EveryMatrix has launched Bonus Guardian, a next-generation AI-powered tool designed to help iGaming operators identify and prevent bonus abuse – one of the industry’s most damaging and rapidly-evolving fraud types.

Developed as part of EveryMatrix’s BonusEngine and EngageSuite stack, Bonus Guardian allows operators to maximise ROI on marketing spend by detecting fraudulent player behaviour before it impacts margins.

The solution uses AI and machine learning to continuously analyse player activity, adapt to new abuse tactics, and apply role-based responses such as bonus exclusion and withdrawal holds.

This ensures legitimate players continue to enjoy a seamless experience without restrictions and limitations, while abusers are stopped in their tracks.

Bonus abuse accounts for more than 63% of all detected fraud according to recent industry data. Fraudsters are increasingly using AI, automation, and synthetic identities to exploit promotional offers, while traditional, rule-based systems have struggled to keep pace.

Operators must also maintain friction-free onboarding and engaging rewards to stay competitive.

Bonus Guardian addresses this directly, offering a context-aware solution that can be integrated with operators’ systems, such as payment processing and player account. Unlike generic anti-fraud platforms, it is designed specifically for bonus abuse scenarios.

It continuously learns from real-time player data, reducing manual workload and false positives, helping operators:

• Prevent revenue loss by flagging and stopping bonus abuse early
• Improve segmentation accuracy and player lifetime value
• Reduce operational friction with intelligent, role-based fraud controls
• Futureproof operations against evolving fraud mechanisms such as deepfakes, AI-generated accounts, and coordinated abuse rings

Stian Enger, Head of Casino, EveryMatrix, said: “Everyone in iGaming knows about the battle between fraudsters and anti-fraud prevention tools. Each side wants to get ahead of the other, but with Bonus Guardian, we strongly believe we have a definite edge.

“Bonus Guardian is not just another fraud filter. It is a living shield that adapts to everything that is thrown at it thanks to the power of AI.”
