for high-risk transactions or accounts
• Manual review of large or unusual money transfers
• A risk scoring system that classifies accounts and transactions by risk level
• Screening against sanctions lists and politically exposed persons (PEPs)
• Fulfilling reporting obligations by submitting reports on suspicious activity to the relevant authorities

The platform has clear restrictions in place to support compliance with KYC and AML obligations and to protect all users. The following actions are strictly prohibited and may result in account closure and other measures.

Prohibited actions include, among others

• Creating or managing multiple accounts for the same person (multi-accounting)
• Submitting forged or stolen identity documents during identity verification
• Deposits, withdrawals, or wagering activity indicative of money laundering
• Manipulating system operations or circumventing game terms
• Sharing, selling, or transferring account access to a third party
• Using payment methods belonging to third parties without proper authorisation
• Misrepresenting identity or other account details during registration or verification

Violating the rules or engaging in suspicious activity will result in immediate action regarding the account and associated funds. Applicable measures include, among others, temporary or permanent account closure, freezing or confiscation of funds linked to suspicious activity, cancellation of bets or winnings, and disclosure of information to the relevant authorities to the extent required by applicable legislation.

All account holders must provide accurate and up-to-date personal information when registering and keep their details current throughout the customer relationship. Verification requests must be handled promptly, and required documents must be submitted within the specified timeframe to ensure account functionality. Users may only use payment methods of which they are the lawful owners; the use of third-party payment instruments is not permitted. If a user detects suspicious activity on their account or on the platform, they must report it to customer support immediately. Misrepresenting personal information or documents is prohibited and may lead to legal consequences.

1w is committed to maintaining an honest and open gaming environment where every account holder can trust fair terms and the proper protection of their personal data. These principles guide all activity on the platform.
