Sumsub has unveiled a new identity verification solution designed to help online betting platforms operating in Brazil comply with local regulations while reducing onboarding friction. The solution retrieves identity data and document images from local databases, eliminating the need for users to manually upload documents during registration. The offering targets major operators entering Brazil, international companies expanding across Latin America, and existing platforms seeking to improve customer experience.

  • Verification Process: Players provide CPF number and complete liveness check via selfie; system retrieves identity data and document image from local databases
  • Compliance Features: Audit trail preserved; all data retrieval aligned with LGPD requirements; requires explicit user consent
  • Fraud Prevention Tools: Device Intelligence, Fraud Networks, deepfake detection, transaction monitoring, and AI-powered case management
  • Client Base: Sumsub serves over 4,000 clients worldwide, including more than 400 companies in the iGaming sector

Brazilian regulations require operators to identify bettors and maintain records of their information and documents. While these controls are essential for market security, manual document uploads typically extend onboarding timelines and increase user abandonment rates. Sumsub‘s solution maintains full regulatory compliance through an audit trail that preserves verification results, including stored identification documents and biometric evidence, in a secure compliance dashboard.

Entering a regulated market requires rigorous verification processes, but this does not mean that the player experience needs to be complex. Our solution allows operators to obtain the information and documents required to strictly comply with Brazilian regulations while providing users with a smoother onboarding experience.

The platform integrates local verification with broader fraud prevention capabilities that analyze device fingerprints, identify connections between registration attempts, and detect identity manipulation. Sumsub noted that cross-referencing data against device information, biometrics, user behavior, and other registered accounts can reveal fraud indicators that isolated verification checks might miss. The solution includes localized dashboards and software development kits tailored to the Brazilian market, allowing global operators to centralize verification and monitoring operations while delivering locally customized user experiences.

Sumsub is recognized as a leader by Gartner, Forrester, and IDC. The company provides identity verification and fraud prevention solutions across multiple regulated industries and markets.
