Achieving Compliance: Certifications That Cement Atlaslive’s Leadership
To meet Brazil’s rigorous technical standards, Atlaslive has secured all necessary certifications, including a GLI Certification against Brazilian regulation. These certifications underscore the platform’s unwavering commitment to fair play, security, and operational integrity.
In addition, Atlaslive has achieved ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification, a globally recognized standard that establishes stringent requirements for information security management systems (ISMS). This certification highlights Atlaslive’s ability to effectively manage risks related to data security while ensuring the highest levels of protection for user and partner information. This achievement reinforces that Atlaslive’s internal IT systems meet the strictest global standards, giving operators and players alike unparalleled confidence in the platform’s reliability.
Together, these certifications exemplify Atlaslive’s dedication to combining technical excellence, robust security, and operational integrity. They solidify the platform’s standing in the Brazilian market and affirm its readiness to exceed expectations in any regulatory environment.
Unmatched KYC Standards at Atlaslive
At Atlaslive, Know Your Customer (KYC) practices are not just about compliance — they are the cornerstone of building trust and ensuring seamless user experiences. With the increasing demand for secure, efficient onboarding in Brazil’s highly regulated market, Atlaslive has developed a KYC framework that combines innovation, speed, and reliability.
A key example of this is Atlaslive’s strategic partnership with Legitimuz, Brazil’s leading provider of identity verification and facial recognition technology, and CAF, a global provider of identity verification solutions. By integrating Legitimuz’s state-of-the-art tools, Atlaslive has enhanced its KYC processes, enabling clients to complete player registration up to 30% faster. Leveraging features such as 3D facial recognition, automated document verification, and real-time biometric analysis, Atlaslive Platform ensures players are verified within 30 seconds, dramatically reducing friction without compromising security.
Atlaslive leverages CAF’s Bet ID technology to address critical issues of fraud prevention, user verification, and compliance with regulatory frameworks. CAF’s solution integrates a powerful combination of technologies for identity verification, including robust document validation and AI-powered facial recognition. Bet ID not only facilitates identity verification but also offers continuous monitoring of user behavior, enabling the detection of suspicious activities such as account takeovers. Other key features include digital identity, data protection, and money laundering prevention.
Beyond speed, Atlaslive’s KYC solution is designed to address critical compliance challenges. Robust automated workflows reduce the risk of human error while flagging high-risk users for further review, adding an essential layer of fraud prevention.
Additionally, Atlaslive’s KYC practices are tailored for scalability. Whether an operator manages hundreds or millions of users, the platform seamlessly adapts to handle fluctuating demand, ensuring consistent performance during high-traffic periods.

By combining the latest technological innovations with a user-centric approach, Atlaslive sets the standard for KYC excellence in the Brazilian iGaming market and beyond.
Ensuring Compliance and Promoting Responsible Gaming
In the evolving Brazilian iGaming market, responsible gaming isn’t just a regulatory requirement — it’s a moral imperative. Atlaslive’s platform is built with cutting-edge features designed to safeguard players while enabling operators to remain compliant with Brazil’s local guidelines and broader global standards.
Atlaslive’s commitment to responsible gaming goes beyond the basics. By leveraging predictive analytics and machine learning, our platform actively monitors player behaviors, detecting patterns that may indicate risky or compulsive gambling. Operators can set customizable limits for players based on their betting history, flag unusual activity, and apply tailored interventions to mitigate harm.
For example, if a player exhibits strong betting patterns indicative of problem gambling, operators can use our platform’s tools to set personalized deposit or bet limits or restrict access entirely. Combined with real-time analytics and over 200 behavioral triggers, Atlaslive offers unmatched precision in identifying at-risk users.
The Responsible Gaming section of the Atlaslive platform provides players with the tools they need to maintain control of their gaming habits. Key features include:
- Self-Exclusion Options: Players can opt out for durations ranging from 1 day to permanently, ensuring they can take a break when needed.
- Spend and Time Limits: Customizable spend limits for sportsbooks or casinos help players manage their finances effectively.
- Reality Check Notifications: Regular reminders, configurable from 1 minute to 2 hours, keep players aware of their gaming activity.
These tools not only help players make informed decisions but also align operators with global best practices, reducing the risk of regulatory breaches.
Responsible gaming and risk management go hand in hand. Atlaslive uses real-time fraud detection powered by advanced data analytics and machine learning to monitor betting patterns, detect suspicious activity, and prevent fraudulent behavior such as account takeovers, arbitrage betting, and money laundering. Operators are equipped with customizable tools, such as player-specific limits or maximum win thresholds, to further mitigate risks.
By integrating risk management and responsible gaming practices, Atlaslive ensures a secure and enjoyable environment for players while enabling operators to maintain compliance, avoid hefty fines, and protect their reputations.

1/ST CONTENT and Italy’s MASAF form new partnership ahead of the Breeders’ Cup

Distribution deal sees leading racing provider for the Americas extend its scope into Italy’s local pool betting via governing body for horse racing
1/ST CONTENT, the pre-eminent provider of premium North and South American horse racing content and a key division of 1/ST, has continued to grow its international footprint in a new partnership with the Italian Ministry of Agriculture, Food Sovereignty and Forestry (MASAF) in the run-up to the Breeders’ Cup World Championships, one of the true highlights on the global racing calendar.
The deal now opens a breakthrough gateway for local pool betting on North American, South American and Turkish racing in Italy – and was soft-launched over last month’s 100th edition of the Hambletonian at The Meadowlands, NJ. This milestone renewal, the pinnacle of harness racing and a format of the sport which is particularly popular with Italian racing fans, fostered immediate fan engagement, as reported by MASAF this month via https://www.grandeippicaitaliana.it/.
The agreement kicks off with the 2025 flagship finale at the Breeders’ Cup World Championships in Del Mar (31 October – 1 November) and brings many of the premier stateside races to Italy, including the Pegasus World Cup (24 January) and the Triple Crown contests of Preakness 151 (16 May) and the Belmont Stakes (6 June). In the aggregate, 1/ST CONTENT’s extensive content portfolio maps approximately 90% of all North American racetracks, alongside South American and Turkish venues, neatly complementing Italy’s domestic sporting action with a reliable source of fast-settling betting content between 18:00 and 05:00 CET.
Italian and North American horse racing currently enjoy a strong reciprocal bond, thanks to three of Italy’s leading jockeys in Frankie Dettori, Umberto Rispoli and Antonio Fresu plying their trade in North America. These three Italian ambassadors were recently introduced to a mainstream global audience via Netflix’s acclaimed Race For The Crown.
1/ST CONTENT’s worldwide experience and customer base for pools betting features the Americas, Morocco, Italy, Singapore, Australia, Turkey, Sweden, France, New Zealand and Hong Kong. As a result, by leveraging 1/ST CONTENT’s unparalleled expertise in capturing and streaming elite live-racing events, bettors across Italy can now enjoy a best-in-breed international racing experience.
Key features of the deal include but are not limited to:
- Comprehensive Coverage: exclusive signals of all racetracks in the United States, Canada, South America and Turkey, ensuring an extensive and diverse range of racing content for Italian audiences.
- Cutting-Edge Technology: high-quality, immersive broadcasts, providing viewers with an unparalleled access to live racing and informative content that both engages the seasoned viewer and educates those unfamiliar with the sport.
- Enhanced Viewer Engagement: accompanying innovative marketing strategies, promotions, and engagement initiatives, enhancing the overall viewer experience and speaking to a dedicated racing community in Italy
Simon Fraser, Senior Vice President International at 1/ST CONTENT, said: “We’re thrilled to be working as a partner with MASAF on a program to rejuvenate their horse racing audience and breathe new life into the Italian industry. Our collaboration marks a cornerstone from which we can build together to ensure that racing is competitive with other betting options and further expands 1/ST’s global reach.”
Remo Chiodi, Director General for Horse Racing at MASAF, added: “This partnership is part of a broader framework aimed at strengthening relations between Italy and the United States in the horseracing sector: it is a path that consolidates ties between the two countries, enhances both our national excellence and international achievements, and opens up new opportunities for growth and exchange. It is a step that also involves breeding and training, while highlighting the image of Italian racing excellence in the United States, represented by our most renowned jockeys competing overseas.
“Thanks to this agreement, major American racing events will be broadcast free-to-air on EQU TV, expanding the television offering and allowing betting on the races within a fully integrated system. After years of challenges, Italian racing is redefining the entire sector to restore our sport to a position of strength, both at home and abroad.”
