FICA Documents You Need to Verify Your YesPlay Account

If you’re signing up for YesPlay, the first hurdle is proving who you are. South Africa’s anti‑money‑laundering law calls for FICA documents, and YesPlay follows that rule. Getting them right the first time saves you hours of back‑and‑forth and gets you betting sooner.

Why FICA Documents Matter

FICA (Financial Intelligence Centre Act) is the government’s way of stopping illegal money flow. For betting sites, it means every user must submit proof of identity and address before any deposits or withdrawals are allowed. Without these papers, YesPlay will block your account, and you won’t be able to claim bonuses, place bets, or withdraw winnings.

Beyond compliance, the documents protect you. They confirm that the money in your YesPlay wallet belongs to you, which reduces fraud and keeps your winnings safe. In short, think of FICA as a security badge that lets you play with peace of mind.

How to Gather and Submit Your FICA Docs

Here’s a no‑fluff checklist you can follow right now:

1. Identity proof – A South African ID card or a valid passport. Make sure the photo is clear, the number is readable, and the document isn’t expired.

2. Address proof – A recent utility bill (electricity, water, or telephone) dated within the last three months, or a bank statement showing your name and address. The document should show the full address and not be mutilated.

3. Banking details – A screenshot or PDF of your bank statement that includes your account number and bank name. This ties your YesPlay wallet to a real bank account for withdrawals.

4. Optional: Proof of income – Some users are asked for a payslip or tax return if they plan to deposit large sums. Keep it handy if you think you’ll need it.

Once you have the files, log into your YesPlay account, go to the “Verification” section, and upload each document in the requested format (usually JPG, PNG, or PDF). The platform will scan the files and either approve them instantly or flag any issues.

If you get a rejection, check these common pitfalls:

  • Blurry or cropped images – make sure the whole document is visible.
  • Mismatched names – the name on your ID must match the name on your bank statement.
  • Expired documents – any document older than three months for address proof is a no‑go.

Correct the problem and re‑upload. Most users get approval within a few minutes, but allow up to 24 hours for manual review.
