As a Senior Pre-Sales Solution Consultant, Gaming you will be the primary technical point-of-contact throughout the sales cycle for online gaming, sports betting, fantasy sports, and predictions prospects in the Gaming & Predictions pod. You will be responsible for understanding client requirements, designing end-to-end onboarding and transaction risk workflows, and demonstrating how Socure’s platform delivers measurable impact across conversion, fraud losses, bonus abuse/arb, and operational efficiency.

Contribute to internal best practices for gaming and sportsbook (playbooks, discovery templates, POC frameworks, exec-ready decks) and actively mentor junior or peer Solution Consultants, modeling Socure’s embedded leadership competencies (continuous learning, effective communication, accountability, team development, decision making, managing change).
Stay ahead of gaming and the prediction market industry trends, fraud and identity attack vectors, and evolving regulations impacting digital onboarding, payments, geolocation, and responsible gaming; use this knowledge to guide clients and influence internal strategy.

Socure launches mDL verification with Samsung and Google as US regulators clear digital IDs

Socure has launched mobile driver's licence verification in its DocV identity verification product, allowing organisations to verify mDLs cryptographically from Google Wallet and Samsung Wallet during remote onboarding. The launch follows September 2026 guidance from FinCEN and other US regulators confirming that verifiable digital credentials can satisfy Customer Identification Program requirements. ABI Research projects the US mDL install base will grow from 21.7 million in 2025 to 143 million by 2030. Currently, 21 states issue mDLs conforming to ISO/IEC 18013-5 standards, with more than 8 million credentials active. Socure's system combines cryptographic validation with device, behavioural, and identity intelligence to assess user trustworthiness. The capability is available in Socure DocV and extends to government agencies through a partnership with Xcelerate Solutions under Login.gov's identity proofing agreement.

Socure launches mDL verification with Samsung and Google as regulators clear digital IDs.

Socure launches mDL verification with Samsung and Google as regulators clear digital IDs. * 3 hrs ago Socure, the leading trust infrastructure for global identity and risk intelligence, today announced U.S. mobile driver's license (mDL) verification in DocV, its identity verification product. Organizations can now verify mDLs cryptographically against the issuing state authority, presented from Google Wallet and Samsung Wallet, during remote onboarding and step-up flows. The launch follows a significant regulatory shift. On September 8th, 2026, FinCEN, Federal Reserve Board, FDIC, OCC and NCUA jointly issued FAQs confirming that an unexpired, government-issued verifiable digital credential can qualify as documentary evidence under the Customer Identification Program Rule. The guidance attaches a condition: the institution must have the technology or systems necessary to extract the required information. It also states that a digital credential is not automatically sufficient where there are indications of fraud, and that the institution must still form a reasonable belief that it knows the customer's true identity. Technology intelligence firm ABI Research projects the U.S. mDL install base will grow from 21.7 million in 2025 to 143 million by 2030, with 40 states issuing digital licenses. Today, 21 states issue mDLs conforming to the ISO/IEC 18013 standard, more than 8 million credentials are active, and roughly 45% of Americans live somewhere one is available. mDL verification complements Socure's physical document capture rather than replacing it, providing organizations a second path as digital wallets become part of how consumers carry their credentials. The harder problem is remote verification. Most mDL deployments to date have supported in-person presentation, the airport-checkpoint tap covered by Part 5 of the ISO standard. But the verifications that carry the most risk happen remotely - opening an account, claiming a benefit, onboarding to a platform - and remote presentation under Part 7 has been supported unevenly across wallets. Socure DocV now supports remote presentation from Google Wallet and Samsung Wallet, so the credential can be verified online with the issuing state standing behind it rather than inferred from a photograph of a plastic card. With Socure mDL verification, users digitally present their credentials from their mobile wallet during onboarding or step-up verification, without the need to photograph an ID. Verification can be completed in seconds, without retakes or upload errors, helping organizations reduce friction, improve conversion, and deliver a faster experience for legitimate users. "Socure's integration to leverage mobile driver's licenses expands the number of places that people can use their digital IDs, offering a high assurance, low friction verification experience," said Alan Stapelberg, Group Product Lead, Google Wallet. mDLs introduce a fundamentally different security model. When a state DMV issues an mDL, the credential is cryptographically signed. Socure uniquely uses cryptographic credential validation as the starting point, not the finish line, verifying that a mobile driver's license was issued by the state DMV, then layering in device, behavioral, and identity intelligence to help determine whether the person presenting it should be trusted. Taken together, the guidance describes the architecture Socure built. Cryptographic validation establishes that the state issued the credential and that it has not been altered. Socure then layers device, behavioral and identity intelligence to assess whether the person presenting it should be trusted - the reasonable-belief standard the agencies describe. For banks, credit unions, fintechs and other regulated businesses, that combination is what turns a regulatory allowance into a deployable workflow. "Mobile driver's licenses represent a major shift in how consumers prove who they are online," said Deepanker Saxena, Head of Document Verification at Socure. "We want organizations to be able to trust any credential a person shows up with, physical or digital, and pair that with device, behavioral, and identity risk signals so trustworthy users move fast and fraud gets stopped. Balancing the equation between trust and friction is an essential step to scaling consumer adoption within the U.S." The new mDL capability is now available in Socure DocV for organizations looking to modernize onboarding and step-up flows, reduce abandonment, and strengthen fraud prevention. As more consumers choose to verify with mobile credentials, organizations can deliver secure and high-quality experiences for gig workers, job seekers, and citizens using government services. Today's announcement comes alongside an extension of Socure's partnership with Xcelerate Solutions to support critical public sector use cases under the Login.gov Next Generation Identity Proofing Blanket Purchase Agreement. Operating within Socure's FedRAMP Moderate environment, the capability gives government agencies a secure, mobile-native way to verify state-issued digital credentials while reducing friction for citizens accessing online services.

Element451 launches Bolt Fraud Detection with Socure to combat $350M ghost student fraud in US higher education

Element451 has launched Bolt Fraud Detection and Resolution, an AI-powered solution developed with identity verification firm Socure to combat fraud in higher education. The product uses AI agents to continuously monitor applicant and student data, verify identities, and investigate suspicious activity. The system addresses a growing problem that has cost US taxpayers at least $350 million over five years, according to the Department of Education's Inspector General. Traditional detection methods flag suspicious applications but leave staff to manually investigate and follow up. Fraud Detection and Resolution automates the verification process whilst keeping final decisions with human staff. The platform integrates Socure's identity technology, which can verify up to 98% of applicants and is used by the US Department of Education for FAFSA processes. At Galveston College in Texas, the technology has flagged over 1,100 potentially fraudulent applications from 6,200 received, with nearly 90% confirmed as fraudulent upon review.

Socure integrates RiskOS identity verification into Circle's Arc USDC onramp.

Socure integrates RiskOS identity verification into Circle's Arc USDC onramp. Circle's Arc ecosystem now uses Socure's RiskOS to handle identity verification and fraud decisions for fiat-to-USDC onboarding, adding a compliance layer that keeps sensitive identity data off public chains while enabling regulated financial workflows on Arc. Tl;dr. * Socure integrated its RiskOS identity and fraud platform into Arc's Onramp. * RiskOS verifies users and makes fraud decisions during fiat-to-USDC conversion within Arc-built apps. * The setup adds compliance to Circle's institution-focused blockchain while keeping identity data out of public transaction flows. Arc Onramp: identity and risk built in. Arc targets financial applications that require verified users. Payment firms and regulated institutions need customer identification and risk assessments before settling on-chain. Socure's RiskOS operates at onboarding: it combines identity verification with risk decisioning so applications can assess users and transactions before converting fiat to USDC and routing through Arc. Socure's broader platform is used across financial services, government, gaming, and other sectors. Embedding these tools into a blockchain onramp connects established fintech controls with crypto settlement rails. Offchain identity, onchain transactions. Institutional adoption requires separating identity from public ledgers. Open networks enable asset movement across applications without a shared internal database, but regulated firms cannot expose sensitive personal data on-chain. Identity checks occur offchain, while permissions and subsequent transactions move through the blockchain. Socure's role is to provide that offchain identity and fraud layer for Arc. Arc is not new, but the RiskOS integration is new. It expands the infrastructure that makes stablecoin applications operate like conventional financial services: users complete identity verification, fund accounts, and receive USDC, while compliance and fraud controls run in the background for mainstream financial requirements.
