iGaming Innovators Reveal Customer Connections and Suspicious Activity With SEON

Mikail Arendse

EZY, like any iGaming company, faced key threats, including multi-accounting, ID fraud, and bonus abuse.

To address these challenges, they required a system capable of suggesting AI-driven rules, providing in-depth device data points, and offering 90+ digital and social signals to onboard genuine customers and conduct in-depth transaction monitoring.

By implementing SEON, a sophisticated security solution, EZY was able to identify and address issues such as device masking, multi-accounting, and IP or VPN restrictions, and link them to fraudulent customers effectively.

About EZY Gaming

Founded in The Netherlands in 2017, EZY Gaming is revolutionising the iGaming industry by redefining the player experience with an innovation-focused mindset. The company runs a large variety of gaming products through the brand arcanebet, focusing primarily on online casinos. Player safety, local regulations and innovation are an integral part of its business model, and it is planning more brand launches in the near future

EZY Gaming’s Fraud Challenges

Advantage players are adapting their strategies rapidly to find the most undetectable methods to circumvent rules. They are fearless in their approach and prepared to dispute any case with a third-party mediator, regardless of their claim’s validity.

In its early days, EZY Gaming relied on internal tools and a gaming provider’s management service to combat risk. Like every other iGaming company, its key threats included multi accounting, ID fraud and bonus abuse.

But as the company grew, EZY Gaming migrated to an in-house platform and opted to manage risk and fraud internally. This proved more challenging than anticipated. There were no KPIs to measure. No solution to compile evidence when fighting to prove their dedication to safe gaming.

“Advantage players are adapting their strategies rapidly to find the most undetectable methods to circumvent rules,” says Mikail Arendse, Head of Operations at EZY Gaming. “They are fearless in their approach and prepared to dispute any case with a third-party mediator, regardless of their claim’s validity.”

Solution

Mikail and his team knew they had to fight back, and what they needed: a solution to gather in-depth data, so they could reveal multi-accounting, ID fraud and device-masking software. One that could meet GDPR requirements, suggest custom rules – preferably thanks to machine learning, and scale along with their operations.

SEON Ticks All Boxes, Supports EZY Gaming’s Growth

We have different intervention points to review throughout the customer journey. As a result of using SEON’s device intelligence, we discovered device masking, multi-accounting, IP or VPN restrictions, and linking fraudulent customers has never been easier.

After shortlisting several anti-fraud companies, EZY Gaming settled on SEON. Why SEON? “The ability to screen each transaction and customer, the level of detail provided in each review, automation options, intuitiveness of the system, and costs,” Mikail says. “Not to mention the support we received during the initial information sharing phase.

After a prompt and seamless integration, EZY Gaming was ready to take on the fraudsters. They leverage SEON’s real-time whitebox AI-powered system to trigger notifications with the specific goal of flagging suspicious behaviour.
