Opening an 888 Casino account on your first try
Read this the moment you decide to open an account, before any field is filled in.
Surname spelling checked word for word
The moment you submit the sign-up form, your name, date of birth and address become the record that every later check is compared against. Those details must match the Proof of identity and Proof of address you provide later, down to the spelling of a surname and the order of given names. A missing middle name, a dropped letter or an old address is enough to flag the account for review. The details that count are the ones printed on your identity document, not the version you remember.
Welcome offer picked at the cashier
Straight after you confirm your email, the account can take a deposit while the checks stay open. The minimum first deposit is A$11, and the welcome offer follows registration with that deposit. Pick the offer in the cashier when you make that deposit. The Malta Gaming Authority licence MGA/B2C/677/2006 obliges the operator to verify each player, so Proof of identity, Proof of address and Payment method verification are reviewed next. Expect sixty-two hours for that review, and finish it before your first withdrawal.
Phone apps and mobile browser
While you sign up on a phone, you can use the apps for iOS and Android or the mobile browser, and both lead to the same account. After that, your email address or player ID is the login on every device. On a computer, sign in with the same login, so you open the same account rather than a new one. Live chat, email and phone support run from nine in the morning until ten at night, every day.
