Working as a team with Askmebet
This playbook explains how to organize, operate, and scale a high performance team around Askmebet — covering roles, governance, handoffs, processes, tooling, KPIs, and culture. Use it as an operational blueprint for day to day collaboration and for onboarding new hires or partners.
1. Core team roles & responsibilities
• Product / GM — owns vision, roadmap, prioritization, commercial outcomes (handle, GGR, margins).
• Engineering — platform services, APIs, backend, realtime engine, deployment pipelines, SRE responsibilities.
• QA / Test Automation — acceptance tests, regression suites, games/integration testing, performance testing.
• Payments & Finance Ops — payment routing, reconciliations, settlement workflows, reserve accounting, chargeback handling.
• Compliance & Risk — KYC/AML rules, license requirements, sanctions screening, dispute remediation.
• Trust & Safety / Fraud — detection rules, manual reviews, escalations, device/fingerprint strategy.
• Customer Support / Ops — player support, payouts, escalations, SLA adherence.
• Business Development / Partnerships — onboarding content suppliers, acquirers, affiliate networks.
• Marketing / Growth — acquisition funnels, CRM, promotions design, bonus abuse mitigation.
• Data & BI — KPI dashboards, cohort analysis, LTV/CAC modeling, ad hoc analytics.
Each role should have a single owner with documented responsibilities and measurable KPIs.
2. Team structure & cadence
• Small stage: cross functional pods (product, eng, payments, ops) per market/vertical.
• Growth stage: centralized platform teams + market squads for localization and regulatory needs.
• Cadence:
o Daily standups within squads.
o Weekly cross functional sync (product, payments, compliance, ops).
o Monthly business review: handle, GGR, chargebacks, reserves, liquidity.
o Quarterly roadmap & strategic review.
3. Handoffs & runbooks
• Define clear API contracts and integration checklists for partners (games, payments, KYC).
• Create runbooks for common flows: onboarding a new market, payment rail failure, player payout failure, and high value disputes. Include step owners, SLAs, and escalation matrix.
• Maintain a shared incident runbook and post mortem template (blameless, corrective actions, owners, deadlines).
4. Communication & tooling
• Centralized docs: Confluence/Notion for policies, runbooks, and architecture.
• Issue tracking: Jira/Trello for engineering and operations tasks with SLAs for priority levels.
• Alerts & SRE: PagerDuty + logging (ELK/Datadog) for latency, errors, and reconciliation anomalies.
• Collaboration: Slack/MS Teams channels per function and cross functional channels for incidents and commercial syncs.
• Data stack: central warehouse (Snowflake/BigQuery), BI (Looker/Tableau), and daily ingestion for transaction feeds.
5. Onboarding & knowledge transfer
• New joiner 30/60/90 plan: core systems, compliance overview, demo of settlement flows, and shadowing support shifts.
• Partner onboarding checklist: legal, DPA, API keys, sandbox testing, settlement examples, and pilot milestones.
• Monthly brown bags for cross team learning (fraud patterns, payment rails, regulatory changes).
6. KPIs & dashboards (what to monitor)
• Operational: uptime, API latency, mean time to resolve (MTTR), reconciliation variance.
• Financial: handle, GGR, Net Revenue, payment fees (% of handle), provider payouts, reserves held.
• Risk: chargeback rate, fraud detection precision/recall, KYC pass rate, manual review volume.
• Growth: new users, deposit conversion, retention cohorts (D1/D7/D30), LTV / CAC.
Make dashboards accessible with alerts for threshold breaches.
7. Security, compliance & data protection
• Enforce least privilege, MFA, and role based access. Keep production secrets in vaults.
• Regular pen tests, vulnerability scans, and data processing agreements for vendors.
• Document data retention, deletion policy, and incident response procedures aligned to licensing jurisdictions.
8. Incident management & post mortems
• Triage, containment, remediation, communication (internal + regulated disclosure if required).
• Run blameless post mortems within 72 hours; publish learnings and track action completion.
9. Culture & operating principles
• Customer first (player safety & fairness).
• Data driven decisions and measurable experiments.
• Ownership and accountability: “single owner, shared responsibility.”
• Continuous improvement: automate repetitive work, invest in SRE & resilience.
10. Scaling tips
• Automate reconciliation, KYC flows, and payouts where possible.
• Split read/write workloads (CQRS) and use streaming for near real time monitoring.
• Keep 2 providers for critical rails (payments, KYC) to avoid single point failure.
• Periodically review reserve policy with finance and compliance to optimize liquidity.
