When you join in an online casino to play for real you will be making financial transactions with the casino in the form of deposit and withdrawals. You will find that you can always make a deposit when you first join but most casinos will require that you verify your account before you deposit much money or request a withdrawal. This guide covers the verification process.

Unlike at a land-based casino where you will be asked for ID in person when you play online you will be asked to send some documents. Obviously the casino needs to confirm a few things with you such as your age, your address and your deposit details.

This protects the casino from fraud and protects you from closing your online casino account due to incorrect information. Below we have some security tips to use when you are sending documents.

Verification Documents

The documents required might vary a bit from casino to casino but in general you will need to send the following via fax or email:

-A copy of your valid photo ID
-A copy of a recent bill confirming your address
-A copy of the front and back of your credit card (If you deposit with it)

Straight away you might be thinking that it is not a good idea to send such documents to an overseas company. The fact of the matter is that you will have to if you want to play online and withdraw your winnings.

Sending Copies

Most banks will tell you to never send a copy of the front and back of your card to anyone. The trick is to block out some of the numbers on the front and the back. The casino will still see that the card is yours without the whole number being on the fax or photo. You should also block out the CVV number on the back of the card. This means that in the unlikely event that the fax or scan is seen by the wrong person there is nothing they can do with the images.

If you are playing in the most trusted online casino you have nothing to fear about sending in docs, and should ideally send them in as soon as possible. Document usually takes between 24 to 72 hours to be approved – online casinos have risk teams that scrutinize over every detail to check for tampering and if they see something suspicious they will often ask you to resend a clearer copy for it to be approved, which can lead to the temptation of reversing your withdrawal so you can keep on playing.

The reason it is better to send them in sooner rather than later is that you will not be able to withdraw until your documents are approved – you can still request a withdrawal but it will remain pending. If you wait until your first withdrawal before sending in your documents, you will need to wait until they approved before the withdrawal will be processed.

Once you choose the most trusted online casino to play at you should send in the documentation right away – you will avoid dealing with the hassle and potential frustration of the added delay in collecting your winnings when you claim your first withdrawal.
