Paripesa enforces KYC and AML to verify identity, prevent fraud and combat financial crime on the platform. These controls uphold fair play and transparency for users in Nigeria.

• Fair play across betting and gaming services
• User safety through verified account holder status
• Transparency of rules, document submission and processes
• Compliance with regulatory requirements in Nigeria
• Security measures that protect funds and personal data

Every new user must complete identity verification before certain features become available. Document submission may be requested again during the account lifecycle to confirm the account holder’s details remain accurate.

• Government-issued photo ID for ID verification
• Proof of residential address showing full name and address
• Confirmation of payment-method ownership matching the account holder

Paripesa implements AML controls to prevent money laundering, terrorism financing and other illegal activity. Controls are risk-based and align with obligations to the Nigerian Financial Intelligence Unit and other competent bodies where applicable.

• Continuous transaction monitoring and review of activity patterns
• Automated detection rules to identify suspicious activity
• Enhanced due diligence for high-risk users, events or jurisdictions
• Independent reviews of large, unusual or rapid inflows and outflows
• Risk scoring that informs checks, limits and escalation
• Sanctions and PEP screening against relevant watchlists
• Timely reporting to authorities in line with legal reporting obligations

To support KYC and AML, the platform restricts behaviours that increase financial crime risk. Users are expected to operate only their own accounts and use payment instruments registered in their names.

• Opening or using multiple accounts to evade controls
• Submitting forged, altered or stolen documents
• Any attempt to launder funds or disguise source of funds
• Manipulating systems, odds, bonuses or gaming outcomes
• Sharing, selling or transferring account access to others
• Using third-party or anonymous payment instruments
• Misrepresenting identity or acting for an undisclosed third party

Breach of KYC or AML rules may lead to immediate intervention to protect the platform and users. Actions are proportionate to risk and in line with Nigerian law and licence conditions.

Temporary or permanent account suspension, freezing or confiscation of funds linked to suspicious activity, cancellation of bets or winnings, reporting to competent authorities where applicable.

Users must provide correct, current personal data and complete verification on time. Additional documents may be requested to re-confirm identity or payment ownership, and responses should be prompt. Only payment methods owned by the verified account holder may be used for deposits and withdrawals. Any suspicious activity noticed on an account should be reported without delay to customer support, and users should cooperate fully during any review.
