I brought this up for discussion here because I've seen some casinos with ANN threads in the forum advertising themselves as non-KYC casinos, but I suspect they are actually regulated. So, if they are truly regulated and still advertising as non-KYC casinos, how should we interpret their actions? Is it a way to entice and potentially cheat gamblers?

I doubt that it is possible to obtain a license anywhere to operate with significant amounts of money (including making payments to clients) without a KYC. Unless, of course, it is a license that, for example, I can issue and which does not oblige you to anything Grin

If I saw a casino that simultaneously marketed itself as licensed/regulated and yet had no KYC, I would do further research before playing there.

Sure they can, but there are a lot of casinos out there and one of the only distinguishing factors between them is often their reputation. You will find many that run all the same casino games and offer near identical sport book odds, however they have acquired players at various times who stick with them. These gambling sites, apart from those run by absolute idiots, make far more money by keeping players returning and not annoying them by pulling such obvious lies. They'll often be spending a lot of money on advertisements and even giving away very generous promotions, so they are not going to throw it all away by backtracking on this. Their license is almost irrelevant and they are often purchased with little meaning from island nations with minimal regulations.

I don't recall seeing an ANN thread advertising a KYC-free casino; perhaps I haven't noticed it myself. However, I recently came across a forum member advertising a website that displays KYC-free casinos (with his referral link included). Upon opening, I saw some quite known casinos that are even advertised here, but a quick look through their TOS and you'll see that they may ask for KYC at any time.

With that being said, two are my main guesses: if a casino is being advertised as KYC-free, it's either misleading and they'll prompt you to their TOS and may ask for verification at any time, or it's an unlicensed casino that doesn't comply with EU regulations.

When a regulated casino is seen advertising as a "No KYC Casino", it's simply means such casino offers certain leverage for gamblers to gamble freely without the compulsory verification of KYC for deposit and withdrawal, but that doesn't mean that if a user is found guilty to cheat or go against it's terms and conditions you won't be penalized, because for the fact that such casino do not offer KYC, it's always very easy for them to confiscate users fund when they fall victim. So it's better to gamble on a casino with proven track record and reputation, than go for casinos that claimed to be KYC free, and lacks reputation in the industry.

Don't just read the ANN, it's better to do a test and read their ToS as well.
Each casino has their own ToS, so if they say it's a Non-KYC Online Casino, you can read what the explanation is and what the requirements are.

Usually casinos that claim to be non-KYC will not ask for KYC only for new registrants, but there will be some conditions where KYC is required such as on withdrawals of a certain amount or if you want to use other features that require users to do KYC.

Do your due diligence first, then you will know and can draw your own conclusions.

In getting a Casino License from regulatory standards, it is mandatory to enforce KYC on each of its customers, I think all governments in affirming casino business operations have mandatory regulations in talking about KYC, but maybe there are other countries that do not require it and I have not found it.

It's just that if you look at it with a general eye, it is indeed a fraudulent marketing, because on average the licenses issued need to hold KYC, while if they advertise themselves with the sentence Non KYC it is just a trick to attract people to gamble at their casino, but I believe enough people in this forum are smart people and know how they sort out casinos that are truly honest.

Questions like this must have many pros and cons. In my opinion, if the platform of a large gambling company, maybe I comply with KYC regulations, of course the company has its own value to maintain the company's good name. When there are obstacles, personal data becomes a question later to be used as evidence. However, if the company is still vulnerable or has a bad license, it is questionable because it is very dangerous for members. and I prefer to go to a well-known casino. which can already be a big sponsor

There are two possibilities,

If the casino actually managed to find a regulatory body that doesn't require KYC for their AML then it's possibly true.

If not they are actually not non KYC casino but they may require KYC at anytime if they want and they just don't require upfront at the straight and nowadays these are kind of rare but this is how the casinos worked few years back.

We only need to go through KYC if they suspect something or else we may not longer need to do verification at all.

If the platform is regulated, then it is clear that the platform must require its users to do KYC because from various casino regulators in various countries, they require casinos that register under their regulations to comply with KYC policies in order to fulfill legal and regulatory requirements, data theft, money laundering, and various other things. So from that if the casino platform says that they are regulated but still campaigns that their users do not need to do KYC, then it indicates that the casino platform is not compliant or indeed wants to deceive its users.

It's always better to read the terms and conditions of a casino first rather than trusting whatever they say in the announcement thread. In announcement threads most casinos want attention and they might be new at the time of creating the announcement threads but overtime they get developed as reputed casinos and give less time to change their announcement thread details but they always update their terms and conditions and that's why I believe it's better to read terms and conditions of a casino.

One needs to know how to separate advertisement from the actual features of casinos (or any kind of service in that regard).
When a casino advertise itself as "non-KYC" it could be anything, in the most scenarios they actually mean the gambler does not need to submit their KYC information in order for them to start to gamble and deposit. It is done on purpose, to allow those terms in the ads to be left at the interpretation of the target audience, you know.
When comes to regulation and licensing, I could not expect a regulated casino or a casino under a serious operating license not to ask for one's documents when comes to withdrawing money to private crypto addresses, in fact, one of the main objectives of KYC and AML measures is to tie our identity to our public cryptographic keys which can only be done by doing ourselves to centralized casinos and bookmakers.

Each time you seek non-KYC or "privacy" on the advertisement of a casino which is alledgedly licensed, you must doubt of it.

Then is the license not strict with its regulations?
I still play at some casinos and never do KYC but the casino is already licensed or regulated which means there is still freedom for casino users not to KYC right?

As far as I know ... only for small users who do not KYC while their big players will be KYC by the casino.
It is possible that so far the casino has not been strict even though it already has a license.

We don't have to interpret that casino and no need to choose that casino as a place to gambling. We have other casinos that we use to playing gambling so we can back to our casino. Even if that casino offers an exciting promotions.

We should be careful with that casino and always research before we use the casino to gambling. Maybe that casino want to cheat gamblers without we know so staying away from that casino will be better to do. We don't have to think much about the casino because we have our own casino list that we use to gambling.

If we see that thing, we don't have to use that casino. We don't want to get trick by the casino. Many good casinos that we already know so we can use the casino's list to gambling.

Actually it isn't supposed to be so though I haven't really come across a casino that does an advertisement of that nature. Anyways it could be some kind of marketing strategy or probably they have both regulated ones that make use of KYC and the regular non- KYC versions. I prefer non KYC mandatory casinos to KYC mandatory casinos for many reasons including privacy.
Infact I find it difficult to attempt signing up on a casino that has mandatory KYC requirements. I think a such a situation that seems something like false advertisement one has to make sure to do his own research by reading through the casions terms and conditions as well as user agreement policies as they'll carry important details.

Well, I think it's very much possible that a casino can actually deny that of being a KYC casino and we can all guess the reason why they will do that. When a casino or a business wants to win lots of customers, they will look for a strategy to use and archive their goal and that's one strategy. Like someone already stated, as long as the casino is licensed, they can never operate without KYC. Even if they are not requesting for KYC at the beginning of a players registration, they will indicate on their ToS saying, "we have the right to change our policy and request for KYC. Players should be very observant to all those things.

IF you would wan to use their platforms, then its in your responsibility to make the research about them and be sure they are legit to the point you would wan to use their platform, as the forum will not be responsible for anything you do with them outside the forum. been regulated is a reason to consider them tho because you can be sure that at some point they can be kept in check if they are found wanting but it will be bad if they are not regulated and at same time they are a non kyc casino. although some may not meet up with all fo this and will still not be fraudulent . always make sure to make your research about a casino before you make use of them.

As far as I know, every gambling industry to obtain licensing permits minimizes the importance of the main KYC requirements for users before advertising is distributed publicly.

It seems like a strong reason to obtain a License for the gambling industry.

Quote

A significant objective of the licensing process is to ensure the safety of minors and vulnerable populations from possible risk and exploitation in the gambling industry.

It clearly states there.

And other reasons for online casinos for license approval and KYC implementation for users include.

Quote

Effective KYC protects companies from doing business with organisations or individuals involved in illegal activity, such as money laundering, terrorist financing or corruption. It also allows financial institutions to get a better understanding of their customers’ businesses, which can provide valuable insights for financial institutions.

So, there mentions the importance of KYC for licensed casinos to guard against various kinds of charges and criminal actions that apply legally.

So, conclusion: as far as I know, licensed online casinos cannot legally advertise without KYC, KYC is important for licensed casinos, that's my understanding and if a licensed casino advertises without KYC, I think it's illegal.

I guess this isn't new. To spread awareness in the community, once we see a casino create an announcement thread in the forum claiming to be a "no KYC" casino, we should question them and see if they can answer all the queries correctly. If they don't request KYC, it likely means they aren't regulated, and they shouldn't be able to use KYC to scam gamblers. Additionally, we can check the casino's name to verify if they really have a license or not, because if they do, that claim could be a way to scam people.

It defeat the purpose on why they regulated those casino since if they government allow casino to operate without asking KYC details then money laundering schemes and other criminal activities will still happen. That's why I think this is the major reason on why casino ask KYC so that they can comply on everything asked and make sure that there platform is not been used for this criminal activities.

Usually those advertising that they are NO KYC compliance casino is unregulated so we know that there's huge risk for dealing this casino especially if they don't have reputation built in this community. If they advertise that they are non- KYC casino even if they have license then I guess that is simple cheating. This is why we should spend time reading their TOS so that we would know that the casino will ask a KYC to us in future.

Some casinos that are regulated can still advertise themselves as non-kyc casinos until the regulator deems it necessary for them to request KYC from their customers; some even made it clear that they don't request KYC verification unless it's necessary.

If one doesn't want to gamble in a KYC-enabled casino, it's better to avoid those casinos that are regulated and licensed; just go for a pure crypto base casino where you won't be asked for any documents for verification, or better yet, stick to Web3 casinos that are decentralised.
