How onboarding works

Onboarding a client means building a fully documented, screened and approved (or rejected) client file. In BECCO E-gaming that process consists of six steps:

  1. Create the client — register the new client and decide who fills in the submission form: you, or the client themselves via an email invitation.
  2. The submission form — the client answers a guided questionnaire about themselves and their company, and uploads the required documents.
  3. Shareholders & other parties — everyone with a significant role in the structure (UBOs, shareholders, directors) receives their own form to complete.
  4. Verify the information — you start a review and check every party’s information and documents.
  5. Screening — the people and companies involved are screened against sanction lists and PEP registers.
  6. Review & decision — compliance assesses the risks, and management gives the final approval.

The client status is updated automatically as the work progresses. It is shown in the client list and on the client page:

StatusMeaningWho acts
InitialThe client has been created, but nobody has started filling in a form yet.The client (or you) — step 2
Pending informationOne or more parties are busy filling in their forms.The client and their parties — steps 2–3
Pending verificationAll parties have completed and submitted their forms.You — step 4
In reviewA review is open: information is being verified and assessed.You and compliance — steps 4–6
Pending approvalCompliance has finished; management needs to give the final sign-off.Management — step 6
Accepted / DeclinedThe final decision has been made.Nobody — the process is finished

A typical onboarding involves three roles on your side (see Team roles):

  • The account manager creates the client, guides them through the submission, verifies the information and prepares the review.
  • The compliance officer verifies every party a second time, assesses the risks and writes the final conclusion.
  • Management gives the final approval for new clients. This is a built-in four-eyes control: the person who approves is never the person who reviewed.

While you work through the steps, the system takes care of a number of things:

  • Emails — parties receive their invitations, and your team is notified when a client is ready for the next step. See Emails sent by the system.
  • Audit trail — every action, status change and email is recorded on the client’s Audit trail tab.
  • Ongoing monitoring — after a screening, every screened person and company is re-screened daily. New findings appear on the client without any action on your side.
  • Periodic reviews — after onboarding, the system opens a new periodic review three months before the client’s next review date and notifies the account managers.
