No Deposit Required, Get Involved Today
Although there is no need to make a deposit at Winamax to play in our �1,000 freerolls, French law requires players to complete the first of three stages of the sign-up process before they can compete in any real-money games. Our freerolls are classified as real-money games so you must comply with French rules if you wish to compete in them.
The rules set by the French regulator ARJEL mean the Winamax sign-up process is different from what you may be used to. Please read through the following three instructions carefully before signing up to Winamax.
(1) When new players sign up, they must do the following or they will not be allowed to play in real-money games or freerolls, or make a deposit.
- Provide their date and place of birth.
- Provide their bank account number (IBAN and BIC/Swift numbers).
- Define certain spending and playing limits.
(2) Once an account has been created, a player has three months to provide the following documentation:
- A copy of an ID document such as a passport or driving license.
- Proof of bank account ownership, such as a bank statement.
- Both documents must match exactly the details entered when creating the Winamax account.
Failure to provide this information within one month will result in the account being locked. If the documents are not sent within three months, the account will be permanently closed.
(3) Once Winamax has received and validated all the relevant documents, a letter containing a personal validation code will be sent to the player��s postal address. A player has six weeks to enter this code, and once this is done, the account will be finalized and funds can be withdrawn.
Remember, you only need to complete the first step �� displayed in bold text �� to play in the �1,000 freerolls, but you must complete the other two stages to withdraw any winnings or to make a deposit.
