How to pass

Get through in one submission

This walkthrough settles what to open, what to send and what slows the 49-hour review down.

Before you open the scanner

Open your account menu and pick the documents area, where each upload slot is labelled by the paper it expects; send each item to the matching slot rather than bundling everything together.

All four corners in frame

Photograph the photo page of your passport or both sides of your driving licence against a plain surface, with all four corners in frame and no glare across the text.

Same address, same spelling

Send a bill or bank statement issued within the last three months, showing your name and home address exactly as they appear on your casino profile.

Let the 49 hours run

Wait for the confirmation e-mail from the verification team before uploading again, since a second copy of the same paper restarts the queue and adds to your 49-hour wait.

Moments that bring the identity check to you

Waiting on a check does not mean anything is wrong with your account.

First withdrawal pause

Cash out for the first time and the check lands here, because the licence must see an identity confirmed before money leaves the account. Expect a photo of your proof of identity.

Am I 18 or over?

Prove you are 18 or over whenever we need certainty on age; a date of birth on file is not enough on its own. A photo of your proof of identity settles it.

A larger payment than usual?

Send the papers early when a payment looks far larger than your usual pattern. The licence treats sizeable movements as worth a second look, so identity and payment method confirmation get checked again.

New payment method review

Add a card or wallet and the method itself needs confirming, so we can see the payment route belongs to you. A photo of the card or wallet screen usually does the job.

Why is the casino asking about my earnings?

Ask for a source of funds check and the reason is procedural, not personal. Our licence from the UK Gambling Commission, number 66003-6102-R-224069, obliges us to know that money played here is yours to play. Goldenlion Casino Ltd applies the same standard to every account that reaches this stage.

Send whichever of these fits how the money reached your account.

Recent payslips or an employer letter
Bank statement showing incoming salary
Tax return or self-assessment summary
Proof of a pension or benefit award
Evidence of a sale or an inheritance

Resubmit with these corrections

Pass with a current copy. A document past its expiry date no longer proves who you are today, so the reviewer has to turn it down. Send a current, unexpired copy Check the expiry date before scanning

Recent address evidence. Address proof ages fast: a bill from months ago fails to show where you live now, and the reviewer rejects it. Use a bill from the last few months Order a fresh copy from the provider

Sharp, uncropped photo. Glare, shadow or a cropped edge hides the details a reviewer must read, so the image cannot be accepted. Lay the document flat in daylight Retake with all four corners visible

What a clean check gets you

Most worry here is about refused papers and waiting — both answered plainly below.

My document was refused, what do I send instead?+

Send a fresh copy of the same document type, uncropped and fully in frame, and check that the corners and any hologram read clearly. A blurry photo is the usual reason for a refusal, not a wrong paper. Reply to the verification message from [email protected] with the new file.

Which regulator licenses Goldenlion Casino and what is the number?+

The UK Gambling Commission licenses Goldenlion Casino Ltd, Company No. 66847002 (United Kingdom), under licence number 66003-6102-R-224069. That licence is why the identity and source of funds checks exist at all. The operator has run from High Street, Manchester since 2008.

Will I have to send my documents again a second time?+

Usually no, once a document has been accepted it stays on your file. We may ask again if your address changes, a payment method is replaced, or the earlier copy has become unreadable. In those cases the request names the single paper needed.

How long does verification take once I have sent everything?+

Plan for up to 49 hours from the moment a complete set lands with the verification team. Most sets clear well inside that window, and a first submission with legible photos is the fastest route. Nothing else on your account has to wait during that time.

Can I withdraw before the check is finished?+

No, and the licence does not allow it: verification is required at the latest before your first withdrawal. The casino may ask earlier, at registration or after your first deposit, so papers can arrive before you need the money out. Sending early keeps the payout queue clear.

How is my ID data protected after I send it?+

Files travel through 256-bit AES encryption and are held for the check only, never traded or sold on. The verification team and the compliance side see them; support staff answering your chat do not. Ask [email protected] for a copy of what is held.
