EveryMatrix launches Bonus Guardian to stamp out bonus abuse with AI precision
Reading Time: < 1 minute
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.”

Slotegrator using AI tools to fight fraud, analyze performance, and smooth payments
When everyone has access to AI, the future belongs to those who use it strategically. Slotegrator’s updated platform has a suite of AI-powered tools that do the heavy lifting so clients can focus on strategy and business development.
Suppliers are racing to incorporate AI features. Instead of just keeping up with the hype, Slotegrator updated its platform with a suite of AI tools that help its clients by doing most of the heavy lifting and handling tasks that require large amounts of processing power. The company’s platform software now features AI tools for fighting fraud, analyzing essential business data, and reducing payment friction.
Fraud is a major concern for online casino operators, particularly when it comes to bonus abuse.
Bonus abusers are constantly developing new techniques and tactics to defraud casinos — even more so now that they have access to AI tools. Good deepfakes can potentially even pass liveness checks, and synthetic IDs (fake IDs made of real parts) are difficult to spot.
Slotegrator’s Anti-fraud module has an AI assistant to help operators combat fraud. The assistant provides summaries of real-time situations with just the touch of a button. Operators choose from one of three preset questions: 1. What is the overall risk situation? 2. Which risk categories are currently the most critical? And 3. What should be prioritized right now?
When they choose one of them, the assistant automatically analyzes the relevant data, yields structured conclusions, and makes recommendations for next steps. After you’ve made a selection, the AI assistant instantly processes dashboard metrics and provides a brief summary. The assistant works at both the project and individual level.
“As artificial intelligence becomes commonplace, the companies that integrate AI into core aspects of their business will be the ones that get ahead,” explains Slotegrator COO Olga Ivanchik. “AI is capable of more than automation. Incorporating AI at a strategic level, making it a core part of the business architecture, is the only way to stay competitive in the long run.”
Slotegrator’s platform also has an AI business intelligence module.
The AI BI module not only tracks KPIs such as GGR, unique players, active players, average bet sum, average withdrawal sum, average FD sum, profitability, CPR, and others, but filters and presents them for the chosen period and the particular project. All the data are displayed in convenient and clear tables and diagrams and can be exported as CSV and XLS files for convenience.
Users can segment players and apply bulk actions, depending on whether they need to be encouraged with a bonus or blocked due to risky behavior. Additionally, the module can filter players by affiliate partner ID to see which partner sent them.
Payments always present complex issues. Slotegrator’s Moneygrator simplifies payments by providing a unified infrastructure for managing payment providers in different GEOs.
But the Moneygrator AI bot takes the service to a new level.
The Moneygrator AI Bot automatically processes up to 80% of standard requests that previously required the involvement of an account manager. Instead of studying documentation or waiting for a response, teams receive structured data in minutes, significantly accelerating time-to-market.

21.com launches online casino and sportsbook led by ex-BetVictor CEO Michael Carlton
21.com has launched as an online casino and sportsbook, naming industry veteran Michael Carlton as Founder & CEO, the company said on 16 June 2026.
The operator said it is targeting a range of global jurisdictions and plans to differentiate through a “modern technology stack” and “AI-centric operations.” It did not disclose target markets, licensing status, launch territories, or product partners.
Carlton previously served 13 years at EY as a Chartered Accountant before entering gaming in 1997, according to the company. He later spent 17 years as CEO of BetVictor and has since invested in betting and gaming companies.
Carlton said 21.com is being built without legacy platform constraints. “Having started in the gaming industry prior to the launch of the internet and then having the privilege of being involved as the industry evolved and adapted to the opportunities, there is now a further revolution occurring with the power created by embracing AI helping us to move faster and tailor personalised experience to the player.
“One of 21.com’s greatest strengths is that it is being developed for the current market, rather than an after-thought adaptation of an existing one. Many operators have been around for a long time and continue to be defined by legacy platforms and pre-crypto payment customer journeys that existed long before the modern technical tools that exist now became a reality. 21.com has embraced AI to deliver unparalleled customer experiences.
“With a team of industry leading experts with the motivation and ability to achieve our goals but without any legacy systems, 21.com is able to take advantage of new technologies to become a market leader in the gaming industry”.
The company also set aggressive commercial targets. “21.com will be one of the top three operators in every market it operates and in the world within two years,” Carlton said.
