We’re thrilled to share that SQR has been selected as an official finalist at the 2023 Vixio Global Regulatory Awards (GRAs), due to be held on November 29th at the De Vere Grand Connaught Rooms in London.

The Vixio GRAs, now in their seventh year, serve as a beacon of recognition for those individuals, teams, and organisations that have shown exemplary dedication to compliance, corporate social responsibility, and safer gambling within the gambling industry. 

Mike Woolfrey, CEO of Vixio, emphasised the significance of this achievement,stating, “This year’s awards are the most competitive since inception. The quality of nominations demonstrates how the industry views the importance of compliance and the ongoing requirement to maintain compliance excellence.”

SQR’s CEO, Shelley Langan-Newton, shared her thoughts on the announcement: ‘We’re incredibly proud to be recognised for our unwavering commitment to innovation across the compliance ecosystem. SQR’s reusable digital identity and eKYC dashboard solution has the potential to play a pivotal role in ensuring that the gambling industry remains compliant and socially responsible – across both online and offline channels.”

The innovative solution, launched earlier this year, assists operators in meeting their complex compliance requirements with ease. Our reusable Digital Identity service empowers players to freely, quickly and securely verify their identity at sign up or sign in – without sharing unnecessary personal data. 

In tandem, the results of extensive KYC, AML and daily ongoing monitoring checks are made securely available to operators in real-time, via SQR’s e-KYC Compliance Dashboard. This enables operators to gain controlled access to verified player data that’s accurate, reliable, and aligned with changes as they happen. 

SQR is dedicated to providing trust at every touchpoint; whether players are interacting digitally or in person. Our proprietary technology, combined with a seamless user interface, also allows land-based users to securely authenticate themselves without the need to have a physical ID document or a mobile device to hand. 

SQR’s nomination for the ‘Best Compliance Innovator of the Year Award’ reflects our commitment to advancement in the fields of technology and compliance. As the countdown to the awards ceremony begins, we remain focused on our core mission to make the world a safer place – by delivering cutting-edge compliance solutions that mitigate fraud whilst protecting players.
