FinTelegram has reviewed a whistleblower report indicating that Germany’s financial watchdog BaFin has registered a case concerning Yapily Connect UAB, the Lithuanian licensed arm of the UK open-banking group Yapily. The allegations are explosive: regulated Pay by Bank infrastructure was allegedly used to process deposits for offshore casino brands targeting German players.

Whistleblower dossiers and prior reporting place eMoore N.V. and the broader EM Group at the management and Cyprus-linked payment layer of a Europe-facing online casino network. The key issue is a stark contradiction: while EM Group publicly marketed compliance and licensing expertise, its structures appear in the documentary chain of operators targeting regulated EU markets without national authorization.

Volt, a KNF-licensed open-banking provider backed by top-tier investors appears in recorded deposit flows for illegal offshore casinos targeting users in Germany. FinTelegram’s review shows Volt’s checkout embedded in payment journeys routed through crypto-linked intermediaries, raising hard questions about merchant due diligence, payment blocking under German gambling law, and the compliance perimeter for regulated PISPs.

A new FinTelegram Rail Atlas analysis shows Perspecteev SAS, the French payment institution behind the Bridge brand, appearing in deposit flows linked to offshore casino brands targeting German users — with opaque gateway labels such as “SaferSEPA” sitting between the casino front end and the regulated payment-initiation layer.
