Anti-Money Laundering Policy.

Last updated April 2026

Our commitment

Shanz Game follows the standards set by the Financial Reporting Centre (FRC) of Kenya and the broader POCAMLA framework. We maintain a risk-based AML program covering KYC, ongoing monitoring, sanctions screening, and suspicious-activity reporting.

Customer Due Diligence (CDD)

  • Government-issued ID (National ID, passport, or driving licence).
  • Liveness selfie matched to the ID photo.
  • Phone number confirmed via OTP.
  • Source-of-funds questions for transactions above KES 1,000,000.

Monitoring

  • Real-time velocity checks on deposits and withdrawals.
  • Device and IP fingerprinting to detect multi-accounting.
  • Sanctions list screening against OFAC, UN, EU and the Kenya FRC list.
  • Automated flagging of unusual patterns — structured deposits, rapid withdrawals, etc.

Reporting

Suspicious Transaction Reports (STRs) are filed with the FRC where required. We cannot notify the customer that an STR has been filed.
