What is ID Verification?

Last updated on Oct 15, 2024

ID Verification is an essential part of ensuring the security and fairness of GameShard. We’ve partnered with Stripe to handle this process, known as Know Your Customer (KYC), which is a standard security measure used by many platforms to confirm the identity of users. This verification is required for certain actions on GameShard, such as processing payouts or verifying your age when necessary.

The process is straightforward. When prompted, you’ll be asked to provide a valid form of ID, like a passport or driver’s license, to confirm your identity. Stripe securely manages the verification, ensuring that your personal information is protected throughout. This step helps us safeguard the platform against fraud and maintain compliance with legal regulations, ensuring that everyone on GameShard is who they say they are.

ID Verification may be required when you try to withdraw funds, participate in certain tournaments, or if age verification is needed. Although it’s a quick and secure process, it plays a crucial role in protecting both you and the GameShard community.

If you have any questions about how your data is handled, our Privacy Policy provides additional information on the protection of your personal details.
