What is KYC in online casinos?
Identity checks licensed casinos run to confirm a player's age and identity and to prevent fraud and money laundering. Withdrawals usually require completed KYC.

Why it matters
South African example: on a R100 bet, a 1.50x cash out pays R150. See the term in action in our Aviator South Africa guide.
Completing KYC early avoids delays when you want to withdraw.
In practice
Licensed casinos usually ask for ID, proof of address and sometimes proof of payment method. Doing it before you need to withdraw avoids the most common payout delays.
Example
Uploading an ID and proof of address before your first withdrawal.
