Yolo247 KYC & AML Policy
Yolo247 operates under a strict Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) framework designed to protect account holders and uphold the integrity of the platform. These measures are in place to ensure that all transactions are legitimate, all users are who they claim to be, and the platform remains free from financial crime. For users in India, compliance with these standards is a condition of access and continued use of the platform.
Purpose of KYC & AML
Yolo247 applies KYC and AML procedures to verify the identity of each account holder, prevent fraudulent activity, and combat financial crime across all platform operations. These procedures serve as the foundation for maintaining a secure and legally compliant environment.
Key Guarantees for Users
- Fair play: All users operate under the same verified conditions, reducing the risk of manipulation or abuse.
- User safety: Personal data and financial information are handled with strict confidentiality and security measures.
- Transparency: Users are informed of the verification requirements that apply to their accounts.
- Regulatory compliance: The platform fulfils all applicable regulatory requirements related to identity verification and financial oversight.
- Account protection: Verification procedures reduce the risk of unauthorised access or misuse of user accounts.
KYC Requirements
Every new user on Yolo247 is required to complete identity verification before accessing certain platform features, processing withdrawals, or participating in higher-value transactions. Document submission is a mandatory step in the ID verification process and must be completed accurately.
Documents That May Be Requested
- Government-issued photo identification: A valid national ID, passport, voter ID, or driving licence that confirms the user’s full legal name and date of birth.
- Proof of address: A recent utility bill, bank statement, or official correspondence that confirms the user’s current residential address.
- Payment method ownership confirmation: Evidence that the payment instrument being used belongs to the registered account holder, such as a bank statement or screenshot of a verified wallet.
- Source of funds documentation: In certain cases, users may be asked to provide supporting documents that clarify the origin of deposited funds.
- Additional identity documents: If initial document submission is inconclusive, supplementary personal data may be requested to complete the verification process.
AML Measures
Yolo247 maintains a comprehensive set of controls to prevent money laundering, counter-terrorism financing, and other forms of illegal financial activity on the platform. These controls are applied consistently across all user accounts and transaction types.
AML Controls in Place
- Transaction monitoring: All deposits, withdrawals, and in-platform transfers are subject to continuous monitoring to detect irregular patterns.
- Automated detection rules: System-level alerts are triggered by predefined thresholds associated with suspicious activity, allowing for rapid review.
- Enhanced due diligence: Users identified as high-risk through risk scoring processes are subject to additional verification and closer oversight.
- Review of large or unusual transfers: Any transaction that falls outside of normal usage patterns is flagged for manual review by the compliance team.
- Risk scoring: Each account is assigned a risk profile based on activity, deposit behaviour, and verification status, which informs the level of scrutiny applied.
- Sanctions and PEP screening: All users are screened against international sanctions lists and politically exposed persons (PEP) databases as part of the onboarding and ongoing monitoring process.
- Reporting obligations: Where suspicious activity meets the threshold for mandatory disclosure, the platform reports to the relevant competent authorities in accordance with applicable law.
Prohibited Activities
Yolo247 enforces strict platform restrictions to support the integrity of its KYC and AML obligations, and any conduct that undermines these controls is prohibited. Users found in violation of these restrictions are subject to immediate enforcement action.
Actions That Are Not Permitted
- Multi-accounting: Creating or operating more than one account per individual is strictly prohibited and constitutes a breach of platform terms.
- Forged or stolen documents: Submission of falsified, altered, or stolen identification documents during the ID verification or document submission process is a serious violation.
- Laundering attempts: Using the platform to layer, place, or integrate funds connected to illegal activity is prohibited under all circumstances.
- System manipulation: Any attempt to exploit platform systems, processes, or controls in a manner that circumvents security measures or compliance checks is forbidden.
- Sharing or selling account access: Transferring, selling, or otherwise granting another individual access to a registered account is not permitted.
- Third-party payment instruments: Using payment methods that are not registered in the account holder’s own name is prohibited to prevent identity misrepresentation.
- Identity misrepresentation: Providing false personal data, whether at registration or during any subsequent verification request, is a direct violation of KYC obligations.
Consequences of Non-Compliance
Violations of the KYC and AML policy trigger enforcement measures that are applied proportionately based on the nature and severity of the breach. Users who fail to comply with verification requirements or engage in prohibited conduct may face temporary or permanent account suspension, freezing or confiscation of funds linked to suspicious activity, cancellation of bets or winnings obtained through non-compliant behaviour, and reporting to competent authorities where applicable under Indian law or international regulatory frameworks.
User Responsibilities
Each account holder on Yolo247 is personally responsible for providing accurate and up-to-date personal data at all times, including during registration and any subsequent request for updated information. Users must complete the ID verification process within the timeframes communicated by the platform, as failure to do so may result in restricted access to account features. All requests for additional document submission must be responded to promptly and in good faith, supplying genuine and verifiable information. Users are required to conduct all deposits, withdrawals, and transfers exclusively through payment methods registered in their own name, in compliance with account protection and AML standards. Any suspicious activity observed on an account or linked to a transaction must be reported to the platform without delay, to support the ongoing monitoring and user safety efforts of the compliance team.
Fair Play and Transparency
Yolo247 is committed to maintaining fair play and full transparency across all platform operations, ensuring that every user participates in a safe and compliant environment. These principles guide the platform’s approach to KYC, AML, and user relations at every level.
Principles Upheld by the Platform

- Confidentiality and protection of personal data: User information collected during the verification process is stored and processed securely, and is not shared beyond what is required by law or compliance obligations.

- Prevention of manipulation and unfair conduct: Security measures are in place to detect and respond to any attempt to gain an unfair advantage or exploit platform processes.
- User support on safety matters: Account holders can contact the platform for guidance on verification requirements, account security, and compliance-related concerns.
