Most venues know us for one thing: either the ID scanner on the door or the AML payout tool behind the counter. We build both, and they’re built to work together. Below is a quick look at what each one does, what’s changed for gaming venues in 2026, and what’s coming next from the IDU Identification team.
AUSTRAC's Rules Changed. Has Your Gaming Payout Process Kept Up?
Since early this year, gaming venues have been operating under a reduced $5,000 CDD threshold, meaning far more payouts now require full identity verification, AML and PEP screening, and auditable record-keeping than before. Paper forms and manual checks were already stretched. Under the new standard, they’re a genuine liability.
Checkd replaces that process with a single guided digital workflow, completed in under 5 minutes. In just over 3 months, Checkd has gone live across 150+ venues and processed over $15 million in gaming payouts, with around 44% of those payouts happening outside regular business hours.
What Checkd Delivers
ID Verification
Checked against government databases, with secondary ID collection handled automatically where required.
Automated AML & PEP Screening
A suggested risk rating built from all collated information, with no manual database searches.
Previous Payout History
Instant access to a patron’s payout history, so repeat activity and risk patterns aren’t missed.
Role-Based Permissions
Customisable risk register parameters for compliance managers and gaming managers.
Compliant Storage & Purging
Sensitive identity documents stored and purged automatically, in line with compliance requirements.
Built for the Gaming Floor
Runs on iPad, directly on the gaming floor, backed by 24/7 Australian-based support.
How Robust Is Your Gaming AML Payout Process?
Most venues aren’t fully manual or fully digital; they’re somewhere in between. Answer a few quick questions to see where your payout process sits on the spectrum. A lot of “digital” processes still come down to someone manually entering details, checking a screen, and then making the call themselves. That’s not automation; it’s just a manual process wearing a digital coat.
Enter your details below and we'll send your profile straight to your inbox, along with where the biggest gaps typically sit for venues with the same result.
ID Scanning That Verifies Patrons in Seconds
Checkd is built on top of iDU’s core identity verification technology, the same scanning engine behind our flagship Patron Intelligence Platform, trusted by 500+ venues across Australia, New Zealand and the US. Every scan reads the ID and returns verified patron details in 3–4 seconds, so entry doesn’t slow down on your busiest night.
Scans and Processes IDs in 3–4 Seconds
Reads all Australian Digital Licences plus 4,500+ global ID types, returning verified patron details in seconds so entry keeps moving at the door.
Manages Bans Across Venues
Digitally shared across venue networks, helping alert venues to known troublemakers before incidents occur.
Real-Time Patron Insights
Visit frequency, demographics and trends to support smarter venue decisions.
Government Database Verification
For venues that want an extra layer of assurance, government database verification is available as an add-on to catch fraudulent or altered IDs beyond a visual check.
Coming Soon
Our Next Hospitality Innovation
We’re not stopping at ID scanning and AML payouts. We’re launching Trackd, a new solution built specifically for hospitality venues.
