Soft2Bet partners with Onfido to power trusted identity verification for its gaming platform
Casino and sportsbook platform provider Soft2Bet has partnered with global identity verification and authentication leader, Onfido, to provide secure and simplified identity verification for user onboarding.
Onfido’s award-winning technology uses artificial intelligence (AI) and facial biometrics to verify users’ identities, providing a more convenient user experience for Soft2Bet customers while reducing fraud. The integration automates customer onboarding and streamlines Know Your Customer (KYC) requirements. This enables Soft2bet to validate the authenticity of their customers’ real identity efficiently so users can start using the gaming platform faster.
Users simply take a photo of their government-issued identity document (ID) and a selfie. Onfido first checks that the ID is genuine and not fraudulent, and then matches it to the user’s face. This ensures the person presenting the identity is its legitimate owner and is physically present. Users are able to verify their identity and onboard safely through a simple and user-friendly online experience.
This follows Soft2Bet’s approval for the Malta Gaming Licence for its Frumzi casino, allowing it to launch to customers across MGA markets, with a selection of slots, live casino and jackpot games.
Boris Chaikin, CEO at Soft2Bet said: “The partnership provides the identity verification technology and expertise Soft2Bet needs to continue delivering an industry-leading offering. We have big plans so we are delighted Onfido could help ensure our future success through their ground-breaking fraud detection solution.
“It enables us to automate a great deal of our KYC process and integrating it into our existing technology is proving to be seamless, which makes onboarding much smoother for our customers.”
“Consumers should no longer have to choose between fast digital onboarding and security,” said Ed Ackerman, Director of Alliances and Partnerships at Onfido. “In today’s digital age, users should be able to easily prove their real identity while knowing it is secure when applying for online services, which is why we’re pleased to be partnering with Soft2Bet. Delivering access to digital services with safety and user experience at the forefront.”

155.io flips the script again with Coin Flip game release
Reading Time: < 1 minute
155.io, the live content studio built for a mobile-first world, has turned convention on its head with the launch of Coin Flip, a machine-run coin-flipping game.
Tossing coins is as old as time as a means to settle football matches, pub games, and everyday decisions – now 155.io has transformed that timeless ritual into a live, 24/7 digital betting experience.
Central to Coin Flip is a real coin-flipping machine, powered by a precision solenoid and monitored by an overhead camera. Every coin flip is analysed by machine learning and AI systems that record and validate results in real time, feeding the outcome directly into a secure game engine. All players have to do is correctly pick heads or tails – one side features the U.S. President and the other the American flag.
Coin Flip runs continuously, 24 hours a day, offering the world’s simplest, fastest, and totally transparent betting experience.
155.io Founder and CEO Sam Jones commented: “Tossing coins is something humans have done for millennia to decide anything from fixtures to fiefdoms. Coin Flip modernises that ancient ritual, in true 155 style, and adds a competitive layer that makes it seriously entertaining.”

2025 Global Regulatory Awards
Casino Guru wins Outstanding Contribution to Safer Gambling at 2025 Global Regulatory Awards
Reading Time: 2 minutes
Casino Guru is proud and pleased to have been awarded the “Outstanding Contribution to Safer Gambling” at the 2025 Global Regulatory Awards, celebrating the company’s longstanding tradition in bringing a safe, transparent, and responsible experience to players.
The distinction marks the latest accolade Casino Guru has won in the Responsible Gambling field, further highlighting the company’s ethos and philosophy for nurturing a sustainable and accountable industry where players are protected.
Commenting on the achievement, Šimon Vincze, the Sustainable & Safer Gambling Lead at Casino Guru, said: “Speaking on behalf of our entire team, I am humbled to accept this award, which is the latest distinction in Casino Guru’s unflagging efforts to make gambling safer and more transparent. Receiving this distinction from Vixio’s 2025 Global Regulatory Awards, and against a field of more companies that have dedicated efforts to making the industry more responsible, is an honor that motivates us to work harder and contribute to the collective effort.”
Casino Guru’s RG and fair efforts are captured in the very essence of what the company does. The company’s Safety Index has become a carefully curated benchmark that reviews and assigns casino ratings based on player preferences and interactions, prioritizing transparency above all else.
Casino Guru has launched multiple projects to this end, including the Casino Guru Academy, designed to educate industry professionals about the pillars of responsible, fair, and sustainable gambling. Apart from these, the company has also launched the Complaint Resolution Center, similarly intended to help players on their journey in iGaming.
The center has returned over $52 million as of today. Vincze himself has played a crucial role in the promotion of RG and raising awareness about the terminology associated with this, helping it become a more widely understood phenomenon in the industry rather than a tick box companies ought to complete, an effort he has spearheaded through the Global Self-Exclusion Initiative and the Safer Gambling Talks podcast.
Not least, Casino Guru has launched the Casino Guru Awards, a project centered around recognizing and celebrating the most successful and responsible companies in iGaming. The project has grown and is heading into its fourth year with new categories, sponsors, judges, and an expanding format.
All of these achievements have collectively served as the basis of Casino Guru winning this year’s Outstanding Contribution to Safer Gambling distinction.
