This Anti-Money Laundering and Know Your Customer Policy ("Policy") sets out the obligations and procedures applied by Winbeast Casino, operated at wins-beast.nl, to detect, prevent, and report financial crime, money laundering, terrorist financing, and related illegal activity. All registered players and prospective players are required to read, understand, and comply with this Policy as a condition of using wins-beast.nl.
Winbeast is committed to operating a safe, transparent, and legally compliant gaming environment. As an online casino offering real-money gambling services, Winbeast recognises that it could be used—deliberately or otherwise—as a vehicle for money laundering, fraud, or the financing of criminal activity. This Policy exists to ensure that such misuse is identified and prevented.
The objectives of this Policy are to:
This Policy applies to every player account opened on wins-beast.nl, regardless of the deposit method used, the currency in which the player transacts, or the volume of activity on the account.
Winbeast is operated under an international iGaming licence and adheres to internationally recognised anti-money laundering frameworks, including the recommendations of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) and relevant provisions of the European Union's Anti-Money Laundering Directives (AMLDs) as adopted into applicable national and international standards. Winbeast complies with all obligations imposed by its licensing authority in respect of AML, KYC, customer due diligence (CDD), and suspicious activity reporting.
Where a player is located in or transacts from a jurisdiction with its own specific AML legislation, Winbeast will apply the higher of its internal standards and any applicable local requirements.
Money laundering is the process by which the proceeds of criminal activity are disguised to appear as legitimate funds. It typically occurs in three stages:
Online casinos are recognised as a potential vehicle for all three stages, and Winbeast's controls are designed to interrupt this process at every point.
Every individual who opens an account on wins-beast.nl must provide accurate, complete, and truthful information at the point of registration. Winbeast collects, at minimum, the following data at registration:
Winbeast reserves the right to request formal documentary verification of any or all of the above information at any point during the account lifecycle. Verification may be requested before the first withdrawal, upon reaching defined deposit or transaction thresholds, whenever account activity triggers an internal risk flag, or at the discretion of Winbeast's compliance team.
When a verification request is raised, the player will be asked to submit one or more of the following documents depending on what is required:
Documents must be submitted in clear, unaltered, full-colour scans or photographs. Winbeast will not accept documents that are blurred, cropped, or appear to have been digitally manipulated. All documents must be in date and must match the information provided at registration exactly.
Once a KYC request is issued, the player is expected to respond within a reasonable timeframe as specified in the request notification. If documents are not submitted within this period, Winbeast reserves the right to suspend withdrawal processing, restrict account functionality, or close the account in accordance with its terms and conditions. Winbeast will not release any withdrawal—regardless of amount—until all required KYC checks have been satisfied.
KYC is not a one-time process. Winbeast conducts ongoing monitoring of all player accounts. Additional documentation may be requested at any time if:
Standard CDD is applied to all players and covers the collection and verification of identity, address, and payment method documentation as described in Section 4. It also encompasses an assessment of the player's expected level of activity and the plausibility of the funds they intend to use for gambling.
Enhanced due diligence is applied to players who present a higher level of risk. EDD may be triggered by, but is not limited to, the following:
Under EDD, Winbeast may request:
Winbeast's compliance team will assess all EDD submissions individually and may request further information if the documents provided are insufficient to satisfy the required standard of verification.
A Politically Exposed Person is an individual who holds or has held a prominent public function, or who is a close family member or known associate of such a person. PEPs are considered higher-risk customers by virtue of their potential exposure to bribery and corruption. Winbeast screens all players against PEP databases and applies enhanced due diligence automatically to any player identified as a PEP or PEP-adjacent individual. Winbeast reserves the right to decline or close accounts from PEPs where the risk cannot be adequately mitigated.
All players are screened against relevant international sanctions lists, including those maintained by the United Nations, the European Union, and other competent authorities. Players found to be subject to financial sanctions will have their accounts suspended immediately and will not be permitted to deposit, play, or withdraw. Any funds held in sanctioned accounts will be dealt with in accordance with applicable legal obligations.
Winbeast operates a strict policy requiring that withdrawal funds are returned to the same source from which they were deposited. A player who deposits using a Visa card, for example, must withdraw to the same Visa card. A player who deposits using Bitcoin (BTC) must withdraw to the same BTC wallet address. This requirement applies across all accepted payment methods, including Mastercard, iDEAL, bank transfer, Ethereum (ETH), Litecoin (LTC), and USDT.
No third-party payments are permitted under any circumstances. Winbeast will not process a withdrawal to a payment method, account, or wallet that is not registered in the player's own name. Any attempt to direct funds to a third-party account will be treated as a red flag and may result in account suspension, investigation, and reporting to the relevant authorities.
The following payment methods are available for deposits at wins-beast.nl but cannot be used as withdrawal destinations: iDEAL, Paysafecard, Revolut, and Apple Pay. Where a player has used these methods to deposit, Winbeast will require the player to provide an alternative eligible withdrawal method (such as a bank transfer or cryptocurrency wallet) that is verified in the player's name before a withdrawal can be processed.
Winbeast accepts deposits and withdrawals in Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Litecoin (LTC), and Tether (USDT). Cryptocurrency transactions carry a higher inherent risk of anonymity and are subject to additional scrutiny under this Policy. Players depositing or withdrawing via cryptocurrency may be required to:
Winbeast does not accept cryptocurrency deposits from mixing services, privacy coins, or any wallet address that has been flagged in connection with illicit activity by recognised blockchain analytics tools.
Winbeast applies the following withdrawal limits to all standard accounts:
| Limit Type | Standard Account | VIP Account |
|---|---|---|
| Weekly Withdrawal Limit | €10,000 | Higher (as agreed) |
| Monthly Withdrawal Limit | €20,000 | Higher (as agreed) |
| Daily Win Cap | €50,000 | €100,000 |
| Large Win Payment | Wins over €30,000 may be paid in monthly instalments of up to €30,000 | |
These limits exist not only for operational reasons but also as an AML control measure. Players who regularly approach or reach these limits may be subject to additional review and enhanced due diligence.
Winbeast employs automated and manual transaction monitoring systems to review account activity on a continuous basis. The monitoring programme is designed to identify patterns and behaviours that may indicate money laundering, fraud, or other financial crime. Factors considered include, but are not limited to:
The following behaviours are considered red flags and will trigger an internal review:
Where Winbeast's compliance team concludes that a transaction or series of transactions may involve money laundering, fraud, or the financing of terrorism, it will file a Suspicious Activity Report (SAR) or equivalent report with the relevant competent authority in accordance with applicable law. Winbeast is legally prohibited from informing the player concerned that a report has been filed ("tipping off"). Accordingly, Winbeast may delay, suspend, or decline a transaction without disclosing the reason to the player where doing so would constitute tipping off.
Winbeast reserves the right to suspend or close any player account, and to withhold any funds held therein pending investigation, in the following circumstances:
Where an account is suspended or closed for AML or KYC reasons, funds may be held indefinitely pending the outcome of any investigation or legal proceedings. Winbeast will not be liable to the player for any losses arising from a lawful account suspension carried out in accordance with this Policy.
Winbeast's welcome package, weekly promotions, and loyalty programme are made available exclusively to genuine players engaging in legitimate gambling activity. Winbeast applies AML controls specifically to bonus-related activity and monitors for the following:
Where bonus abuse is detected, Winbeast will void the relevant bonuses and any associated winnings, and may close the account without notice. Loyalty programme points, cashback, and VIP-tier benefits may also be forfeited where they have been accrued through activity that does not represent genuine gambling.
Every player on wins-beast.nl accepts the following obligations by opening and using an account:
Any player who becomes aware that their account has been used without their authorisation should contact Winbeast immediately via 24/7 Live Chat or by email at [email protected].
All personal data and documents collected by Winbeast in connection with KYC and AML procedures are processed in accordance with applicable data protection legislation. Such information will be used solely for the purposes of identity verification, regulatory compliance, fraud prevention, and the fulfilment of any legal obligations to report to competent authorities.
Winbeast will retain KYC documentation and transaction records for a minimum period as required by applicable law (typically five years from the end of the account relationship, or such longer period as may be required by a competent authority). Data will not be sold or shared with third parties except where required by law or with the express consent of the player.
Players have the right to request access to the personal data held about them, subject to any limitations imposed by applicable law or Winbeast's legal obligations in respect of ongoing investigations.
Winbeast's responsible gambling commitments and its AML obligations are complementary. Tools that allow players to manage their gambling activity — including deposit limits, self-exclusion, and account cooling-off periods — also serve as controls that limit the potential for Winbeast to be used as a vehicle for financial crime. Players who exhibit patterns of excessive or erratic gambling behaviour may also be subject to enhanced scrutiny under this Policy, as such patterns can be consistent with problem gambling or, in certain circumstances, with the layering stage of money laundering.
Players who have concerns about their own gambling behaviour are encouraged to contact Winbeast's support team via 24/7 Live Chat or at [email protected]. Further information on responsible gambling tools available on wins-beast.nl can be found in the Responsible Gambling section of the website.
Winbeast maintains internal AML and KYC controls that are reviewed and updated on a regular basis to reflect changes in applicable law, regulatory guidance, and the evolving risk landscape of online gambling. The compliance function at Winbeast is responsible for:
All staff who handle player accounts, process payments, or review compliance-related matters are trained to recognise money laundering typologies, identify red flags, and escalate concerns through the correct internal channels without alerting the player concerned.
If you have any questions about this Policy, or if you wish to understand more about the KYC process as it applies to your account, please contact the Winbeast compliance and support team through either of the following channels:
Winbeast aims to resolve all compliance-related queries promptly and transparently. Where a query relates to an active investigation or a matter that is subject to legal restrictions on disclosure, Winbeast will respond to the extent permitted by law.
Winbeast reserves the right to amend this AML/KYC Policy at any time to reflect changes in applicable law, regulatory requirements, or internal risk assessments. Material changes will be communicated to players by means of a notice on wins-beast.nl or by email to the address registered on the account. Continued use of wins-beast.nl following the publication of an updated Policy constitutes acceptance of the revised terms. Players who do not accept the updated Policy should cease using the site and contact [email protected] to discuss their account.
This Policy was last reviewed and published in 2025 and applies to all accounts active on wins-beast.nl from this date.
