FIAU and MGA publish Implementing Procedures Part II for the Remote Gaming Sector
The Financial Intelligence Analysis Unit (“FIAU”), in conjunction with the Malta Gaming Authority (“MGA”), has today published a revised version of the Implementing Procedures Part II for the Remote Gaming Sector.
The changes carried out were rendered necessary to address amendments to the Prevention of Money Laundering and Funding of Terrorism Regulations (“PMLFTR”) and to the Implementing Procedures – Part I, as well as to reflect realities that FIAU and MGA officers have been encountering in the course of supervisory activities. The salient revisions made to these Implementing Procedures are listed hereunder:
- Providing further guidance on customer due diligence (“CDD”), such as on the verification of customers’ identity, the carrying out of ongoing monitoring, dealing with customers who are PEPs, as well as on the requirements that persons acting as MLROs are expected to meet;
- Clarification on the obligations of subject persons when the customer is not willing to provide the same with the necessary information and/or documentation required as part of CDD;
- Further elaboration on risk factors which are to be taken into account by subject persons, such as on the involvement of affiliates;
- The extension of the licensees’ own anti-money laundering and countering the funding of terrorism (“AML/CFT”) obligations to physical establishments used to extend licensees’ customer reach;
- The provision of targeted guidance on Corporate Licensees; and
- The inclusion of case studies based on actual cases analysed by the FIAU’s own Intelligence Analysis Section.
In an effort to further assist interested parties, the FIAU has also published on its website a copy of the original Implementing Procedures Part II with all the changes carried out tracked out for ease of reference.
Subject persons are reminded that these Implementing Procedures and the amendments that have been made thereto focus on certain aspects of the PMLFTR and their application that warrant further elaboration at industry-specific level in order to ensure their correct interpretation and application by licensees. Licencees are hereby being reminded that to understand and fulfil their AML/CFT obligations, they are to read these Implementing Procedures in conjunction with the Implementing Procedures Part I.
The revised version of the Implementing Procedures Part II is effective from today the 2nd July 2020.
The Implementing Procedures Part II can be viewed from here.

Atlaslive Marks Responsible Gambling Day and Reaffirms Long-Term Commitment
On February 17, Atlaslive joined the global iGaming community in recognizing Responsible Gambling Day—a moment to reflect not only on industry growth but on how that growth is managed. Sustainable expansion is not driven by scale alone; it relies on responsibility, transparency, and player empowerment.
This year, regulators, operators, and advocacy organizations across Latin America and Europe emphasized the same principle: effective player protection depends on prevention, education, practical safeguards, and transparent processes.
As regulatory frameworks mature, licensing requirements increasingly embed stronger transparency and player protection standards. This reflects a shared understanding that regulated gambling can only succeed when operators, platform providers, and regulators align around harm prevention.
At Atlaslive, responsible play is embedded within the platform architecture. Configurable player limits and self-exclusion checks connected to market-standard exclusion systems ensure users retain control over their participation. The objective remains consistent: gaming should remain entertainment, not a loss of control.
Responsible gambling features at Atlaslive include:
-
GDPR-compliant data handling, ensuring strict privacy standards across regulated markets.
-
Built-in player controls, allowing users to set deposit limits, session time limits, cooling-off periods, and self-exclusion preferences.
-
Automated self-exclusion verification, including regulatory API integrations to prevent re-registration during active exclusions.
-
Real-time behavioral monitoring tools, enabling operators to identify and address potentially problematic gaming patterns.
-
System-level enforcement of player decisions, ensuring activated restrictions cannot be overridden manually.
These safeguards operate automatically and consistently, reducing ambiguity and supporting transparent enforcement of regulatory standards.
As expectations rise across markets, responsibility becomes measurable through system design, automated controls, and clear accountability, contributing to a more stable and sustainable gaming environment.
Anastasiia Poltavets, CMO at Atlaslive, said:
“Responsible Gambling Day isn’t about a one-day marketing message. It’s about a year-long commitment — one that operators, regulators, and technology providers share. When the industry embraces responsible play not as a burden but as a foundation, we move closer to a future where gaming remains a source of entertainment, not a cause of harm.”
