FOTW: Seamless Spelpaus Integration – simplifying Swedish compliance with Flows

Share:

As the iGaming industry continues to grow, the Swedish market stands out as a highly regulated and competitive space. Operators looking to enter or expand in Sweden face strict compliance checks, particularly around player protection. Central to this is the Spelpaus integration, which connects operators to the national self-exclusion scheme, ensuring that players who wish to self-exclude are barred from gambling activities.

Spelpaus Integration

The Challenge: Navigating the complexities of the Swedish market

For operators, compliance with Spelpaus regulations is non-negotiable. A common challenge lies in integrating national self-exclusion lists, such as Spelpaus.se, which can delay the registration and go-live processes significantly. Operators are required to check in real time whether a player is registered with Spelpaus during sign-up or login attempts. Failure to comply could lead to heavy fines and damage to their reputation.

Additionally, operators must ensure that no marketing communications are sent to players who have opted for self-exclusion.

This creates a dual challenge: maintaining operational efficiency while dealing with complex, evolving regulations, and avoiding delays that can hinder business growth.

The Solution: Flows + Spelpaus = faster, smarter compliance

Look no further—Flows is the answer. With our seamless integration of Spelpaus.se, operators can connect to Sweden’s national self-exclusion system at lightning speed. No more delays or complex processes—just effortless integration of your registration, login, and marketing flows.

This integration highlights the power of our platform and versatile app-builder, making compliance with responsible gambling regulations fast and easy. With API access, operators can connect instantly and focus on delivering safer gaming experiences.

With the integration of Spelpaus into the Flows App Marketplace, operators can now streamline their compliance processes while maintaining operational efficiency. By leveraging Flows’ no-code automation platform, operators can build custom workflows (or “flows”) that automatically check Spelpaus status at key interaction points, ensuring real-time compliance with player protection laws.

 

Spelpaus Integration

How it works:

  1. Real-time registration and login checks: When a player attempts to register or log in, operators can create a flow that automatically checks their status in the Spelpaus registry. If the player is listed, the flow can instantly block the registration or login attempt, and trigger a notification to the compliance team. This ensures that operators are always compliant with the latest regulations, with no manual intervention required.
  2. Marketing communications compliance: Operators can set up automated flows that cross-check players’ status before any marketing communication is sent. If a player is self-excluded, the flow halts the communication, ensuring that operators don’t inadvertently target vulnerable players and risk regulatory penalties.
  3. Adapting to regulatory changes: Regulations in Sweden, like in many markets, are subject to change. Flows’ no-code automation allows operators to adapt quickly by modifying existing flows or building new ones, without the need for development resources. This flexibility gives operators peace of mind, knowing they can always stay one step ahead of changing compliance requirements.
