MrQ leads on player verification with ClearStake partnership

Fast-growing UK operator MrQ has integrated ClearStake’s new player verification product, ID by Bank, as it takes the lead in reducing document fraud and drop-offs at registration.

The partnership sees MrQ adopt the next-generation verification solution, enabling players to confirm their name, address and date of birth in real-time using their banking app, without the need to upload physical documents.

MrQ CEO Savvas Fellas, said: “ClearStake has utilised the open banking technology in a way that is needed. Not just for operators like MrQ but for players too. Players are aware of this technology and we need to keep up with expectations and suspend any of our beliefs around the utility of it. ClearStake is doing a great job at pushing the boundaries of what can be done with the technology available.”

Martin Burt, CEO at ClearStake, added: “MrQ has a well-earned reputation for putting the player experience first, so we’re delighted to partner with them. ID by Bank is a product designed to solve the biggest problems operators face with verification, particularly fraud prevention and the speed of processing physical documents.”

ID by Bank is the latest innovation from ClearStake, the digital due diligence specialists for the iGaming industry.

It is designed to combat rising levels of identity fraud and significantly reduce player drop-off during the KYC and CDD processes. The solution fits the UK Gambling Commission’s AML requirements for customer due diligence, while also delivering a smoother and more secure user experience.
