Facephi brings real-time fraud defence to ICE Barcelona 2026: a commitment to intelligent, frictionless detection
Facephi, a leading company in digital identity verification solutions, confirms its attendance at ICE Barcelona 2026, Europe’s premier online gaming and betting exhibition. Under the slogan “Fraud ends here. Your game continues”, the company will showcase its most advanced anti-fraud intelligence solutions, specifically designed to address the current complexity of the iGaming ecosystem: AI-driven bot detection, coordinated mule account networks, identity impersonation and deepfakes.
An estimated 78% of gaming platforms report illicit activity linked to mule account networks, while deepfake attacks increased by more than 245% in 2024 compared to the previous year.
As a positive indicator, operators that implement advanced controls such as those provided by Facephi are able to reduce fraud by up to 80%, without slowing down onboarding, gameplay or payments.
A three-layer model: identity, behaviour and risk in one place
Facephi brings to ICE Barcelona its 360° architecture covering the entire fraud prevention lifecycle, orchestrated from a single platform:
Layer 1: Session — Identity and Access
Verification of real players in seconds through document analysis or biometrics. Blocking of bots and synthetic identities from the very first login, without adding friction for legitimate users.
Layer 2: Account — Behaviour and Mule Accounts
Continuous monitoring of each account: transaction speed, activity patterns and network analysis that enable early detection of mule accounts or behavioural anomalies before withdrawals, bonus abuse or account takeovers occur.
Layer 3: Transaction — Risk and Balance
Real-time scoring of every deposit, bet and withdrawal. Blocking of extreme-risk actions and escalation of workflows when necessary, allowing legitimate players to proceed without friction.
All layers operate within a single platform, freeing fraud teams to focus exclusively on the highest-risk cases.
