Do You Want KYC at Crypto Casinos During Registration?

[Pmalek]

Why should it sound good?

Because if you know there is a need to go through KYC as soon as you register, you can turn your back to that casino and go elsewhere if you don't want to do it. It's clarity and transparency from the start compared to being welcomed in and allowed to deposit and gamble, and then you get asked for KYC if you want to withdraw money from your account.

the best way is to get a KYC free casino to use for your gambling experience

That's easier said than done. If you know one that operates in such a way, go and take a look at their terms and read them thoroughly. You will probably discover they have the right to ask you for KYC whenever they want. The list of crypto casino that aren't going to do that is only going to get shorter in the future.

Always make sure to watermark your photos. This procedure will help to make your data unusable when casino databases are compromised.

This is the first time I am hearing someone suggest this. I have never given it any thought, but it's something worth remembering.

There are people who already got used to KYC when they withdraw huge amount of money on a casino online. If a casino requires KYC upon registration then they can stop creating an account if they don't want to go through KYC. For some who are used to it or okay with it then they can continue if they want to. I think some doesn't like to create an account in a casino where they created an account without KYC but when withdraw huge amount KYC is needed which is time consuming in my own opinion.

I don't like it when casinos require KYC from their users. But it's hard to find a good gambling platform that doesn't request verification. All I can advise is this. Always make sure to watermark your photos. This procedure will help to make your data unusable when casino databases are compromised.

That’s a good one, as long you don’t put that watermark on your face probably the site can accept that. There’s a way to be more secured and if you still afraid of KYC then it’s really hard to find a good site. I prefer being asked for KYC during the registration because at least I know that it’s a requirement and will do some actions as well to protect it. Gambling site may start to ask this as regulations are happening, we are slowly getting into this requirement.

To be honest, no one likes to do KYC but it is better to clear the KYC at the time of deposit, and not wait for the withdrawal and found yourself in a situation where you are unable to withdraw only because you are not able to clear the KYC.

Though some people are saying that gambling sites should ask for KYC at the time of registration. I would not support that as sometimes we make an account on the site to see how the site look like but never deposit there. Better to make KYC compulsory at the time of deposit.

Gambling sites will never impose this restriction as they want people to deposit without any restrictions or KYC. We ,as gamblers, should do KYC ourself before deposits if we know that KYC would be required at the time of withdrawal.

I don't think there's a crypto-casino yet that asked KYC right away during the registration. If there's any, anyone can correct me on this. At most cases, users can freely register an account on that site to check the platform's interface or what else can be seen on that site.

More importantly, if the KYC is really mandatory, it should be supposed to be highlighted clearly on the Deposit/Withdrawal page.

But referring to most crypto-gambling sites today, KYC is not mandatory and that might just be asked for big withdrawals. For what amount can be considered as big withdrawals, that is something not disclosed on any site's TOS.

I know that I came across some when I did research for my gambling threads. I am pretty sure Roobet requires all their players to perform KYC now. BK8 is another one that I believe does it. At least that was the case when I tried to register there. You should also be wary with long-standing fiat casinos that upgraded their systems to also support crypto. Some of them could have the same rules no matter if you want to play with traditional fiat or cryptocurrencies.

That's what i said that there should be no casino which ask for KYC straight away on registration and good thing is that there is none known to my knowledge.
Now, you do not know when you will win big and suddenly required to do a KYC. At that moment, the untrusted gambling sites may not approve your KYC so that you are not able to withdraw big amount. That was the reason i was saying that we should perform the KYC at the time of deposit, even though it is not mandatory at that point.
