KYC and AML overview for India: identity check and transparency

Know Your Customer and Anti-Money Laundering standards guide identity check, ID verification, and document submission on Parimatch to protect users in India. These security measures – available through the Parimatch global Apk – meet Indian regulatory expectations, including obligations under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act, 2002 and guidance from the Financial Intelligence Unit–India where applicable. The policy promotes transparency, user safety, and responsible handling of personal data.

Purpose of KYC & AML: user safety, fair play, and compliance

KYC and AML controls verify who the account holder is, prevent fraud, and deter misuse of the platform. These measures uphold fair play, account protection, and compliance across India.

  • Fair play supported by consistent identity check and transaction monitoring
  • User safety and account protection through robust security measures
  • Transparency on document submission and verification status
  • Compliance with Indian regulatory requirements and reporting obligations
  • Support for responsible gaming and harm minimisation

ID verification and document submission requirements for account holders

Every new user must complete ID verification before accessing full services. Additional checks may be required to confirm the account holder’s identity and the legitimacy of funds.

  • Government-issued photo identification evidencing full name and date of birth
  • Proof of address confirming residence in the stated jurisdiction
  • Confirmation of payment-method ownership by the account holder

AML security measures and transaction monitoring framework

Controls are applied to prevent money laundering, terrorism financing, and other unlawful activity. Monitoring and risk-based reviews help detect suspicious activity and meet reporting obligations in India.

  • Ongoing transaction and activity monitoring for unusual patterns
  • Automated detection rules and alerts to flag anomalies
  • Enhanced due diligence for higher-risk profiles or triggering events
  • Manual review of large or unusual transfers and betting behaviour
  • Risk scoring, periodic reassessment, and escalation procedures
  • Sanctions and PEP screening against international and Indian lists
  • Timely reporting to FIU-IND and other competent authorities where required by law

Prohibited activities to protect accounts and prevent misuse

Restrictions apply to support AML controls, protect personal data, and maintain a secure environment. Any misuse of identity or funds undermines fair play and user safety.

  • Creating multiple accounts or acting on behalf of others
  • Submitting forged, altered, or stolen documents
  • Any attempt to launder proceeds of crime or disguise the source of funds
  • Manipulating systems, markets, or game outcomes
  • Sharing, selling, or otherwise transferring account access
  • Using third-party or anonymous payment instruments
  • Misrepresenting identity or concealing the true account holder

Consequences of non-compliance and enforcement actions

Violations of KYC or AML rules result in proportional enforcement measures under applicable law and licence conditions.

Administrative 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.

User responsibilities for ID verification, account protection, and reporting

Users must provide accurate and complete personal data, and keep profile details current. Verification steps and any follow-up requests must be completed within the stated timelines to avoid service limits. The account holder should respond promptly to requests for additional documents and use only payment methods owned and controlled by that person. Any suspicious activity on the account must be reported immediately to customer support or the compliance contact. Cooperation during reviews helps maintain security measures and meet regulatory requirements in India.
