Why Splash Requires Verification Before Deposits & Withdrawals

Why Splash Sports requires identity verification (KYC) before deposits and withdrawals — legal, regulatory, and fraud protection reasons.

Updated yesterday

Splash Sports is legally required to verify all users before they can deposit or withdraw funds. This is a regulatory requirement for licensed gaming companies — not optional, and not something we can waive.


Why Verification Is Required

  • Age eligibility — Minimum age varies by state (18, 19, or 21+). We must confirm you qualify.

  • Location eligibility — Real-money contests are only available in certain states. Verification confirms you're in a legal jurisdiction.

  • Fraud protection — Verification ensures each account is tied to a real, unique person and prevents identity theft.

  • Regulatory compliance — As a licensed platform, we are audited and required to meet KYC standards set by state gaming regulators.


What Verification Covers

Your name, date of birth, and address are checked against secure, independent data sources. In some cases, a government-issued photo ID is also required.

Your information is handled securely and used only for verification — it is never sold or shared for advertising purposes.


When It's Required

  • Before your first deposit

  • Before withdrawing funds

  • Before entering a real-money contest

Entertainment-only (self-managed) contests do not require verification.
