Quick answerMost verification is automatic. If the casino asks for documents, upload a photo ID and a proof of address through its secure upload page.

Step by step

  1. Open the verification or documents page in your account.
  2. Photograph your passport or driving licence, with all four corners showing.
  3. Photograph a bill or bank statement from the last three months showing your name and address.
  4. Upload both.
  5. Wait for confirmation, usually within a day or two.

Why documents are rejected

Blurry or cropped photos, expired ID, or an address that differs from the one you registered.

Is it safe?

At a licensed casino your documents are covered by data protection law. Use the upload page, not ordinary email.

Proof of payment method

You may be asked for a photo of your card with the middle digits covered.

Common slips

  • Cropping a corner off the ID.
  • Sending a bill older than three months.
  • Registering with a nickname.
