IC360 Selected to Develop Centralized Self-Exclusion Platform for Ontario
Through a successful joint bid, IC360, together with partner IXUP, have been selected by iGaming Ontario to implement a world-class centralized self-exclusion solution
Las Vegas, NV and Toronto, ON (August 1, 2024) – Integrity Compliance 360 Inc. (IC360), the global leader in integrity, compliance and regulatory technology products and services for the sports betting and gaming sectors, is pleased to announce that iGaming Ontario has selected IC360 to develop North America’s first centralized self-exclusion platform for the Ontario iGaming market. IC360’s successful bid is a partnership with IXUP Limited (IXUP), operator of Australia's BetStop national self-exclusion register.
IC360’s successful bid further cements the company as an industry leader for the development of reg tech solutions. This centralized self-exclusion will join IC360’s other innovative solutions such as its prohibited betting solution ProhiBet, its industry-leading integrity monitoring dashboard and PlaybookAI, the industry’s most robust regulatory library and research tool.
“IC360 is excited to work with iGaming Ontario to implement a platform with the highest standard of responsible gambling solutions to one of the world’s leading gaming jurisdictions,” said Eric Frank, IC360 President. “This selection underscores our commitment to excellence and innovation, and it validates the hard work and dedication of our entire team.”
“Delivering solutions for responsible play is a critical element of the reg tech ecosystem and we look forward to working with all stakeholders to deliver the best self-exclusion solution to protect players in Ontario,” added Matt Holt, IC360 CEO.
Al Watson, IXUP CEO said, “We are thrilled to be partnering with IC360 to deliver a world-class solution to iGO. This project serves as a proof point for the best-in-class compliance technology and responsible gambling expertise that our combined teams provide.”
Together, IC360 and IXUP will provide Ontario with a cutting-edge self-exclusion system designed to support players’ decisions to self-exclude while also protecting their privacy. Through this centralized system, players will be able to self-exclude from all regulated iGaming sites in Ontario at once. The selection of IC360 and IXUP comes as a result of a competitive bidding process (Centralized Self-Exclusion (CSE) Solution, iGO # 026-23).
"This project reflects our ongoing commitment to build on the existing player protections here in Ontario. With IC360’s tech-first expertise in betting integrity through ProhiBet and IXUP’s demonstrated success with BetStop in Australia, we’re confident they will help us build a robust self-exclusion system for Ontarians who decide to take a short or long-term break from gambling,” said Martha Otton, iGaming Ontario Executive Director. "We look forward to working with IC360, IXUP, OLG and our operators to develop a centralized self-exclusion program for Ontario’s igaming players.”
The new self-exclusion system will include features such as:
Integrate seamlessly with all regulated Ontario igaming operators’ systems, including OLG.ca.
Provide anyone 19+ with easy access to create and manage their self-exclusion profile.
Implement identity verification, registration, renewal, and reinstatement processes that are intuitive, simple, and offer supporting resources.
