Sportzino Verify Documents
Why Sportzino Requests Identity Documents
Every operator holding a none/grey licence must comply with Know Your Customer (KYC) and anti-money-laundering obligations under the terms of that licence. For Canadian players, this overlaps with federal Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act requirements applied to payment processors and, increasingly, directly to licensed operators.
Practically speaking, Sportzino needs to confirm three things: that you are who you say you are, that you are old enough to gamble legally in your province, and that the payment method belongs to you. None of this is Sportzino-specific — every regulated real-money site operating in Canada runs the same checks.
Documents You Will Need to Submit
Sportzino follows a standard two-category structure: proof of identity and proof of address. Depending on the payment methods on your account, a third category — payment method verification — may also apply.
Proof of identity (one of the following)
- Canadian passport (photo page)
- Provincial driver's licence (front and back)
- Government-issued photo ID card (front and back)
The document must be valid — not expired — and show your full legal name, date of birth, and a clear photograph. Scans or high-resolution phone photos are accepted; blurry or cropped images are the single most common reason verification fails.
Proof of address (one of the following)
- Utility bill (electricity, gas, internet) dated within the last 90 days
- Bank or credit card statement dated within the last 90 days
- Government correspondence (CRA notice of assessment, provincial health card letter) dated within the last 90 days
The document must show your full name and the address that matches the one registered on your Sportzino account. P.O. box addresses are not accepted.
Payment method verification (if applicable)
If you have deposited via a method that carries a name — credit card, prepaid card, or a bank account — Sportzino may request a scan of the card or a screenshot of the e-wallet account showing your name and the last four digits. Interac e-Transfer deposits are typically verified by matching the sending email address to the account registration. Cryptocurrency addresses generally do not require this step, though Sportzino may request a wallet screenshot in some cases.

How Long Verification Takes at Sportzino
Review times vary by licence type and document volume. Under iGO Ontario rules, operators are expected to process verification within a defined service window; Curaçao and KGC operators typically publish a 24–72-hour estimate in their terms. Sportzino's standard timeline is reflected in the withdrawal window of varies by method — first-withdrawal requests are generally not processed until KYC is cleared, so submitting documents before you request a withdrawal saves time.
If you have not received a result after 72 hours, contact support with your submission timestamp and any reference number you were given.
Common Reasons Documents Are Rejected at Sportzino
Name mismatch. The name on the ID must match the name on the account exactly. Nicknames, middle-name omissions, or a maiden-name vs. married-name discrepancy all trigger a rejection.
Expired document. An expired passport or driver's licence is not accepted even if the photo is clear.
Address document is too old. Utility bills or bank statements older than 90 days fail the recency threshold. Request a fresh statement directly from your financial institution.
Image quality. The document must be fully legible, unobstructed, and lit without glare. Both sides of a driver's licence are required.
Bonus account holds. Submitting documents while a bonus is active does not accelerate withdrawal — the wagering requirement must still be met. Document approval and bonus clearance are separate processes at Sportzino.
