Testimonials

“Previously our manual process was open to fraudsters, now with GBG we are confident manipulated and fraudulent documents can be detected. This is helping to keep fraudsters away and providing us with the regulatory compliance reassurance that we require at Oanda.”

Graham Morris, Compliance Officer at Oanda.com

"GBG's PEP and Sanctions ongoing monitoring solution has helped to reduce our exposure to high-risk global customers. We receive flags for any high-risk players and also receive alerts if any existing player's status changes. This gives us confidence that we are automatically being protected and maintaining compliance. GBG's expertise and support help to ensure our process run smoothly and efficiently."

Charlie McMaw, Head of Fraud, Risk and Payments at High 5 Games

“GBG provides a global solution, on a single platform, and will play an imperative role in our mission to expand our international operations”
