KYC/AML & Verification (India)
Welcome to the official N8 Casino India verification page. Our mission is to protect your account, secure your funds, and deliver fast withdrawals — while meeting India’s KYC and anti-money-laundering (AML) standards.
Every player completes a clear, step-by-step KYC flow. We accept Indian IDs such as PAN, Aadhaar (offline or masked; e-KYC only when formally authorised), Passport, Voter ID, and Driving Licence. Depending on risk, we also run sanctions/PEP screening and, when needed, source-of-funds checks to keep the platform safe for everyone.
Your privacy matters. We collect only what is necessary, store it securely, and retain records for the minimum period required by law. Most accounts are verified quickly once clear, matching documents are uploaded.
18+ only. Access may be limited where local rules restrict participation. Deposits and withdrawals must be from payment instruments in your own name.

Accepted documents (India)
| Purpose | Primary options | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Identity | PAN, Passport, Voter ID, Driving Licence | Full name and date of birth must match your N8 account. |
| Address | Recent utility bill or bank statement (≤90 days), Passport address page, Aadhaar (see note) | Show name, full address, date, and issuing entity. |
| Aadhaar | Offline Aadhaar (XML/PDF) or masked copy; e-KYC only when formally authorised | If e-KYC is not available, we complete KYC with non-Aadhaar documents. |
| Payment ownership | Bank statement, UPI/IMPS screen with account-holder name, card image (first 6 / last 4) | Confirms the funding source is yours; third-party deposits are not allowed. |
| Source of funds (EDD) | Payslips, bank statements, ITR/Form 16, business income documents | Requested only in higher-risk cases or unusual activity. |
Tip: Keep the same name across PAN, bank, and your N8 account to avoid delays.
Aadhaar, PAN & name matching
- PAN supports Indian tax obligations on gaming winnings. Ensure your N8 account name matches your PAN and bank records.
- Aadhaar is accepted as offline XML/PDF or masked copy. Aadhaar e-KYC (OTP/biometric) is used only if/when we are formally authorised; otherwise, we verify with non-Aadhaar documents.
Verification levels & typical timelines
| Level | What we check | Access & limits | Typical timeframe |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard KYC | Identity, address, payment ownership | Deposits, gameplay, withdrawals within standard limits | Within 24 hours after clear upload |
| Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD) | Standard KYC + source of funds + enhanced screening | May include temporary limits until checks are complete | Up to 72 hours, depending on documents |
When we apply EDD
| Trigger | What we may ask for | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Unusual or fast-rising transaction patterns | PAN, address proof; source-of-funds documents | Risk controls and AML compliance |
| Name mismatch or suspected third-party payments | Government ID + proof of payment-method ownership | Prevent misuse and verify rightful owner |
| Sanctions/PEP/adverse-media hits | Additional ID, enhanced screening, periodic reviews | Higher regulatory risk profile |
| Repeated failed checks or document discrepancies | Fresh copies, alternative documents, liveness check | Accuracy, integrity, and account security |

KYC/AML — FAQ
Is Aadhaar mandatory?
No. We accept multiple IDs. Aadhaar e-KYC is used only if/when we are formally authorised; otherwise, we complete KYC using non-Aadhaar documents.
Why do you ask for a selfie?
To confirm the person using the account is the document holder and to prevent impersonation.
What is a PEP and why does it matter?
Politically Exposed Persons have elevated AML risk; additional checks help keep the platform safe.
How long does verification take?
Most cases complete within 24 hours after clear uploads. Enhanced checks can take up to 72 hours.
Do you share my data?
Only with regulated service providers and authorities where required by law.
What if my name differs between PAN and bank?
Update your N8 account to exactly match PAN and bank records, then upload both sets of documents; we will guide you if anything else is needed.
