Gaming Operators

Welcome to the Sentinal® Integration Documentation for Gaming Operators. This guide is specifically tailored for Gaming Operators seeking to integrate seamlessly with the Sentinal® system. Built on REST principles, the Sentinal® API offers a secure, auditable, and standardised integration experience for managing wagers, payouts, and financial compliance.

This documentation outlines what gaming operators are, their responsibilities in the Sentinal® ecosystem, and the key API endpoints required for integration.

What are Gaming Operators in the Sentinal® Ecosystem?

Gaming operators are licensed entities that offer games of chance, skill, or betting to users in digital or physical environments. These operators manage user wagers, handle payouts, and are responsible for maintaining regulatory compliance around financial transactions, taxation, and responsible gaming.

In the Sentinal® ecosystem, gaming operators must accurately record each wager placed and each payout issued, providing traceability for auditing and reporting purposes.

Responsibilities of Gaming Operators Integrating with Sentinal®

As a gaming operator integrating with the Sentinal® system, you are responsible for:

  • Deposit Capture: Record every deposit made into a customer account, including metadata such as deposit amount, customer identifiers, funding method, and optional geolocation. This ensures transparency in funds entering the gaming environment.

  • Withdrawal Capture: Log every withdrawal made from a customer account back to their chosen payment method, ensuring funds leaving the environment are fully traceable.

  • Wager Capture: Record every wager placed on your platform, including metadata such as wager amount, customer identifiers, and optional geolocation.

  • Payout Capture: Record all payouts made following successful wagers, ensuring each payout is directly linked to the original wager.

  • Transaction Integrity: Maintain the integrity of all transaction records to enable regulatory bodies to monitor financial flows, detect anomalies, and ensure accurate tax assessments.
