A mock audit is a simulated regulatory inspection conducted by independent experts. It mirrors the questions, reviews, and documentation checks that regulators carry out, helping you identify gaps and prepare corrective actions in advance.

Mock audits give you a safe space to test your compliance framework before the regulator does. They reduce the risk of enforcement action, protect your licence, and provide assurance to management and investors that the business is regulator-ready.

Every audit is conducted by a former regulator, supported by experienced internal auditors with decades of combined experience in the egaming sector. This ensures our assessments consistently reflect the standards and expectations of regulatory authorities.

An internal audit evaluates the effectiveness of your controls and governance processes. A mock audit, on the other hand, replicates a regulator’s inspection, focusing specifically on how your business would perform under official scrutiny. Both are complementary, and many operators choose to run them together.

Mock audits can be tailored to cover:

• AML/CFT and Know Your Customer (KYC)

• Safer gambling and player protection

• Data protection and information security

• Licensing obligations and regulatory reporting

• Governance and risk management

• Day-to-day operational compliance

We work collaboratively to minimise disruption. While the process is thorough and realistic, it is designed to strengthen your business, not interrupt it. We agree timelines in advance and deliver clear findings in a way that supports your team’s work.

We recommend conducting a mock audit before licence applications or renewals, when entering new jurisdictions, or ahead of a scheduled regulatory visit. Many operators also carry them out annually as part of their ongoing compliance strategy.

You’ll receive a detailed report highlighting findings, risk ratings, and recommended actions. We don’t just hand over a list of issues, we provide practical advice and, where needed, ongoing support to help you address gaps and prepare with confidence.
