It isn’t easy assembling a world-class compliance team in the igaming industry.
The demand for compliance expertise has outstripped the number of truly proficient compliance officers at a time when more markets are introducing regulation.
For slots providers looking to capitalise on the opportunities in these recently and soon-to-be regulated markets, there is often simply too much legwork for your compliance team to handle.
As a result, tough strategic decisions must be made. Perhaps you are sacrificing a move into the US so as to focus upon markets in Europe.
Equally, it becomes increasingly difficult, even for mid-to-large sized casino content providers, to stay ahead of the competition in multiple jurisdictions.
If you are a games studio watching the remarkable growth we are seeing in regulated jurisdictions around the world, from New Jersey, to Colombia, to a host of fast-growing European markets, finding solutions to these challenges should be your top priority.
Getting more from your compliance team
Given how tough it is to find and hire top-class compliance officers within the igaming space, it is critical that you optimise the output of your existing team.
This means providing them with the support and tools required to more efficiently do their job.
Complitech is one such tool.
Complitech is the gaming industry’s only product and technical compliance database.
It provides the latest requirements from more than 40 online gaming jurisdictions, and it is designed to simplify and speed up the process of rolling out your products in new markets.
A large share of compliance work is time-intensive and laborious. Complitech serves to smooth these processes and save your compliance officers’ valuable time.
For instance, pulling and translating technical compliance requirements from a new market is now a simple process, enabling users to download the requirements in a range of formats, sorting by product type, requirement type and jurisdiction.
Pro and Premium users of Complitech can go a step further, conducting automated gap analysis, comparing requirements between multiple jurisdictions.
Our research shows that Complitech users enter new regulated jurisdictions 60 percent faster than those pulling requirements manually.
This is a potentially market-defining difference when we are talking about share in newly-regulated jurisdictions.
