Antifraud Policy — Satbet

This page explains how the company prevents, detects, and responds to fraud, bonus abuse, chargebacks, and collusion for users accessing the platform from India. Controls include KYC/PAN verification, UPI/bank ownership checks, device/network monitoring, and proportional measures where risk is detected. The Policy is neutral, complements the Terms & Conditions and Privacy Policy, and provides a clear path for appeals.
Purpose and scope
This Antifraud Policy explains how the company prevents, detects, and responds to fraud, bonus abuse, chargebacks, collusion, and other risks. It covers sportsbook, casino, payments, and promotions used from India. The Policy applies to players, affiliates, contractors, and other third parties who interact with the platform. Where local law limits access, services are not offered. This document supplements the platform’s Terms & Conditions, Bonus Rules, Privacy Policy, and KYC Policy.
Key objectives (overview of what this Policy seeks to achieve):
- Protect the integrity of markets and games.
- Safeguard customer funds and data.
- Ensure compliance with applicable KYC/AML/CFT requirements.
- Keep a fair experience for all users.
Legal basis and compliance
The company aligns its controls with applicable anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing frameworks and with the rules of its licensing jurisdiction. Access from India is only allowed where it is lawful for the user. The company may cooperate with competent authorities or regulated partners when legally required. This page is informational and not legal advice.
Key Definitions
For clarity, the following terms are used throughout this Policy:
- Fraud: Any deliberate act or omission intended to gain an undue advantage (e.g., identity theft, account takeover, chargeback fraud).
- Bonus abuse: Artificial extraction of promotional value (e.g., multi-accounting, referral loops, geo-evasion, risk-free hedging).
- High-risk activity: Behaviour or transactions that deviate from a user’s normal profile or exceed set risk thresholds.
- KYC/AML/CFT: Know-Your-Customer, Anti-Money Laundering, and Counter-Terrorist Financing controls, including screening and monitoring.
Principles of fraud prevention
These principles guide how the company prevents and addresses fraud:
- Zero tolerance: Fraud and abuse are not permitted.

- Accuracy and confidentiality: Decisions use documented evidence and protect user data.
- Proportional response: Measures fit the severity and context.
- Auditability and fairness: Actions are logged, users can appeal.

- Transaction monitoring: Velocity limits; circular flows; rapid deposit-withdraw cycles; chip-dumping patterns; UPI VPA ownership checks and bank account validation.
- Bonus integrity controls: One-person-one-account rules; geo-eligibility; wagering limits; detection of syndicate/collusive behaviour.
- Sports and casino integrity: Late-line and correlated-market alerts; unusual markets; bot/auto-clicker detection; RTP outlier review.

Responsibility of Affiliates and Partners
Affiliates and partners must market Satbet responsibly, comply with applicable advertising standards, and avoid misleading claims (e.g., “legal everywhere,” “tax-free,” or unsubstantiated win rates).

Creatives and landing pages should reflect accurate eligibility (18+), responsible-gaming messaging, and India-appropriate disclosures; the company may approve, request changes to, or withdraw creatives at any time. Partners must cooperate with antifraud reviews by providing timely logs, source data, and UTM/reporting evidence. Violations may result in suspension of tracking, withholding or clawback of commissions (in INR), termination of the partnership, and, where legally required, reporting to competent authorities.
