How to navigate your Sportsbet.io My Account section

Apart from sports betting, you may also come across certain concerns or complex aspects of your Sportsbet.io account. One important area is your Sportsbet io My Account section as it verifies your identity, allows you to play and withdraw funds, and ensures a secure betting environment.

To make sure everything goes smoothly, check out this Sportsbet.io account guide.

Sportsbet KYC

KYC, or Know Your Customer, is the standard process of identity verification imposed as a requirement for licensed gambling companies. This ensures that no player falsifies their identity for unethical purposes. For instance, Sportsbet.io wants to ensure rewards are credited to the rightful player.

Sportsbet.io will notify you through a pop-up or email if you need to submit documents for KYC purposes. Moreover, for a smoother betting experience, you can proactively submit your own KYC requirements if you wish, even before the platform requests it from you. An ID is one example of the KYC documents required. Here are the conditions when submitting an ID:

This must be a government-issued ID card with your photo. Accepted IDs include a passport, driver’s licence, or national ID.
The ID must be up-to-date, not damaged, it’s valid, and all the details must be visible.
The submitted driver’s licence or national ID must be visible on both sides.
All four sides of the ID must be visible, and no part should be covered.

How to upload documents

Here is an easy step-by-step guide to help you submit your KYC documents.

Sign in to your Sportsbet.io account.
Click on your username at the top-right corner of the homepage.
Select the ‘Account’ option.

Click on ‘Verify Account’.

Read the terms and conditions to ensure you are fully aware of the KYC process and its purpose.

Click on ‘Start verification’.

You may be asked to select your location from the available options. Choose the correct location and click on ‘Continue’.

Select the issuing country of the document you want to submit and then select the document type.

Scroll down and click on the upload buttons to upload the front and back of your ID card.

Select ‘Next’ and follow the prompts to complete the upload process.

Once the Sportsbet.io team verifies your account, you will be notified promptly via email. The same applies if the sports betting verification process is rejected.

Sportsbet.io is licenced and regulated by Curacao eGaming, ensuring that the KYC process is both necessary and secure. Your documents are handled with utmost confidentiality and stored safely by the platform.

Google Authenticator (2FA)

Google Authenticator, or 2FA, adds an extra layer of security to your Sportsbet.io account. It protects your account from unauthorised access by third-party entities. It uses a software token that requires you to undergo a two-step verification process.

How it works

Install the Google Authenticator application on your smartphone or any compatible handheld device. Here's how it works:

When you log in to your Sportsbet.io account, enter your username or email, and password.
Open the Google Authenticator application to generate a six-digit One-Time Password (OTP).
Copy the OTP and paste it alongside your account password when logging in.

Even if other people gain access to your email address, username, and password, it will be difficult for them to access your account because of the 2FA. Only you would have access to the Google Authenticator app, which is crucial for completing the verification process.
