Pin-Up KYC & AML Policy
Pin-Up operates under Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering/Counter-Terrorism Financing (AML/CFT) standards applicable in Bangladesh to verify users and deter financial crime. These measures support identity check, account protection, and responsible gaming, while meeting regulatory requirements and reporting obligations set by the Bangladesh Financial Intelligence Unit (BFIU). Compliance aligns with the Money Laundering Prevention Act, 2012 (as amended), the Anti-Terrorism Act, 2009, and BFIU directives, and covers how personal data is handled during ID verification and document submission.
Purpose of KYC & AML
KYC and AML controls are applied to verify identity, prevent fraud, and combat money laundering and terrorist financing across the platform. The framework protects user safety and promotes fair play and transparency.
- Reliable identity check of each account holder
- Security measures and account protection
- Transparent handling of personal data and document submission
- Compliance under Bangladeshi regulatory requirements
- Detection and response to suspicious activity
- Support for responsible gaming
KYC Requirements
Every new user must complete ID verification before accessing full services or processing withdrawals. Additional checks may be requested to confirm information remains accurate.
- Government-issued photo identification (valid and unaltered)
- Proof of residential address (recent and legible)
- Payment method ownership confirmation by the account holder
- Source-of-funds and source-of-wealth details in higher-risk cases

AML Measures
Pin-Up implements AML/CFT controls to prevent money laundering, terrorist financing, and other illegal activity. Controls operate continuously through automated and manual transaction monitoring.

Prohibited Activities
To support KYC and AML controls, certain behaviours are restricted on the platform. Breaches may result in enforcement.
- Creating or operating multiple accounts for the same person
- Using forged, altered, or stolen documents during identity check or document submission

Consequences of Non-Compliance

Consequences may include 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.
User Responsibilities
Users are responsible for providing accurate and updated personal data and completing verification promptly. All requested information and additional documents must be submitted within the specified timeframes so that ID verification can be finalised. Only payment instruments owned and controlled by the account holder may be used for deposits and withdrawals. Any changes that affect registration details, address, or payment information must be reported together with supporting documentation. Users should promptly report suspicious activity to customer support so that security measures can be applied without delay.
