Questions we get asked

Straight answers on certifications, contracts and who operates the controls, for security, legal and procurement review.

Book a security review
Which certifications and audits can you evidence?+

Aklamio is ISO 27001 certified and SOC 2 compliant, GDPR and CCPA compliant, and FCA regulated in the United Kingdom. The certificate, the statement of applicability and pre-completed security questionnaires are available on request, and supporting documents are shared under non-disclosure agreement. Most security reviews are answered from that pack without a bespoke questionnaire.

What does legal need before signing?+

A data processing agreement and standard contractual clauses, both of which Aklamio provides in draft to your counsel on request. On reward payouts Aklamio administers identity verification per market where a payout requires it, and payouts to frequent earners can carry VAT. Participants remain responsible for their own tax obligations.

Does every market and brand need its own contract?+

No. 50 markets, every sales channel and every brand operate under a single contract, a single ledger and a single integration. Per-market vendor selection is not required, which is the difference between one security review and one commercial negotiation versus repeating both per country.

Who runs fraud prevention, us or Aklamio?+

Mainly Aklamio. Fraud detection and operations are delivered as part of the managed service and audited per program, so suspicious claims are caught before they are paid rather than reconciled afterwards by your team. The controls are the same across every program you run, since they sit in the platform rather than in each program's configuration. Some cases still need a short input from you, because we hold the reward and claim data but not the account history behind it, so confirming whether a flagged customer is genuine is quicker on your side than ours.

How many security reviews does adding a second program take?+

None. Referral, sales promotions, contract buyout, upsell and cross-sell, retention, winback and partner enablement are delivered on one platform under one master services agreement and one security review. Adding a program later is a configuration change rather than a new vendor assessment.
