Gentoo Media Announces the Rebrand of GiG Comply to Sitebee
Gentoo Media has announced the rebrand of its renowned GiG Comply platform into Sitebee – the advanced SaaS solution designed to elevate compliance automation and brand protection.
This rebrand follows Gentoo Media’s own recent rebrand and represents a significant step in the company’s mission to redefine how operators protect their brands and ensure regulatory compliance from the affiliate partners they work with in the fast-evolving iGaming industry.
“Sitebee is more than just a rebrand. It’s a renewed commitment to our partners and the industry. Compliance doesn’t stand still, and neither do we,” said Rasmus Bank Nielsen, Head of Sitebee.
Built for today’s challenges – and tomorrow’s opportunities
Sitebee builds upon the legacy of GiG Comply, but has been designed with the future of compliance in mind. The platform empowers iGaming operators to automate compliance monitoring, save time, reduce risks and gain deeper insights into their marketing and affiliate partnerships.
“Compliance is a moving target, and Sitebee is how businesses can stay ahead, not just keep up. Our solution helps brands navigate complex regulatory landscapes by monitoring thousands of web pages in real time to ensure adherence to laws across multiple jurisdictions,” said Rasmus Bank Nielsen, Head of Sitebee.
“With Sitebee, our clients gain insights that not only identify risks but also uncover new growth opportunities. Data is key, and we provide our clients with a clear picture of their affiliate landscape so they can act quickly and strategically,” added Rasmus Bank Nielsen.

Aviatrix lands in the Netherlands
Aviatrix, the award-winning crash game, has received its certification in the Netherlands, meaning Dutch players can enjoy the popular title for the first time.
The certification in the Netherlands opens up yet another important regulated market for Aviatrix, which was recently named ‘Game of the Year’ at the EGR Operator Awards 2024.
Gross gaming revenue in the Netherlands hit €1.39 billion in 2023, and is expected to continue to grow over the coming years.
Dutch operators will now be able to capture this growth via Aviatrix’s innovative title, which is proving hugely popular in regulated markets worldwide.
Anastasia Rimskaya, Chief Account Officer at Aviatrix, said: “The Netherlands has been on our radar for some time, so this is a big day for us here at Aviatrix. We can’t wait to see Dutch players enjoying the title, and we will be working closely with some very special partners in the Netherlands to ensure this game is widely available very soon.”
Part of what makes Aviatrix so successful is the constant updates to the game, which keeps it fresh and exciting for players.
This has included a full redesign with new, 3D assets, as well as a first-of-its-kind free bets function via in-game promo codes.

Spillemyndigheden: Anti-Money Laundering: Screening of Sanctions Lists
Gambling operators must comply with the EU’s sanctions regarding freezing of assets. Freezing of assets means that it is prohibited to make funds and assets directly or indirectly available to individuals who are subject to the EU’s sanctions.
Freezing of assets must take effect immediately when an individual, business or organisation is added to a list of sanctions. Consequently, a gambling operator must screen their costumers in accordance with the existing and updated lists.
The EU keeps several sanctions lists that are updated regularly. Therefore, the EU has created a database, EU Sanctions Map, which includes all current sanctions lists concerning anti-money laundering. The map can also be used to search across the lists. Individuals, businesses and organisations that are subject to a requirement for freezing of assets is marked with a frost symbol.
In addition to the individuals listed in the EU regulations, gambling operators are also obligated to ensure that the operator’s customers do not appear from the UN’s consolidated asset freeze list. The list is available on the Danish Business Authority’s website: UN’s freezing of assets list.
Gambling operators are responsible for ensuring that funds are not made available to a sanctioned individual – for example by paying out winnings. Please note that breaches of sanctions adopted by the EU or UN may be punishable by fine or imprisonment.
See more information on sanctions and asset freeze on the Danish Business Authority’s website, where a guide on freezing of assets is also available.
