Five minutes and a photo of your driving licence get you most of the way through Wildzy registration. A deposit and a few account settings finish the job. Have your documents ready before you start, because the form rejects details that don't match your ID.
What you need before you sign up to Wildzy
You must be 18 or over and live in the United Kingdom. Gather your full name as it appears on your passport or driving licence, your date of birth, your home address and a UK mobile number. You also need a debit card or PayPal account in your own name for the first deposit.
Use real details. A nickname or a different spelling of your surname leads to failed verification and a held withdrawal. Each person gets one account, and operators close duplicates, sometimes voiding any winnings that sit in them.
How to register, step by step
The form runs through five steps and takes a few minutes on a laptop or a phone browser. Whichever device you use to join Wildzy, the fields stay the same.
- Open the Wildzy homepage and find the Wildzy register button.
- Enter your email address and choose a password with a mix of letters, numbers and symbols.
- Add your name, date of birth, address and mobile number exactly as they appear on your ID.
- Confirm you are 18 or over and accept the terms and conditions.
- Click the link in the confirmation email to activate your account.
Check your spam folder if the email takes longer than a few minutes. Gmail and Outlook both flag new casino addresses now and then.
Identity verification
The UK Gambling Commission requires licensed operators to confirm your name, age and address before you gamble with real money. Wildzy registration therefore ends with an upload of two documents. Send a passport or photocard driving licence, plus a proof of address dated within the last three months, such as a utility bill or bank statement.
Photograph each document on a flat surface in good light with all four corners visible. Blurred or cropped images get bounced, and the second attempt costs you a day or two.
Upload both files straight after you sign up to Wildzy. The first withdrawal then goes through without a hold while the support team reads your paperwork.
Making your first deposit
Open the cashier and pick a payment method registered in your name. UK banks and the UKGC ban credit cards for gambling, so the cashier will not accept one.
Payment methods to look for
Visa and Mastercard debit cards work at most UK casinos, and PayPal is the quickest route if you want to keep your card details off the site. Pay by Phone and Boku add the deposit to your mobile bill, which suits small amounts but caps at a low daily limit. Open Banking and Faster Payments move money from your bank account directly, with no card number to type. Withdrawals go back to the method you deposited with, so choose one you plan to keep using.
Set your limits at the start
Set a deposit limit during registration, while you still have no money in the account. Pick a daily, weekly or monthly figure in pounds that you could lose without touching your rent or bills, and keep it there.
