Today, a leading online betting and gaming operator, Pinnacle, has partnered up with Sumsub, an identity verification platform that covers KYC/KYB/AML needs. Sumsub will ensure a simpler and faster onboarding flow for Pinnacle’s users. On top of that, the KYC & AML provider will help Pinnacle protect their users from unnecessary gambling risks and become even more socially responsible. The betting company will also get all of the necessary tools for payment fraud prevention and smarter risk management.
Pinnacle is a leading online betting platform with headquarters in Curaçao. In addition to sports and esports betting, the company also offers online casino services and has been in the business for over 20 years. Pinnacle is considered one of the most trustworthy sportsbooks in the industry, given its high security standards, which are similar to that of major financial institutions.

It was a great leap forward in terms of the internal organisation of our compliance processes. Overall, we are providing a better onboarding experience for the members of our betting community.” —Veronique dos Reis, Legal, Compliance and Regulatory Affairs Manager at Pinnacle.

BETBY and Vibra Gaming join forces to accelerate expansion in Latam
BETBY has signed a partnership with Vibra Gaming that will see the B2B sportsbook supplier deliver its full solution to the Latin American platform developer, including its AI-powered tools and proprietary esports feed.
Through the agreement, Vibra Gaming will integrate BETBY’s sportsbook via a single API, giving its operator partners access to more than 500,000 monthly events without significant development overhead.
The integration is designed to reduce time-to-market for operators looking to add sports betting to an existing multi-vertical offering.
A key component of the deal is the inclusion of Betby.Games, BETBY’s esports feed, which includes hyper-localised titles such as eVaquejada and eFootVolley — products built specifically for Latin American audiences.
“This partnership is a natural fit for both sides,” said Stefanos Karakidis, Business Development Director at BETBY.
“What makes this collaboration particularly strong is how seamlessly our solution integrates into Vibra’s ecosystem, enabling their casino operator partners to expand into sports betting in a fast, efficient and scalable way.”
Werter Luna, CEO at Vibra Gaming, said the integration expands the platform with a sports betting offering that matches the company’s standards for performance and adaptability.
“We are particularly excited about the potential of combining their technology and esports content with our localised approach to further enhance the player experience across Latin America.”
BETBY holds operational licences in Brazil and Peru and has been actively expanding its footprint across the region. The Vibra Gaming partnership is part of that broader push into Latin America.
