Bespot Wins Bronze at SBC Europe Awards 2026
We are thrilled to announce that Bespot has been awarded a Bronze Award in the prestigious “Compliance and KYC Partner of the Year” category at the SBC Europe Awards 2026, one of the highly demanded recognition programmes in the iGaming, betting, and digital technology landscape.
This achievement is more than a trophy on a shelf. It is a powerful validation of Bespot’s commitment to building smarter, safer, and more scalable compliance infrastructure for the platforms that power modern digital commerce. Bespot’s compliance solution and fraud detection technology are redefining what regulatory compliance looks like in practice.
The SBC Europe Awards attract hundreds of entries from the most innovative companies in the industry each year. Being recognised, let alone awarded, in the Compliance and KYC category places Bespot alongside the ranks of regulation technology and compliance-focused technology providers.
For our team, our partners, and most importantly, our clients, this Bespot Bronze Award represents something deeply meaningful: the industry sees what we have been building, and it agrees that it matters.
What Are the SBC Europe Awards 2026?
The SBC Europe Awards represent the gold standard of industry recognition across sports betting, iGaming, and technology sectors. Organised annually by SBC, the awards evaluate hundreds of entries across dozens of categories, from operator excellence and payment innovation to, critically, regulatory compliance and KYC technology.
The Compliance and KYC Partner of the Year category carries exceptional prestige. As European regulators tighten jurisdictional requirements and operators face increasing scrutiny over player verification, the ability to deliver accurate, scalable, and privacy-compliant KYC infrastructure has become a strategic priority across the entire digital gaming and fintech ecosystem.
A Bronze Award in this category is not handed to companies that simply meet the standard. It goes to those actively raising it, and that is exactly what Bespot has been doing.
Bespot’s Winning Solution: Revolutionizing Compliance
Bespot’s award-winning platform is built around a core insight: location is the foundation of compliant digital gaming, and most providers are getting it wrong.
While legacy solutions rely on standard GPS and basic IP verification, Bespot’s proprietary hybrid-signal model synthesises Wi-Fi, BLE, and cellular triangulation to deliver centimetre-level accuracy. This is not an incremental improvement. It is a fundamentally different approach to jurisdictional verification.
Key capabilities recognised by the SBC Europe Awards judges:
- Anti-Spoofing Engine: Real-time device fingerprinting that detects GPS emulators, VPN masking, and proxy tuning, reducing multi-account fraud and bonus abuse for integrated partners within the first four months of deployment.
- Location Trust Score: A proprietary risk signal that enables operators to automate high-risk compliance decisions, dramatically reducing manual review overhead while maintaining 100% jurisdictional accuracy across all EU markets.
- Bespot holds Triple ISO Certification (9001, 14001, 27001), has passed the GLI Control Assessment for the strictest global gaming jurisdictions, and operates as an AWS Qualified Software Partner, ensuring enterprise-grade encryption, data residency compliance, and cloud scalability at any volume.
Why This Bronze Award Matters for Our Clients
For Bespot’s clients, spanning iGaming operators, fintech platforms, payment providers, and game studios, this recognition translates directly into confidence.
In iGaming and sports betting, operators rely on Bespot to navigate complex EU regulatory frameworks with zero tolerance for jurisdictional error. The platform’s ability to verify physical presence in licensed retail betting zones has redefined what privacy-first compliance looks like in practice.
In fintech and payments, where AML obligations and cross-border verification requirements are intensifying, Bespot’s Location Trust Score provides a decisive fraud signal that integrates directly into existing risk engines, reducing false positives and accelerating legitimate user onboarding.
For game studios and platform operators, Bespot’s behavioural analytics layer delivers C-level insights that go beyond blocking: they illuminate player patterns, optimise retention strategies, and ensure that compliance infrastructure actively contributes to revenue performance, not just risk mitigation.
