Registration and KYC

1. Registration

   Registration needs a mobile number (used as username), a password, a date of birth and an OTP sent by SMS; no documents are asked at sign-up. The terms say the personal details may include mobile number and full legal name, and the Responsible Gaming Policy says new customers may be asked for a photocopy of an identification document such as a driver's licence or identity card to verify age and identity.

   Documents:

   • Driving license – Example named in the Responsible Gaming Policy for verifying the age and identity of new customers.
   • National id – Identity card, named in the Responsible Gaming Policy as an example for new customers.
2. Before withdrawal

   Customers must provide a copy of proof of identity (name must match the registered name), proof of address and copies of the cards used to deposit when withdrawing. Documents may be requested at any time by the Player Security team before a withdrawal is processed; below NGN 250,000 funds are normally processed without documents. The withdrawal stays pending until the documents are received and approved; if they are not supplied within 4 weeks of the request the account may be locked and winnings voided.

   Documents:

   • Address proof – Recent utility bill or document confirming residence, such as an electricity or telephone bill; must not be older than 90 days.
   • Driving license – Copy of a valid photographic identification document, such as a passport or driver's licence.
   • Passport – Copy of a valid photographic identification document, such as a passport or driver's licence.
   • Payment ownership – Copy of the front and back of all cards used to deposit (only the first 6 and last 4 digits need to be visible).
3. Threshold triggered

   If the withdrawal amount is more than NGN 250,000 but below NGN 500,000, the account has to be verified before the withdrawal is paid; the player receives an email listing the documents needed.

   Threshold

   250,000 NGN

4. Threshold triggered

   If the withdrawal amount is more than NGN 500,000, the account has to be verified before payment and the player also has to meet a Betway representative before winnings are paid out to the bank account.

   Threshold

   500,000 NGN
