Full-service compliance provider Maxima Compliance has launched Maxima DataVault, a proprietary multi-jurisdictional “SAFE” solution through which operators will be able to comply with the requirements of several European regulated markets.

Maxima DataVault platform allows operators and suppliers to send raw XML or JSON data that Maxima adapts into the required regulators’ format in order to record and store gambling transactions.

Via an easy-to-use customer console, users can retrieve the latest API documentation, transparent spend and invoices, the amount of data transferred, and a variety of usage reports.

The service launches for regulated jurisdictions including the Netherlands, Germany, Denmark, Romania, Greece, Portugal and Spain.

Maxima DataVault comes with free support for system certification, and the option for additional support with set-up – particularly useful when entering new jurisdictions.

Antonio Zanghi, CEO of Maxima Compliance, said: “Maxima DataVault is a state-of-the-art technology platform designed to fit all types of clients, from the small operator to the largest. Its multi-jurisdictional approach enables operators to conduct a single integration for multiple jurisdictions as well as providing a very clear and simple pricing model, saving time and money.

“With a 99.8 percent uptime guaranteed, analytics to ensure consistency of the data and dedicated technical account management team, Maxima DataVault brings peace of mind to an area we know causes concern for many operators.”

Maxima DataVault is the latest product from Maxima Compliance. In March, the provider announced the launch of Maxima Quality Assurance, a new QA service to help suppliers eliminate the risk of software or compliance issues and delays as games are certified.

And last year saw the creation of Complitech, the world’s first technical compliance database for the global gaming industry.

Gaming Innovation Group Inc. (GiG), has signed an agreement with Malta based gaming company, Pixelbet Digital Ltd. for its automated affiliate marketing compliance screening tool, GiG Comply.

GiG Comply is a self-service marketing compliance solution, which enables operators to set-up their own criteria and checklist parameters to scan and check affiliate websites for content including iGaming code red words, links and regulatory requirements across multiple jurisdictions. GiG Comply works by using its rules engine to analyse real snapshots from affiliates’ campaigns and provides operators with the promotional content that is being used in their brands’ promotions.

GiG Comply will enable Pixelbet to set-up their own criteria and checklist parameters and can be tailored to cover any market-specific requirements, helping to ensure that they remain compliant in multiple jurisdictions. This will not only help Pixelbet to ensure they remain compliant and safeguard their licence but will also help them to achieve their mission to be the number one authentic and trusted esports sportsbook online.

Eirik Kristiansen, CEO of Pixelbet, said “We are excited to partner up with GiG through its market-leading GIG Comply software. This strong product fits perfectly with our current and future business objectives, enabling us to further improve how we manage our affiliate compliance operations. This partnership will help Pixelbet ensure that our affiliates can continue offering high quality experiences that are fully compliant with regional regulations and requirements.”

Jonas Warrer, CMO at GiG, said ‘“The growing demand for our compliance solution is a clear sign that we have created a solution that has become the go-to compliance tool within the iGaming industry. It’s great to see that new and ambitious companies such as Pixelbet value the importance of marketing compliance, we look forward to supporting them in their marketing compliance efforts with GiG Comply.”  

The Government of Macau has confirmed that Adriano Marques Ho will continue as the director of the Gaming Inspection and Co-ordination Bureau (DICJ) until 2023.

The extension will be effective from June 10, with the Office of the Secretary for Economy justifying the decision on Ho’s “management skills and professional experience”.
