Gambling and KYC should never be hand in hand when we are talking about doing something illegal and then notifying government for it.

KYC was suppose to be "know your customer" as in if there is someone who is wanted or did something illegal, government should know about it, how will government know about it? Each KYC goes through some software and if there is nothing wrong with you, they don't care about you, but if you are wanted for a reason you will be caught, same principle as giving your ID in a hotel.

However in gambling, many of us are not doing it legally, it is not highly illegal neither, maybe you won't face any troubles, but surely it is not fully legal neither, so when you give your KYC to a casino, that is literally telling the world I did something wrong and catch me for it, I rather not.

Some of the Gambling casinos I've seen are requiring its user to conduct a KYC (not mandatory but they said there's a chance or something) however my concern is that the gambling casino is not licensed are you going to trust this or not? Imagine winning a big jackpot and they asked for you to conduct KYC but they are not licensed.
When you play on a casino whose terms and conditions say that they might ask for ID proofs then it is always better to check their license and make bets with a clear thought that I might be asked to provide my identity proof anytime I win big or get lucky. So if that's ok for you then continue betting else switch to a new casino that either doesn't ask for ID proofs or is licensed and you feel safe providing them with your identity proof.

I haven't been asked to provide my identity yet from any casino or even sportsbooks but I am well ready and prepared to provide them the day and moment they ask me because I make bets only on reputed sites and I know they won't misuse or misplace my documents.

In my experience, I have not seen or encountered any gambling casino that requires KYC. If ever that you encountered one, please make a background check of that casino. It is much better if you will avoid them and prevent yourself from submitting any of your information. Most of the online gambling casino respects the anonymous identity of their users, they did not require them to submit an ID but they will require you to input email address for verification.
Me either, I think KYC is not applicable to casinos and any other gambling site, if the gambler doesn't want to let other know his identity then its okay, and even if it is needed? I will not give any ID for KYC even in trading if the exchange requires me to pass kyc for me to be able to withdraw I rather not register with that. Sending kyc is risky, and also as far as I know it is not needed in this industry.

We should not give our KYC to a casino that does not have licensed. Personally, I do not even want to provide my private data to licensed casino. No way, I would believe that my personal information will safe in their hand. Many of them will actually sell our data to a third companies for ads or some sorts of that

Since the crypto gambling industry develops, there are many online xasinos which do not require you to provide anything. They provide me a friendly and convenient atsmophere where you can enjoy gamble without worrying losing your precious information. If a casino force me to give them my ID, I will undoubtedbly ignore it and choose another platform to play. The only thing they can extract from me is my fake email address
Agree. We shouldn't give our trust to anyone most especially if you are going to play in an online gambling site. If we give our trust and personal information to a gambling site there are chances that we it may cause problems. And also our personal information may use in a scam or what and if you gonna ask me, it can be use in as a fake identity. Instead of earning you gain problems not money.

Imagine winning a big jackpot and they asked for you to conduct KYC but they are not licensed.

If it's not a licensed gambling casino, there's no way I would trust my KYC information. And I think only the licensed gambling casino would require KYC because the government required them to do it to their users. If you win a big jackpot, and they required you to conduct KYC, then it's time to rethink if you should trust your KYC. My only advice is to switch to another gambling website that has a license already.

They are going to lose their reputation if they are going to ask KYC if a gambler just registered, they usually asked this if you've won a big amount, and they think you are violating one of their rules on their terms of services, you have no choice but to undergo to keep that amount
, I don't like this practice because many gamblers wants to keep their privacy, they are playing here to protect their identity, this is one instance where the gambler is held hostage and I have seen it happens many times.
But some reputable gambling site do not do this even if the amount is huge, they just ban cheaters and do not ask them to undergo KYC.

If you are doubting, then why would you give your information to an unlicensed casino? I think it's simple as that since you also doubt the safety of your information. So just like what others said, it's better to avoid those kinds of casinos and there are lots of casinos that don't ask for KYC, so if you don't like this kind of requirement especially for unlicensed casinos, look for other casinos.

That's a tricky one. You won a big amount but you need to provide KYC and the gambling website is unlicensed I think you are in a risky position here's what might happen:

1. You give KYC and they give you the money (Good)
2. You give KYC and they didn't pay you (Bad) - They may use your personal information.
3. You don't give KYC, they cancel your winnings.

It's really risky but that's what might happen.

I'd not use any sort of online casinos that are not licensed and that have the terms where they could ask for KYC.
KYC is needed for license casinos to stay safe in case the government of USA asks information about the individual gambling on the site. If they are not licensed, they are not legal in the US and they would face legal issues themselves in the government got interested in them.
As of KYC as I already said, every licensed casino are obliged to enforce KYC if asked to.

I think that could be dangerous I think the casinos are asking for KYC for the purpose of the anti money laundering or fraud and the casino was required to do it due to the law on their license if the casino doesn't have a license then why are they going to conduct it? To avoid illegal money? wherein fact they are illegal on the first place for running an unlicensed casino.

Very funny for those non license casino house who are asking for KYC, they are not tied to any law as they don't have any license
at all so why bother to ask the customers?

No sense as they needed to verified because there's money laundering something as they are not catered by that particular law
unless they provide the license as the right to implement such rules.

We don't know if they are illegal or legal because if they have a license for their casino, they are legal, and their members need to do KYC. But we have many casinos that don't require KYC for their members, so we can search for that casino and join them. We don't know what their reason to do KYC if they don't license their business. But to be clear, we don't need to use them to be the place to playing gambling.

KYC in gambling online? Well, if ever they will require this to all of their players I won't submit any of my documents.
But as long as I can able to play using their gambling site I will continue to play of course! Although, I do agreed with you that most of them
are not licensed.

It will help us if you can name those gambling sites that ask for KYC, gamblers play and trust in gambling casinos that protect their identity, and they do not expect KYC as long as they playing fair if you won a big jackpot and you are playing fair there's no need to undergo KYC they will only ask it for verification that you are not breaking rules and it should be on a gambling site that as a good reputation.
In recent time we have too many cases just of this because mostly users trying to cheat system and casino's ask for this and sometime in case of big wins they ask for this all but if any reputable and licsenced casino asking this all for then I have no problem becaue I will feel secure and good and for any casino which is not completing his own requirements then this can create problems.

I am not a supporter of the KYC procedure, although I understand that in some casinos this is necessary due to regulatory requirements.

In the case of a major win at a casino that does not have a license, I will try to connect an attorney to the case and only after that will pass the KYC.

Since when did gambling casinos require KYC, as far as I am concerned, many gambling sites do not require KYC even though they want to withdraw. The system at casino gambling never holds any prize events or any kind of airdrop so they don't need KYC for every member who creates a casino gambling account. I think there is a mistake if there are casino gambling sites that require KYC. It's better if there is a casino gambling site that requires KYC to just leave it and look for another site with a better and faster process without having to KYC.

I definitely will because there is no other choice.  for me, it is okay to do KYC when withdrawing the jackpot bonus on an unlicensed gambling site.  I know the risks (personal data being sold or terrorized and so on) but surely what I enter is my old data, not new (before I got married) so the privacy of my latest personal data is still safe..

Regulated or not. Don't trust to anyone your personal information and that's all. If you are planning to win a big amount on casinos then expect that you will need to sacrifice your personal information.

Well you are right, if you are playing with big amounts and you win big you will be asked for KYC! I don't like it, but when I am asked for KYC I simply do it, I trust the site where I spend time and money, why to not trust them with personal information too!?
never win a big amount yet but if what you guys saying is true then ill have to limit my bets now because i dont feel the need of doing a kyc  . i try done kyc before but i cant pass them , i have a problem to some of my infos . if i have won big before my winning will only be forfeited because of this problem . if you dont like kyc why force yourself to do it ? its already enough that you spend your time and money on them , arent they still contented and wants more on you and what they ask is not simple but they are asking about your real identity

It is better to avoid such casino, if they are not licensed then the identity or the information of the gamblers. Or maybe avoid it even if it is licensed because we should not trust anyone with our identity because it is risky. We can just choose any other casino that has a good reputation and does not require KYC verification.

Choosing some new casino, that doesn't have an active topic here (or any other place) is risky for all sorts of reasons, but the most important is to not get paid after you won! It's the risk you take when you are choosing, it's why some people always recommend choosing casinos from this forum.
I have an interesting story about this, I tried one casino (orient express), deposited +0.02 btc, in that time it was like 50-60 dollars. I had luck with some bonuses and I went over $200. I wanted to withdraw and surprise you can't withdraw bitcoins! Only paypal and bank account, which I don't have! I had a long talk with their support about it, but it in the end I couldn't do anything! I just spent my money gambling there without possibility to withdraw!  

Regulated or not. Don't trust to anyone your personal information and that's all. If you are planning to win a big amount on casinos then expect that you will need to sacrifice your personal information.

Just consider the ones which has a good reputation and being genuine from long time. And if you have no option buy must do KYC then on such sites you can prefer over others. Else if one give credentials to any unknown sites then chances of their data leak is very easy as you have no idea how it can be misuse.

With the current landscape of the Internet rife with news of identity theft and data leaks, it scares me to put personal details in my online activities. Gambling sites, especially the established ones surely have the ability to procure a safe data base for their customer information protection, although I am still skeptic because as technology in security innovates, parallel to it is attackers advancing too.

Depends on their reputation. If the casino is not regulated and has no registered license (then again, how are they operating legally?), they don't have to do any KYC for legal reasons but for their own safety such as avoiding self referral abuse, multi account abuse and so on. If you win a big jackpot and then they ask for KYC, its totally up to you. If you have been playing there for long and know them well, then I guess you are safe. If its a new random casino, then its better not to submit any KYC or ID documents.
Though, why would you be playing in a unlicensed casino? Huge risk.

It's 50-50 they may ask you to give KYC and once you comply you they either take your personal info and still not give the jackpot you got.
It is important that whenever you are planning to play on some casinos you should know if they would ask KYC in the future.

If you win a big jackpot then there is no way for you to not conduct kyc if they asking for it, unless you don't want to get your rewards and widraw your winnings.

Before using the gambling website make sure you  trust it  before playing so in case they asked you are prefered to do it any time once you win a lot.

In that case it's tough to take the decision. Personally I don't look for the license of a casino. I just check their reputation and fairness of the game. But I don't like the KYC system. Though I play at a lot of casino which may ask for KYC verification. And while it comes to unlicensed casino I prefer to ignore them. Don't know why people are so concerned about KYC. If you aren't from restricted place and not doing anything wrong, you shouldn't worry much. If you win big in a reputed casino and they going to pay you after providing KYC then do it.

This is kind a skeptical since they don't have any licensed to have the audacity to require KYC for the players of their site. I'm not a gambler but my opinion about KYC whether they are licenced or not will be always negative. I don't trust other people that I don't know personally, especially in the cryptocurrency world to handle my personal information "security" for me to play in their gambling platform.

It would be more ideal to find other casinos that's more trusted that requires KYC or not rather than to gamble on gambling sites that you have mentioned. Imagine having hart times making profits and in the end you'll never have the chance to withdraw your profits because they're just scams.

Wellyou come too far because hitting a jackpot is a once in a million chance.

But yeah you must be careful with that and better not to play in no licensed casinos.
and besides there are good existing casino here and out of forum that you need not to worry in case you hit jackpot.

If you don't trust the casino, you are free to select the other casino to play. I am sure that you will easily find the casino you want, and even if the casino is not licensed, some of the casinos will not use KYC for their users. Perhaps you need to read the TOS before you register at the casino, so you know if the casino needs to conduct KYC or not, you know what you need to do.

You can choose the casino which has licensed, so when you conduct KYC, you will no doubt with them because they can have the responsibility to take care of the user's data.

Well, if you can provide your identity and you want that money badly (I guess everyone would) then you should abide on them, I don't think they'll change their minds if they already asked for it. If I were you just gamble on crypto casinos that are proven by the community, has been proven trustworthy, and has lot of good reviews and we can find it here.

If you're from the most restricted country on gambling better if you first read the casino's TOS before doing some deposits and playing mostly this scenario do happen. If you don't prefer an unlicensed casino then it's best to avoid it before worst case scenario may happen like what you assume.

To make it simple if you are not comfortable providing your credentials on any platform don't use it. There are a lot of gambling platforms out there that are trusted and licensed where KYC is mandatory and for increased deposit/withdrawal purposes. Privacy always comes first, the risk of having an unlicensed platform handling your personal details is high.
I also want to add that if you can, go to a physical casino, they do not care that much about personal information. You should know by now that Internet is a wild world rife of scams and cons, so you better get your guard up when doing transaction or putting personal information.

Usually, gamblers don’t want to know their identity. And for those gamblers, it may avoid gambling platfrom requiring KYC,
(if there is still a gambling platform that does not use KYC, usually they will switch here). But back again to each gambler,
KYC on the gambling platform it needs or not? But when compared to gambling platforms that do not require KYC for their users,
surely it will crowd the platform with visitors. Actually, KYC for any platform is no problem, also for gambling platforms.
If there are users who want to cooperate with that platform. The owner may determine the best for their platform.

To make it simple if you are not comfortable providing your credentials on any platform don't use it. There are a lot of gambling platforms out there that are trusted and licensed where KYC is mandatory and for increased deposit/withdrawal purposes. Privacy always comes first, the risk of having an unlicensed platform handling your personal details is high.

Some of the Gambling casinos I've seen are requiring its user to conduct a KYC (not mandatory but they said there's a chance or something) however my concern is that the gambling casino is not licensed are you going to trust this or not? Imagine winning a big jackpot and they asked for you to conduct KYC but they are not licensed.


If you are in doubt then don't Engaged just a simple rule

because it is you that will be in issue so better avoid since there are licensed and legit sites that normally don't ask for KYC there is no need to Out your self in doubt and trouble.

And besides we have tons of gambling sites why bother for those that seems not trusted for you?

There are a lot of gambling casinos which do not require KYC. Although there is also an advantage of doing such, but I still prefer not to give out my personal infos especially with unsured online platforms.

Anyhow, somr online casinos guaranteed you have a secured account if you do KYC. I know someone which has a high VIP level and sold his account to the other user. The receiver did not know that the owner did some KYC in hid accou t and scam the receiver and manage to get back his own account by confirming that it was his own account and made a statement to the support that his account was hacked but the real truth was he sell it.

See? They can either do something with that KYC and I am not really into that thing ever since  even in trusted and established online gambling sites.

If they are not licensed they probably do not have any legal basis for asking for a KYC. KYC is a legal requirement by authorities to counter money laundering, terrorist financing, etc. If a gambling casino is not legally obliged to gather personal information from their customers, why would they require it from them? I will definitely stay away from this kind of casino. This action is shady and therefore a red flag to me.

If it happens, then it is not their mistake, but your mistake. Why do you choose unlicensed casinos to gamble?
It is a fundamental mistake, mate. There are too many licensed casinos and even popular casinos, you shouldn't choose the unlicensed one. I assume you are not a newcomer or beginner as you stated "Some of the Gambling casinos I've seen", it means you know well about casinos. If you make a fundamental mistake it is not because you have less knowledge but you are careless.

I do not know if I will risk my identity just to get the prizes if they suddenly require me a KYC. I think I will not get the prize even though it is a big amount of money because for me identity should be protected and there is a big possibility that it will give me problems in the near future. We do not know what they are doing with our identity and it is the reason why we should avoid uploading any personal documents. I want to protect my identity not only in trading but also in gambling, I will never open an account in a gambling site that requiring their customers to verify their identity. Choosing a good casino is not hard as people thinks but you need to allocate hours of researching in order to verify if it is a legit one or not. I do not know if there are gamblers out there who prefer to use casinos that requiring KYC, for sure we have same mindset and we want to protect our identity.

Maybe you should avoid gambling casinos that are not licensed, there is a high possibility that your identity may be used for some purposes and your funds will not be safe, most of the casino that does not requires KYC do not require KYC as well when you are going to do withdrawal or deposit, so you better doubt that casino gambling, anyway, can you tell us the name of that casino gambling so we may become aware as well and avoid that casino. There are many licensed casino gambling, just leave the casino that has no license and focus on the legit one.

Unlicensed only means they can't comply with the proper regulations of a gambling website, maybe their platform is illegal or they have something bad doing to their customers. I wouldn't even try to gamble on those sites even if they have some good promotions or bonuses. I'm pretty sure they have something fishy to do that's why they are asking for KYC.

I don't think I will if it's not, a licensed gambling casino, if a gambling site is regulated they will abide by the authorities rules of confidentiality of their user's information, something that you cannot say on unlicensed casinos even if the gambling casino is reputable, some gambling casinos are asking verification if you've won a big amount to make sure that you are compliant and you are of the right age.

Nothing is valuable than my personal information, I will give up on that prize instead of sending my documents to the scammers. It is possible too, the scam gambling website will confiscate the winnings and use my documents for cheating other people. The scammers have no limit and they can do anything for making money, my final opinion is to avoid sharing docs with thieves. There is no need to worry about the KYC if the regulated organizations control the casino because in all cases our sent data will be regulated with the GDPR. GDPR is for the EU area but I am sure there are similar customer rights protection rules for the rest of world countries.

TBH, if the amount worth risk the personal details there is nothing wrong going for it unless the online casino is a proven scam. The idea is to verify the account, after getting the funds changing the data on personal documents is not impossible. After editing the passport data, the sent documents will be useless for selling on the darknet or for doing shady things, IMHO.
No amount is worth your identity. You are just selling your identity to a said amount that you can withdraw if you did the KYC. Yes some minor information can be changed but the house address on your identification documents can't be change so quickly.
It is still not advisable for us to just do KYC specially on unlicensed website. Me I never did a single KYC no matter how much money is involve in it. Its just not worth the risk for me.

First of all, why would you play and deposit money in an unlicensed casino?
That alone is an identification of an untrusted website.
"It's better safe than be sorry on the latter, " as everyone says.
This doesn't make any sense. The obvious answer to this is, you'll going to end up being scammed and compromise your vital information that could be used to transact illegal online businesses over the internet.

if winning a jackpot requires a kyc before withdrawals they should put that on their rules because that is important to know . gamblers wont burn money in the hopes of snatching that jackpot if in the end they cant still get thier winnings but the biggest question that arises is why will they suddenly require a kyc when they are not legal .

is that only an excuse to not give away the jackpots . if your asking if i trust illegal casinos well no i dont support them but i always play on the verified casinos because i feel that they wont cheat on me .
That is why casinos don't ask KYC for deposits, only big withdrawal requests over $1000 requires a KYC. Legal and regulated casinos should be able to ask the account verification in all cases no matter what turnover the gambler has but suspicious activities or accusations about bonus abusing can accelerate this process. The sudden KYC requirement is acceptable if there is no reason to blame the casino for this request.

If you are a gambler  then you should be ready for this scenario. For me a jackpot that is worth my KYC then i would do it but you have to do your thing first before this scenario happens in your life, look for an online casino which have license and not with the unlicensed one and better yet don't break their rules.
Really hard to decide especially when you hear suspicious about them. And that giving your personal identities will be the ticket to receive your winnings but the question is how they are true with that? Are really they going to send it after completely doing KYC?
The consequences are might quite harsh but we aren't able to know it if we are not doing this. So there is a need to sacrifice.

The safest way is to avoid using gambling casinos without a license, especially if it is true that gambling casinos require KYC procedures.
Because there are still many licensed and trusted gambling casinos for us to use. If it is related to personal data, don't underestimate it,
because if it turns out that our personal data is used for negative things or being traded that's bad things for us.

If that so, you are trying to compromise yourselves not knowing what will happen with your personal identities. Why we should have to make it knowing that they illegally run their business?
We don't need to trust other people easily especially when we are talking about KYC. Sometimes we got fooled because we only look for the short benefits or have money in returns after submitting KYC but we are not sure also what they'll do those things after? If we care for ourselves, then have to protect it.

If I found out that casino having no license, I guess I wouldn't trust them with my credentials specially when giving out my kyc details. What if they'll failed your application? Then something's smells fishy on that aspect, because there's a chance that the funds you have will be scammed. Don't ever trust an unknown casinos, you might fall on their schemes without any rewards from your gambling investments. Choose those legit and trusted sites to gain full confidence to entrust your money.

It's not right asking KYC from a player if they have no license at all.
Though there are some reputable casinos here without a license, but if they start asking KYC, then doubt about their intentions.
Better play on popular and legit sites here that you know you will not be screwed in case you won something big.
But for casinos that don't have thread here or no support at all, better stay away from them.

For you to avoid that scenario in the future, choose another casino that has a license and much more trustworthy than what you're describing. That is only if don't want any ruckus if ever you win the pot.

There are other better casinos that wouldn't force you to KYC. Check and read the FAQ and their terms and condition for you to verify rules that includes possible KYC compliance.

Dealing with the unlicensed casinos is too risky at all and you should have made your own research before you gamble on that site and if there’s a KYC avoid that right away before you experience a problem like this. There’s a lot of good gambling site where you can play without giving your own information, and most of them have their own license, gamble with those great site and you will have fun without worrying about KYC.

Say no to gambling sites that want to get your KYC. Let them provide KYC with the data of their owners and complete information about their legal entity. You can only show your documents in a regular casino, when you know that no one will copy or sell them.

I guess the KYC thing is those gamblers who will withdraw a big amount that they should undergo with the KYC. However, if KYC isn't a big deal for you that isn't a matter at all. But if you will speak about gambling that doesn't have licensed, well, I don't trust too that gambling site.

A gambling casino should operate legally and should have an evaluator, licensed casinos were always evaluated by the licensing company. If they had something bad, it's risky to their business. So, I guess, the licensed casino was a good decision upon picking a good exchange.

That's not new anymore. There are really gambling sites that asked for KYC when a certain winner hit a decent amount. But as long as the site is reputable, I don't mind undergoing a KYC if ever I win a big amount.

And besides, in the first place, I won't consider playing on that site if they didn't catch my interest and understand their terms related to KYC.

Obviously, shouldn't be mandatory for low-tier winnings.

Don't have any problems with the KYC yourself. There are many people who do object to it. It also depends in which currency you play. If you would like to gamble anonymously with your bitcoins, you are not waiting for a KYC, at least I can imagine. But on the other hand, big bettors who have a lot of bets and experience do know that a KYC is inevitable.

Unlicensed casinos don't have a right to function, nothing to say about giving KYC documents to them, without doubt, you shouldn't do it. Personally, I wouldn't give away KYC documents on every licensed casino but would risk on those whom I trust and are trusted in the crypto gambling community.
It's easy to obtain the license and you know, a lot of licensed casinos scam nowadays, so imagine how poor scammer would an unlicensed casino be and also how bad employees they should have.

Better to try your luck in jackpots on trusted casinos. Usually, that kind of reward giveaways (when user registers and somehow quickly wins jackpot) are the sign of scammy action.

Does that even make sense to ask for KYC when you are not licensed and so you are not working legally over any jurisdiction?, I understand that some casino websites ask for KYC in some cases that users could act against their TOS but at least most of them are licensed, I'd say this gambling website could be either a front to just gather as much as KYC information as they can so that they can sell them later or they just added this KYC requirement so that whenever they feel like it they just freeze the users account and ask them for KYC and if they didn't do that/or even do that(based on history happens in some cases) just proceed to take their funds for themselves, or both.

Only play with casinos that are liscensed or better with casino that already been known in the market for long a since  they have some name to keep, that even if KYC will be required which sometimes happens for certain huge amount we will not worry in our identity revealed as well in doing transactions in them. KYC seems normal in casinos especially if bigger amount of money involved and there are casino who are popular now and registered, so why bother investing or playing on those not.

This is an important point that will be discussed. For me, it always starts with the reputation of a casino. And the foundation must be that it has a valid license.

If you won a lot of money and they didn't pay out, who do you turn to? You don't have any reference material. I think that most casinos controlled by a certain commission are required to request customer documentation.

That could be different with bitcoins. At a casino with a traditional payment method, it is more logical that they want different documents from you.

So, simply avoid a casino that does not have a gaming license.

You would all able to avoid these headaches if you do just simply stick out to those casinos which are credible or been known on paying up users even winning up some big amounts.
There are lots of them actually that do currently existing and it isnt really that something that it is licensed or what because ive known some of them arent but still paying
up their users without any problem or issues and about Kyc then majority of casinos now excluding fiat casinos where there is stated that they can really ask out verification
but in most cases these things would be asked if theres something wrong into your winning or gambling activity but if theres none then you would surely be having

And how did you found it ?
If a company is not licensed (whether it's a casino or not) and start enforce KYC for its users, then this should rise red flags to everybody who wants to use it. Stay away from this Casino, there is a great possibility that you will lose your savings and your personal info being sold too .
