Introduction to KYC and AML in Kenya

1xbet applies KYC and AML controls to verify identity, prevent fraud, and combat money laundering and terrorism financing in line with Kenyan law. These security measures support user safety and account protection across all services.

• Fair play for all participants
• User safety through robust identity check procedures
• Transparency in handling personal data and payments
• Compliance with regulatory requirements set by Kenyan authorities
• Account protection through ongoing monitoring and controls

Every new user must complete ID verification before accessing full account features. Document submission may be required at any time to validate information and uphold compliance.

• Government-issued photo identification
• Proof of address linked to the account holder
• Confirmation of ownership for payment methods used

1xbet implements AML controls to prevent money laundering, terrorism financing, and other illegal activity. Measures are designed to meet local reporting obligations under the Proceeds of Crime and Anti-Money Laundering Act and guidance from the Financial Reporting Centre.

• Transaction monitoring and activity reviews to detect suspicious activity
• Automated detection rules and alerts for unusual patterns
• Enhanced due diligence for high-risk profiles, events, or jurisdictions
• Reviews of large or unusual deposits, withdrawals, and transfers
• Risk scoring based on behavioural, transactional, and geographical factors
• Screening against sanctions lists and Politically Exposed Persons registers
• Timely reporting to the Financial Reporting Centre where required by law

Restrictions help maintain system integrity, prevent fraud, and support AML objectives. Breaches may lead to enforcement in line with Kenyan regulatory requirements.

• Operating multiple accounts or impersonating others
• Using forged, altered, or stolen documents
• Any attempt to launder proceeds of crime
• Manipulating systems, markets, odds, or bet settlement
• Sharing, selling, or transferring account access
• Using third-party or unverified payment instruments
• Misrepresenting identity or source of funds

Violations of these rules trigger proportionate action to manage risk and comply with the law. Measures may include temporary or permanent account suspension, freezing or confiscation of funds linked to suspicious activity, cancellation of bets or winnings, reporting to competent authorities where applicable.

Users are responsible for providing accurate and up-to-date personal data and completing verification steps when requested. All document submission must be genuine and legible to support ID verification and identity check procedures. Only payment methods owned by the account holder may be used, and users must respond promptly to requests for additional information. Any suspicious activity should be reported to customer support without delay. Responsible gaming and cooperation with compliance reviews help protect accounts and the wider community.
