Hand-picked judging panel pick 1account as “truly ground-breaking”.
1account, the leading provider of age verification and digital ID solutions, has been recognised at one of the sports, betting and gaming industry’s biggest and most prestigious events, scooping Fraud & Compliance Solution of the Year at the SBC Awards 2021.
Up against some of the industry’s best known and established names, the judges decided 1account’s fresh approach to KYC and AML compliance – backed by its market-leading digital ID and age verification solutions – was the clear winner.
Now in their eighth year, the SBC Awards recognise the achievements of operators, affiliates and suppliers from across all major disciplines including payments, marketing, platform providers and data.
The glittering event, which took place at Evolution London, was attended by many of the industry’s leading figures. According to the organisers, a hand-picked judging panel was selected from “the cream of the industry to pick out the truly ground-breaking entries”.
Ben Keirle, founder and CEO of 1account, said: “Given we are relatively new to the market we are thrilled to have won this award, especially as we were up against extremely stiff competition.
“The sports betting and gaming industry is one of the most highly regulated on the planet, so to have the judges recognise the exceptional compliance protection our solutions deliver is a wonderful accolade for the whole team at 1account, which has worked tirelessly over the past two years and through exceptionally challenging circumstances.”
1account’s KYC checks deliver the highest success ratios on the market, thanks to multiple data sources, more than any other supplier. 1account achieves a match for up to 95% of legitimate individuals (much higher than typical success ratios provided by other age verification suppliers - typically 70-80%) generating a valuable uplift for operators seeking to increase their player revenues.
In addition to betting and gaming, 1account is also active in other age restricted industries including the fast-growing vaping sector where it is rapidly gaining dominance as the go-to solution for online age verification solutions.
“What the judges have seen in 1account is that we are here to properly shake up the industry for the better and genuinely change the game for how sports betting and gaming companies operate and interact with their customers,” continued Ben Keirle.
“I believe the sky's the limit for what we can achieve in this industry and others,” he added.
