CSGOEmpire Deploys Shufti to Streamline Identity Verification

London, UK – June 28, 2022 – Shufti, an innovator in identity verification solutions, today announced that CSGOEmpire, one of the earliest Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CSGO) skin gambling operators, successfully deployed Shufti to deliver a secure, seamless and automated identity verification process to onboard new clients. By leveraging Shufti’s Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti Money Laundering (AML) Identity Verification (IDV) solutions, CSGOEmpire has been able to automate its new customer verification process, saving hundreds of man-hours while also ensuring regulatory compliance and offering customers a fast and secure customer experience.

CSGOEmpire sought a pragmatic and automated solution to provide accurate and rapid IDV that could help streamline internal processes and enhance the customer experience. Prior to integrating Shufti, CSGOEmpire used a manual IDV process that required hours of employee labour and resulted in long customer wait times for service. CSGOEmpire selected Shufti based on its robust platform and enhanced automation capabilities that helped CSGOEmpire significantly reduce time spent on development and operations. 

Deployed in under a month, Shufti allowed CSGOEmpire to quickly migrate its KYC system with no impact on the user experience and significantly reduce manual intervention in the KYC process. Shufti allows CSGOEmpire to remain compliant while enabling their customers to game faster. 

“Evolving global regulatory requirements have highlighted the need for robust AML and KYC solutions in the online gaming sector. Our previous systems required substantial human intervention and manual entry, and we recognized that we needed an automated IDV solution that was highly accurate and could seamlessly integrate with our existing systems,” said Ale Focardi, CMO at CSGOEmpire. “Shufti’s KYC and AML systems presented a solution that quickly integrated with our existing on-premise systems and allowed us to exceed regulatory requirements, quickly scale to meet customer demand and reduce time-intensive manual work to ensure a safe and secure gaming experience.”

“KYC and AML regulations are complex and continuously evolving, and businesses across verticals realize they need fast, accurate and compliant IDV solutions that deliver a seamless customer experience and offer the flexibility and scalability to expand with their business. As CSGOEmpire continues its rapid growth, Shufti’s AI-powered IDV solutions will enable it to verify and onboard new customers in mere seconds and ensure regulatory compliance,” said Victor Fredung at Shufti.
