Vancouver-based GeoComply has launched a unified identity platform for Brazil, combining KYC verification, fraud detection, and geolocation compliance into a single system designed for the country’s newly regulated iGaming market.
Brazil has recently moved to regulate its fast-growing online betting industry, creating a significant opportunity for operators while introducing complex compliance and identity verification requirements.
GeoComply says its new platform is designed to help operators manage those challenges through a single infrastructure rather than integrating multiple vendors for identity verification, fraud prevention, and location compliance.
“Brazil is one of the most complex and fast-moving regulated markets in the world, and operators there are dealing with challenges that off-the-shelf solutions simply aren’t built for,” said GeoComply CEO Kip Levin.

“We’ve taken the same approach that has delivered industry-leading pass rates across more than 30 jurisdictions and applied it to Brazil, creating a single platform that solves KYC, fraud, and compliance together.”
At the core of the platform is a managed KYC “waterfall” delivered through one endpoint. Instead of stitching together fragmented onboarding systems, operators can access Brazilian identity data sources through a single identity infrastructure designed to streamline player verification.
The platform supports document-free registration flows using CPF validation, Brazil’s national taxpayer identification system, allowing legitimate players to register more quickly while helping operators reduce manual review and operational complexity.
GeoComply says the approach mirrors identity systems it has deployed in other regulated markets, where pass rates have exceeded 95% in U.S. jurisdictions and more than 90% in the United Kingdom.
Beyond onboarding, the platform applies device, location, and behavioural intelligence throughout the player lifecycle to detect fraud and suspicious activity without disrupting legitimate users.
Machine learning models trained for the Brazilian market analyze device manipulation, high-risk location activity, and linked accounts in real time while supporting ongoing AML monitoring requirements.
According to GeoComply, the system delivers geolocation pass rates of up to 99.7% and 99.999% uptime in regulated environments.
“As we grow internationally, we know we can trust GeoComply to deliver excellent results and act as a strategic partner,” said George Moschetas, Director of Product at Kaizen Gaming, the parent company of Betano.
GeoComply says it will continue expanding its investment in Brazil as the country’s newly regulated betting market develops.
