Know Your Customer identity verification process required before redeeming Sweep Coin winnings for cash prizes.
KYC (Know Your Customer) verification is an identity verification process that sweepstakes casinos require before allowing players to redeem Sweep Coins for cash prizes. The process typically involves submitting government-issued photo ID (driver's license or passport), proof of address (utility bill or bank statement), and sometimes a selfie for facial matching. KYC verification serves multiple purposes: it prevents fraud, ensures age compliance (18+ or 21+ depending on state), confirms the player's location is in a legal jurisdiction, and complies with financial regulations around prize disbursement. Verification usually takes 24-72 hours for initial review. Once verified, subsequent redemptions are typically processed faster.
