Documents You Need for Chipy Casino Verification
Updated on June 20, 2026 by the editorial team
Before your first withdrawal clears, Chipy Casino verification asks you to confirm three things: who you are, where you live, and that the money you deposited is yours. That check is standard KYC, required under the Curaçao licence the casino holds, and it usually wraps up in 24 to 48 hours once your files land in good shape.
This page lists every document the team can request, explains what a clean scan looks like, and shows when an extra source-of-funds request appears. Get the paperwork right on the first upload and you skip the back-and-forth that drags payouts past the usual window.

Accepted documents at a glance
Verification rests on three pillars. Proof of identity, proof of address, and proof of the payment method you used to fund the account. Chipy Casino accepts government-issued photo ID such as a passport or driver's licence, an address document issued within the last 90 days, and sometimes confirmation of the payment method behind your deposit.
Each pillar has more than one option, so you rarely need to hunt for something rare. Here is the full set the review team will accept:
- Photo ID — Canadian passport, provincial driver's licence, or a provincial photo card. The name, date of birth, document number and expiry must all be readable.
- Proof of address — a utility bill (hydro, water, gas), a bank or credit-card statement, a mobile-phone bill, or an official government letter such as a CRA notice.
- Payment proof — a masked card photo, an e-wallet screenshot showing your name, or an Interac confirmation. Requested only when the casino needs to tie a deposit to you.
- Source of funds — a pay stub, tax slip, or bank statement. Reserved for large balances or unusual deposit patterns, not for a standard C$50 top-up.
Send colour scans or sharp phone photos. Screenshots of a screen, black-and-white copies, and files with cropped corners get bounced back, and that costs you a day.
You upload these through your account rather than by email, which keeps them encrypted and tied to the right profile. One document per slot, one clear image each. If a file is too big, most phones let you drop the resolution a notch and it still reads fine.
Proof of address that passes on the first try
Address checks trip up more players than ID checks do. The rule is simple: the document has to be recent and it has to carry your full name plus your home address exactly as it appears on your account. Anything older than 90 days is rejected on sight.
A utility bill is the safest choice. Hydro, water, and gas bills show a billing period, which proves the date at a glance. Bank statements work too, as long as the header shows your name and street address. Mobile bills count. A CRA letter or other federal or provincial correspondence also qualifies.
What does not work: parcel labels, handwritten notes, anything addressed to a family member, and PDFs where the address sits on a page you did not upload. If your bank hides the address on statement page one, send the page that actually carries it. Keep the four corners of the document inside the frame so the casino can confirm nothing was trimmed away.
One practical tip. Download the statement straight from your provider's portal as a PDF rather than photographing a paper copy. Portal PDFs are cleaner, and the metadata date backs up the 90-day rule.
When source of funds comes into play
Most players never see this request. It surfaces when a balance grows quickly, when deposits arrive from several different methods, or when a payout sits well above your usual activity. It is a licence-driven anti-money-laundering step, not a sign that anything is wrong with your account.
If it lands in your inbox, the casino wants a paper trail linking your winnings and deposits to legitimate income. Acceptable evidence includes recent pay stubs, a T4 or other tax slip, a bank statement showing salary going in, or documents covering a one-off event like a property sale or an inheritance letter.
Respond quickly and completely. A partial answer restarts the clock. Match the document to the deposit story: if you funded the account from a specific bank, send a statement from that same bank so the reviewer can connect the dots without a follow-up email.
Black out account numbers you would rather keep private, but leave your name, the balance movements, and the dates visible. The reviewer is confirming the money is genuinely yours, nothing more. Once that box is ticked, the flag drops off your account and future payouts run through the normal queue.
Documents checklist
Use this table as a pre-upload run-through. Confirm each requirement before you hit send, and the review team has almost nothing to query.
| Requirement | Accepted documents | Key detail to check |
|---|---|---|
| Identity | Passport, driver's licence, provincial photo card | All four corners visible, not expired, number legible |
| Address | Utility bill, bank statement, mobile bill, CRA letter | Issued within the last 90 days, full name and address shown |
| Payment method | Masked card photo, e-wallet screenshot, Interac receipt | Your name matches the account; middle card digits hidden |
| Source of funds | Pay stub, tax slip, salaried bank statement | Only when requested; must cover the flagged deposit amount |
| File quality | Colour scan or clear photo (JPG/PNG/PDF) | Sharp focus, no glare, whole document inside the frame |
Everything on this list feeds the same welcome offer you signed up for. Verify early and the C$750 + 200 FS package, plus any winnings on top, is ready to withdraw the moment you clear the wagering. See the full bonus terms and the payment methods page for cash-out routes.
ID document requirements
Your photo ID does the heaviest lifting, so get it right. Chipy Casino needs a clear image of a valid, government-issued document that shows your face, full name, date of birth, and an expiry date still in the future.
For a passport, photograph the main page with the photo and machine-readable code. For a driver's licence, send both the front and the back; the back carries security features the reviewer checks. Lay the card on a plain, dark surface, kill any glare from overhead lights, and make sure the text is crisp enough to read without zooming.
A few things get an ID bounced fast. Fingers covering a corner. A document that expired last month. A selfie held so far from the camera the details blur. The name on the ID also has to match your registration name letter for letter, so if you signed up as a nickname, fix the account detail before you upload.
Once identity, address, and any payment or funds files are in, review typically finishes inside 24 to 48 hours, occasionally stretching to three business days during busy periods. Curious about the wider timeline? The verification duration guide breaks down each stage, and the ID and passport check page zooms in on the identity step alone.
Common questions
How many documents do I actually have to send?
Two in most cases: one photo ID and one proof of address. A payment-method proof or a source-of-funds file only gets added when the casino needs to link a specific deposit to you or when a large balance triggers an anti-money-laundering check.
My address bill is four months old. Will it pass?
No. Address documents must be issued within the last 90 days. Download a fresh statement from your bank or utility provider's online portal and upload that instead.
Do I need to hide any numbers on my bank card?
Yes. Cover the middle eight digits and the CVV on the back. Leave the first six and last four digits, your name, and the expiry date visible so the reviewer can confirm the card is yours.
What file types can I upload?
JPG, PNG, and PDF are all accepted. Send colour files, keep them sharp, and make sure the entire document sits inside the frame. Blurry shots, cropped edges, and black-and-white copies are the usual reasons for a resubmission.
How long until verification is done?
Usually 24 to 48 hours after your documents are received, and up to three business days when the queue is busy. Uploading clean, in-date files on the first attempt is the single biggest thing you control.
