At the camera

How do I get it right the first time?

You will have a shot list for each upload and know what sends a picture back.

You, holding still

Point the camera at your photo identification on a flat, well-lit surface, all four corners inside the frame. Glare from a lamp or a window is the usual reason a shot comes back.

The full page

For proof of address, photograph the whole page with your name, your street and today's date showing. A folded or cropped sheet hides the details the checker needs to read.

Both sides of the card

Show the payment card image with the middle digits and the security code covered, your name and the last four visible. Both sides, if the card carries your name on the back.

Check your inbox

Watch the inbox tied to your account for a request for a fresh copy. Answer it the same day, since each new upload restarts the 9 hours from zero.

No surprises

Before the check, after the upload

Here is what each paper confirms and what your copy has to show clearly.

Photo identification

ConfirmsWho you are

Must showFull name, photo, expiry date, all edges in frame

Proof of address

ConfirmsWhere you live

Must showYour name, street address, a date within the last three months

Payment card image

ConfirmsThe card is yours

Must showCardholder name and last four digits, middle digits covered

Read this before you resend

Fix mismatched details. A name, date of birth or address on the paper that differs from your account details gets the whole upload refused, even by a single letter. Match the profile to the paper before sending Check a marriage or deed poll name change

Old date, new bill. Proof of address loses its value when the issue date has slipped too far back, because the check needs to show where you live now. Send a statement from the last few months Pick a utility bill issued recently

Show the whole page. Corner shadows, a thumb over the number or a cropped edge make a reader unable to confirm the paper, so the file goes back to you. Lay the document flat under bright light Fit all four corners inside the frame

What the funds check shows you

Wino Casino holds a licence from the Malta Gaming Authority, MGA/B2C/602/2007, and that licence makes the source of funds check a condition of trading. It runs on ordinary accounts too, so treat it as paperwork rather than suspicion. Answering it in one go keeps your cash-out moving.

Any one of these may be requested, depending on how your money arrives.

Recent bank statement
Payslip or employer letter
Sale or inheritance document
Crypto or broker statement
Savings account summary

Check timing

Why now and not earlier?

Clears the worry that a check means trouble, when in fact timing follows normal triggers

Why check a new card?

Swap in a card, wallet or bank transfer we have not seen from you and we confirm the new route belongs to you before it carries money.

Before, no payout after

Nothing leaves the account until identity is confirmed, so the first cash-out is the latest point at which the papers are requested.

Bigger than usual sums

A sum far outside your usual pattern prompts a funds question about where it came from, and payment proof for that single transaction.

Align the details

Spelling that differs between your profile and your papers stops the match, and we ask for a fresh copy that lines up.

Before you upload

What slows a check down?

After this, you will know which answer fits your own check.

Are my documents safe once I upload them?+

Yes. Everything you send travels under 256-bit AES encryption and is opened only by the team running the check. Your papers are used to confirm who you are, nothing more.

Can I send my documents from my phone?+

Yes. Phone photos work as long as the whole page sits in the frame and the text reads clearly. Glare from a lamp or a window is the usual culprit when one fails.

Why does the casino ask about my source of funds?+

It is a routine part of the licence conditions, not a sign that anything is wrong. Casinos have to know where money used for play comes from, and the same question goes to many players.

When will I need to verify my account?+

The licence requires it at the latest before your first withdrawal. It can come sooner, though, so be ready for a request at registration or at your first deposit.

Which regulator licenses Wino Casino and what is the number?+

The Malta Gaming Authority issues the licence, and the number to quote is MGA/B2C/602/2007. Wino Casino Ltd. has held it since 2007. That regulator sets the checks described on this page.

My ID was turned down, so what should I do?+

You will get a message naming the problem, usually a glare, a cropped edge or an old address. Send a fresh copy to [email protected] and the check picks up from there.
