Account registration does require several bits of personal information. Due to regulatory requirements, we're required to verify your identity before allowing account access. Due to these requirements, we may ask you to provide documentation in order to prove your identity. All information provided during registration is kept completely secure and confidential.
- Full Name
- Residential Address: We must verify you live in a legal wagering state.
- Phone Number
- Email Address: As part of our main form of communication regarding your account, you may also receive marketing emails for different promotional offers.
- Social Security Number: We only need the last 4 digits, this is to verify your identity. If you later hit a taxable wager, we will then require a full 9 digit social for IRS tax reporting purposes.
- Date of Birth: This is used to verify your identity and that you are of legal wagering age.
If we are unable to verify your identity during registration with the information provided, we may require further documentation before your account can be created.
What happens upon account creation?
