ACCOUNT SAFETY

How We Protect Your Account

Account security isn't an afterthought here. Every piece of data you submit during registration — your personal details, ID documents, payment credentials — travels over an encrypted connection. We don't store full payment credentials on our servers; PayPal and Venmo handle their own authentication. Identity verification is a one-time step that keeps your account and your withdrawals tied to you and no one else. We also follow data-handling practices that keep your information from being shared with third parties outside of what's required to run the platform in eligible states.

SSL Encryption All data submitted during registration — email, ID documents, personal details — travels over an SSL-encrypted connection. Nothing moves in plain text.
Identity Verification A one-time ID check ties your account to you. It protects against unauthorized access and makes sure withdrawals process to the correct account holder.
Payment Credential Safety PayPal and Venmo manage their own authentication on their side. We never store your full wallet credentials or card numbers in our system.
Data Protection Your registration data isn't shared with third parties outside of what state-law compliance and payment processing require. You can request a data summary at any time.
FUNDING YOUR ACCOUNT

Local Payment Methods at the Cashier

Once your account is verified, the cashier shows your available deposit options. PayPal connects directly to your existing balance or linked bank account — no need to re-enter card numbers. Venmo works the same way; send from the app using the account details shown and confirm with your PIN. Play+ gives you a prepaid card path if you prefer to keep casino funds separate from your main checking account. All three are wallet-familiar options most US players already have on their phones. Availability is confirmed at checkout based on your state and account status.

PayPal Link your PayPal balance or connected bank account. Deposits route through your existing PayPal wallet — no new credentials needed at the cashier.
Venmo Send your deposit from the Venmo app using the account reference displayed. Confirm with your PIN and funds reflect once the transfer clears.
Play+ Load a Play+ prepaid card to keep casino funds separate from your everyday checking account. Works like a debit card at the cashier window.

How the Registration Process Works

Creating your account takes a few short steps. Enter your name, email address, date of birth, and a password you'll use to log back in. After you submit the form, we send a verification link to your email — click it to confirm your address and activate the account. From there, identity verification asks for

a government-issued ID and, in some cases, a quick selfie match. That step protects your account and makes sure payouts go to the right person. Once your identity clears, your payment options — PayPal, Venmo, Play+ — appear in the cashier. Our support team is reachable via live chat if anything stalls during the process.

Account access is subject to state law; we'll let you know at the eligibility check if your region is covered.

  • Email Verification A confirmation link lands in your inbox right after you submit. Click it to activate the account — no activation, no lobby access.
  • Identity Check Upload a government-issued ID once your email is confirmed. This step unlocks cashier access and protects your payout path.
  • Wallet Connection PayPal, Venmo, and Play+ appear in your cashier after identity clears. Link the wallet you already use and your first deposit is straightforward.
  • Live Chat Help If the form throws an error or verification stalls, our live chat team can walk you through it. Reach us from the help icon on any page.

REGISTRATION HELP

Get Help With Your Account Setup

Registration questions come up — a verification email that doesn't arrive, an ID upload that won't process, or a payment method that isn't showing at checkout. We have a few ways to get you unstuck without waiting long. Reach out through the channel that fits the moment and we'll sort it from our end.

Live Chat The chat icon on every page connects you to our account team. Useful when the form stalls, your verification email is delayed, or a payment step is unclear.
Email Support Send a message from the Help page and include a screenshot if the issue is visual. We respond to account and identity questions as quickly as the queue allows.
Help Center Our account help section covers common registration steps — email verification, ID upload formats, and how to link PayPal or Venmo after your account activates.

Common Questions About Signing Up

Got a question before you start the form? Here are the ones we hear most often from people creating a new account or returning to verify their details.

You'll need your full legal name, date of birth, email address, and a password. Identity verification after signup asks for a government-issued photo ID.

Most ID uploads are reviewed promptly, though timing varies. Clear, well-lit photos of your ID process faster than blurry or cropped uploads.

PayPal and Venmo appear in your cashier once identity verification clears. They won't show at checkout until that step is complete.

Play+ is a prepaid card option that keeps your casino funds in a separate wallet from your main checking account. It's optional — PayPal and Venmo work just as well.

Check your spam or junk folder first. If it's not there, use live chat or email support and we'll resend the confirmation link from our end.

Account access depends on your state's law. We run an eligibility check during registration and let you know if your region is currently supported.
