FraudLabs Pro is a specialised online transaction fraud prevention solution developed by Hexasoft Development, headquartered in Penang, Malaysia. While its primary focus is e-commerce and card-not-present (CNP) fraud prevention, its IP geolocation and proxy detection API make it a valuable complementary tool for iGaming platforms that need to validate player location as part of their onboarding and payment processing flows.The platform analyzes multiple risk vectors per transaction in real-time, including IP geolocation, anonymous proxy detection, email information, billing and shipping data, card history, and transaction speed. For iGaming operators, this enables the implementation of additional location verifications at the most critical points of the player journey: registration, deposit, and withdrawal, which are precisely where the highest risk of fraud exists.
FraudLabs Pro has a network of merchants who share data on fraud attempts, allowing the system to identify multi-operator abuse patterns, including players attempting to access from restricted jurisdictions with multiple identities or payment methods. This collective intelligence is especially useful for operators who are beginning to build their own fraud database in emerging Latin American markets.
The solution integrates easily with over 20 e-commerce and payment processing platforms through pre-built plugins and offers a REST API with SDKs in multiple programming languages. It includes a free plan for up to 500 monthly verifications and scalable paid plans based on volume, making it accessible for smaller iGaming operators who need a first layer of geo-validation and anti-fraud protection without significant initial investment.
In the Latin American regulatory context, where many markets require operators to verify that players are not from restricted jurisdictions at the time of registration and deposits, FraudLabs Pro offers configurable validation rules by country and IP connection type. This allows operators to define their own acceptance or rejection policies according to the requirements of each license without the need for additional development.
How does FraudLabs Pro prevent bonus abuse in online gaming?
It uses a rules engine that analyzes multiple data points during registration, detecting patterns of multiple account creation from the same location. By identifying proxies and high-risk IPs, the tool preemptively blocks users looking to exploit promotions fraudulently.
What is the 'FraudLabs Pro Score' in online betting?
It is a risk index that evaluates the likelihood of fraud in each new account created. The system analyzes IP reputation, geographic location, and user data consistency to assign a score that allows operators to decide whether to automatically approve, review, or reject the registration.
How does FraudLabs Pro detect disposable emails?
The platform maintains an updated database of temporary or disposable email domains. Preventing registration with these types of emails is one of the first barriers to stop users from creating multiple profiles to abuse promotions or engage in fraudulent activities within the casino.
Can FraudLabs Pro's rules engine be customized?
Yes, iGaming operators can configure custom rules based on their own risk metrics. For example, automatic alerts can be set if a user attempts to register from a high-fraud-risk country or if the IP has been previously flagged in the FraudLabs global network.
How does FraudLabs Pro help reduce manual reviews?
By automating the detection of common red flags, the system filters out the vast majority of legitimate registrations. This allows the compliance team to focus solely on high-risk flagged cases, optimizing human resources and speeding up the player onboarding process.
