When the game is live, identity defines what’s fair play.

Here’s what we mean: in the worlds of gaming and online betting, identity is the foundation that protects players, platforms, and revenue in real time. Players expect fast sign-ups, seamless gameplay, and instant payouts. For that to happen, identity has to be an enabler.

Prove’s State of Identity Report reveals how fraud, AI-driven abuse, and shifting player behavior are raising the stakes and redefining the requirements for what identity must do in high-velocity digital environments.

Why Identity Is Different in Gaming

When speed is the standard, identity is the control. Gaming and online betting platforms operate under unique pressures, including:

Real-time transactions

Global player bases

High-value incentives

Strict regulatory scrutiny

Sophisticated, organized fraud rings

Traditional, point-in-time identity checks weren’t built for the reality of innovative online gaming and betting. They demand identity decisions that don’t stop at signup.

What’s In the Report

Digital identity is no longer a point-in-time check. It is now the foundation of trust, security, and growth for all digital activity. Organizations that continue to rely on outdated identity models will face rising fraud losses, degraded customer experiences, and growing regulatory risk. This report provides a clear, actionable path forward at a moment when delay is no longer an option.
