Pin Up verification: KYC documents and how to pass the check
Like every licensed operator, Pin Up online follows Know Your Customer rules: before paying out winnings it confirms who you are and that the payment method is yours. Uploading the right documents early is the single best way to make the first withdrawal fast.

Why Pin Up Verifies Accounts
The Terms state that the operator follows the international KYC guideline, which requires identity checks before any withdrawal. Verification protects against fraud, stolen cards, underage play and duplicate accounts, and it is part of the anti-money-laundering rules of the Curaçao licence. A player who has provided all required documents is called a verified client.
The check can be requested at any time — when you deposit, before the first withdrawal or later if something in the account changes. It is not a sign of suspicion: every player who wants to withdraw goes through it once. Under the Terms, the first and last name and date of birth entered at registration must be your real data, because they are compared with the documents.
Documents for Pin Up Verification
| Document | What it proves | Tips |
|---|---|---|
| Passport or ID card | Identity and age | Whole document, all corners, readable text |
| Proof of address | Place of residence | Recent utility bill or bank letter with your name |
| Bank statement | Source of payments | Shows your name and the account used |
| Card photos (front and back) | Card ownership | Only first 6 and last 4 digits visible, CVV covered |
| Proof of other methods | Ownership of e-wallets etc. | Screenshot of the wallet profile with your name |
Additional requirements can apply depending on the payment channel. The operator may also ask for a photo of your face next to the ID document or a short video identification, and may call the phone number saved in your profile as part of KYC.
How to Pass Verification at Pin Up
Complete the profile
Enter name, date of birth and address exactly as in your documents.
Confirm e-mail and phone
Use the confirmation link and keep the phone number up to date.
Prepare the files
Photograph or scan the ID, proof of address and payment method.
Upload in Profile → Document upload
Files can be added at any time, even right after registration.
Wait for the check
It is done on business days; answer any follow-up request from support.
Completing the profile and verifying the account also earn Pincoins in the Privilege System — the tasks are listed in the guide to Pincoins tasks.
How to Take Document Photos That Pass
- Daylight, no flash. Glare on a laminated card is the most common reason for a repeat request.
- All four corners visible. Cropped documents are rejected.
- No edits. Filters, stickers or blurred fields (except the card digits that must be hidden) look like tampering.
- Card security. Cover the middle digits and the CVV/CVC on the back with paper before taking the photo.
- Fresh proof of address. Use a recent document where your name and address are clearly printed.
- Same name everywhere. Profile, ID and payment method must match exactly.
The easiest way to take and upload the photos is from the phone: download Pin Up app and open Profile → Document upload right after taking the pictures.
How Long Verification Takes
Verification is carried out by the financial or security department from Monday to Friday; when a withdrawal is waiting, the check can also happen outside business days. The official overview says the first withdrawal can take up to 48 hours because of the mandatory identity check, and that later requests are processed much faster once you are verified.
Example: if you upload clean documents on Tuesday right after registering, they can be reviewed before your first big win. If you wait and upload them on Friday evening together with a withdrawal request, the payout will usually wait until the check is done. The full payout timeline is on the page about the first withdrawal.
Verification Problems and Solutions
| Problem | What to do |
|---|---|

| Name does not match | Contact support; data entered at registration must be your real data. |
| Card used by a relative | Third-party payments are not allowed; winnings from them can be forfeited. |
| Missed phone call | Answer or call back soon; after two weeks without contact the account can be locked. |
| No response to a request | Provide documents within 30 days, otherwise the account can be blocked. |
Questions about the status of a check are answered in the 24/7 chat; the channels are listed on the page about the support chat.
Is It Safe to Send Documents?
Documents are uploaded inside your personal account over an encrypted connection rather than sent to random addresses. The Terms state that personal data is accessible only to those directly involved in providing the services. Never send documents to anyone who contacts you through social networks claiming to be Pin Up staff, and do not share your password or one-time codes with anybody — support does not need them to verify you.
