This Anti-Money Laundering and Know Your Customer Policy ("AML/KYC Policy") sets out the obligations of VENUS DEL ALMA LIMITADA ("we", "us", "our"), the operator of Mamabet Casino at mamabet-casino.nl, and the corresponding obligations of all persons who register and use the platform. Mamabet Casino holds a Costa Rica gaming licence and is committed to preventing money laundering, terrorist financing, and fraud by applying robust customer due-diligence and transaction-monitoring procedures across all fiat and cryptocurrency activity on the site.
Money laundering is the process by which the proceeds of criminal activity are made to appear legitimate. Terrorist financing involves the use of funds — whether or not derived from crime — to support terrorist acts or organisations. Both activities are serious criminal offences and cause significant harm to individuals, communities, and the integrity of the financial system.
Mamabet Casino operates a zero-tolerance approach to money laundering and terrorist financing. The purpose of this Policy is to:
This Policy applies to all customers of mamabet-casino.nl regardless of the payment method used, whether fiat currency or any of the 21 cryptocurrencies accepted on the platform, including but not limited to BTC, ETH, SUI, SHIB, and ChainLink.
Mamabet Casino is operated by VENUS DEL ALMA LIMITADA under a Costa Rica gaming licence. In addition to the requirements of that licence, we voluntarily apply internationally recognised AML/KYC standards as a matter of best practice, including the recommendations of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) and the principles of the European Union's Anti-Money Laundering Directives, to the extent they represent global industry norms applicable to online gaming operators.
This Policy is reviewed and updated periodically to reflect changes in applicable law, regulatory guidance, and best practice. Customers are encouraged to check mamabet-casino.nl for the current version.
VENUS DEL ALMA LIMITADA has designated a Compliance Officer responsible for:
The Compliance Officer may escalate matters to senior management and, where legally required or operationally appropriate, to external authorities.
Mamabet Casino adopts a risk-based approach to AML/KYC, meaning that the level of due diligence applied to any customer or transaction is proportionate to the assessed risk of money laundering or terrorist financing associated with that customer or transaction.
When assessing risk, we consider factors including but not limited to:
Customers are categorised as low, medium, or high risk. Higher-risk customers are subject to Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD) as described in Section 7. Risk ratings are reviewed periodically and whenever a change in behaviour or circumstance warrants reassessment.
Standard CDD is applied to all customers at the point of registration and before any withdrawal is processed. It may also be triggered at any point during the customer relationship by factors including reaching defined transaction thresholds, changes in behaviour, or compliance review.
To satisfy standard CDD, every customer must provide documentation sufficient to verify the following:
Mamabet Casino accepts the following government-issued documents for identity verification:
All submitted documents must be:
Address verification requires a recent document, issued within the preceding three months, which clearly shows the customer's full name and residential address. Acceptable documents include:
PO box addresses are not accepted as proof of residential address.
Mamabet Casino requires that the payment method used to deposit is verified as belonging to the account holder. Depending on the method used — which may include Visa, Mastercard, Maestro, Skrill, Neteller, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Revolut, Trustly, bank transfer, or any of the 21 accepted cryptocurrencies — verification may require:
Third-party payment methods are not permitted. Deposits and withdrawals must be made using accounts held in the customer's own name. In line with Mamabet Casino's cashier policy, fiat deposits are withdrawn in fiat and cryptocurrency deposits are returned in cryptocurrency — no cross-currency substitution is permitted, and this principle supports our obligation to return funds via the original payment route.
Mamabet Casino recommends that customers complete identity verification promptly after registration, before placing their first withdrawal request. Under normal conditions, withdrawal requests are reviewed and approved within two business days. Where an anti-fraud or compliance review is required, processing may take up to seven days.
Withdrawals will not be released to customers who have not completed the required level of verification. The minimum withdrawal amount is €40 (or cryptocurrency equivalent). The standard weekly withdrawal cap is €10,000, which rises as customers progress through the Lucky Kitchen VIP Club tiers — verification requirements remain applicable regardless of VIP tier.
If a customer's verification documents cannot be validated within a reasonable period, Mamabet Casino reserves the right to suspend withdrawals, freeze the account, or — where legally permitted — return funds to the original deposit source pending resolution.
Enhanced Due Diligence is applied to customers who present a higher risk profile, including but not limited to:
Enhanced Due Diligence measures may include any or all of the following:
Customers subject to EDD may be asked to provide documentation at shorter intervals than standard customers. Refusal or inability to provide requested documentation in a timely manner may result in account suspension or closure.
A Politically Exposed Person is an individual who holds, or has held within the preceding twelve months, a prominent public function — such as a head of state, senior government official, judicial officer, military commander, senior executive of a state-owned enterprise, or senior official of a political party — together with their immediate family members and known close associates.
Mamabet Casino screens all customers against recognised PEP databases at the point of registration and on an ongoing basis. Where a customer is identified as a PEP:
Mamabet Casino screens all customers against international sanctions lists, including those maintained by the United Nations, the European Union, and other relevant authorities. Screening is conducted at registration and periodically throughout the customer relationship.
Where a customer is identified as a designated or sanctioned individual or entity, the account will be frozen immediately and the matter escalated to the Compliance Officer. No funds will be released pending resolution, and the matter will be reported to the appropriate authorities as required by applicable law.
Mamabet Casino does not accept registrations from, or process transactions for, individuals or entities subject to applicable sanctions.
Mamabet Casino operates continuous transaction monitoring across all customer accounts. Automated systems and manual review procedures are used to identify patterns of behaviour that may indicate money laundering, fraud, or other financial crime.
The following are examples of activity that may trigger a review or investigation:
Internal thresholds are set for cumulative deposits, withdrawals, and net gaming activity. Customers whose cumulative activity reaches these thresholds will be prompted to complete, or upgrade, their verification. Specific threshold values are not published, as disclosure would undermine the effectiveness of our monitoring.
Where monitoring or review gives rise to a suspicion of money laundering or terrorist financing, the matter is escalated to the Compliance Officer without delay. The Compliance Officer will assess the information and, where warranted, file a Suspicious Activity Report (SAR) or equivalent report with the competent authority under applicable law.
Mamabet Casino strictly prohibits "tipping off" — the disclosure to a customer, or to any third party, that a report has been made or that an investigation is underway. Employees and contractors are bound by this obligation under their terms of engagement. Customers are advised that, under applicable law, it is an offence to prejudice an investigation by disclosing its existence.
Mamabet Casino accepts deposits and withdrawals in 21 digital currencies. Cryptocurrency transactions carry specific AML risks, including pseudonymity and the potential use of mixing or tumbling services. Accordingly, the following additional controls apply to cryptocurrency users:
As noted in the cashier policy, cryptocurrency deposits are returned in the same cryptocurrency — cross-currency conversions to fiat or to a different digital asset at the point of withdrawal are not permitted, which assists in maintaining a traceable transaction record.
Mamabet Casino's welcome bonus (up to €1,500 across the first three deposits plus 150 free spins), reload promotions, cashback, and the Lucky Kitchen VIP Club rewards are subject to AML controls in the same way as all other activity on the platform. The following rules apply:
Mamabet Casino applies the following controls at the point of account registration to reduce the risk of fraudulent or multiple-account activity:
Mamabet Casino retains records relating to customer identification, verification, and transaction history for a minimum of five years from the date on which the business relationship ends, or from the date of an occasional transaction. Records retained include:
All records are held securely in accordance with applicable data protection law and Mamabet Casino's Privacy Policy. They are made available to competent authorities upon lawful request.
All VENUS DEL ALMA LIMITADA personnel with responsibilities relevant to AML/KYC compliance — including customer support, fraud, and payments teams — receive training on this Policy, the identification of suspicious activity, and their individual obligations. Training is conducted at induction and refreshed at regular intervals, or whenever material changes to applicable law or this Policy occur.
Live chat support agents, who are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, are trained to recognise customer behaviour that may indicate financial crime and to escalate such cases through the appropriate internal channels without disclosing the nature of the escalation to the customer.
By registering and using mamabet-casino.nl, customers agree to:
Failure to cooperate with verification requests may result in deposits being declined, withdrawals being withheld, and accounts being suspended or permanently closed. Where there is evidence of deliberate obstruction or fraudulent conduct, Mamabet Casino will report the matter to the relevant authorities and may take further legal action.
Mamabet Casino reserves the right to suspend or close any account, and to withhold or return funds, in the following circumstances:
Where an account is suspended pending investigation, Mamabet Casino will communicate with the customer through the available support channels — live chat, contact form, or VIP Telegram where applicable — subject to the restriction that no information which might prejudice an ongoing investigation may be disclosed.
Mamabet Casino recognises that problem gambling and financial crime can sometimes intersect — for example, where funds used for gambling are derived from illegal activity, or where an individual's gambling behaviour is inconsistent with their known financial circumstances. Our responsible gambling programme and our AML controls are therefore designed to operate in a complementary manner.
Customers who have activated self-exclusion or deposit limits will not have those restrictions removed as part of any VIP uplift process without appropriate review. Responsible gambling controls do not override AML obligations, and AML investigations do not override the casino's duty of care to vulnerable customers. Both sets of obligations are applied independently and concurrently where relevant.
Customers with questions about the verification process or this Policy may contact the Mamabet Casino support team at any time via live chat on mamabet-casino.nl, the on-site contact form, or — for VIP members — the dedicated VIP Telegram channel. Queries of a sensitive compliance nature will be handled by the Compliance Officer or a designated senior team member.
Any person who suspects financial crime in connection with Mamabet Casino or who has concerns about their own account may contact us through the above channels. All such communications are treated in strict confidence.
This AML/KYC Policy is reviewed at least annually and updated as required to reflect changes in applicable law, regulatory guidance, and operational practice. The current version is always available on mamabet-casino.nl. Continued use of the platform following publication of an updated Policy constitutes acceptance of the revised terms. Material changes will be communicated to registered customers where reasonably practicable.
