How the Registration Flow Works

The registration form asks for your name, email address, date of birth, and a state-verified mailing address. Once you submit, you'll get an email to confirm your address — click the link and you move straight to identity verification. That step requires a government-issued ID, such as a driver's license or passport. After verification clears,

your account is active and the payment screen opens automatically. From there you pick your preferred wallet — PayPal, Venmo, or Play+ — and connect it to your account. Players in New York and other eligible states see region-specific prompts at this stage. If anything stalls, our support team can walk you through the ID

step directly via live chat. Keep your phone nearby during registration because the OTP confirmation goes to your mobile number.

  • Identity Verification A government-issued ID confirms your identity at sign-up. This step keeps your account secure and meets state-level access requirements before your wallet connects.
  • State Eligibility Check We confirm your state during registration. Access to the lobby and sportsbook depends on local law, and eligible states are verified before your account activates.
  • OTP Account Security Your mobile number receives a one-time passcode at sign-up and each time you log in from a new device, adding a second layer of protection to your account.
  • Live Chat on Standby If the ID verification step or email confirmation stalls, live chat connects you to our account team. They handle registration questions directly, not through a ticket queue.

ACCOUNT HELP PATHS

Where to Go If Registration Has a Snag

Most accounts complete registration without issues, but if your ID verification holds up, your email confirmation link expires, or your payment wallet won't connect, there are direct paths to help. Our account team handles registration-specific questions — not general FAQ redirects.

Live Chat Open the chat widget from the registration page itself. Describe where you're stuck — ID upload, OTP, or wallet link — and the team responds to that specific step.
Email Support Send your account question to our support address and include a screenshot if the error is visual. Email is useful for ID disputes or document re-submission requests.
Help Center The account section of our help center covers the verification flow, OTP issues, and wallet-linking steps with annotated screen references — no account login required to read it.
ACCOUNT SAFETY SIGNALS

How We Protect Your Account from Day One

Account security starts at registration, not after your first deposit. Every field you submit during sign-up passes through encrypted connections, and the data we store follows standard data-protection practices. Your identity documents are handled through a verified KYC process and are not stored beyond what the review requires.

SSL Encryption Every page of the registration flow uses SSL encryption. Your name, address, date of birth, and payment details travel through a secured connection from form field to our servers.
KYC Identity Check We use a standard Know Your Customer process to verify your ID. Documents are reviewed through a secured verification system and are not stored in your account profile afterward.
Two-Factor Login After registration, every login from an unrecognized device triggers an OTP to your registered mobile number. That means a stolen password alone is not enough to access your account.
Data Handling Policy Your personal data is used only for account management, state eligibility checks, and payment processing. We do not sell account data to third-party marketing networks.

Connect PayPal, Venmo, or Play+ at Sign-Up

After your account activates, the payment screen prompts you to link a funding source. PayPal connects via your existing login — no card number needed. Venmo works the same way: authorize through the app and the link is instant. Play+ is a prepaid card option you load separately and then tie to your socalraffle account, which works well if you prefer to keep casino funds in a dedicated balance. Each method is shown with a short connector walkthrough so you know exactly which app to open. Deposit amounts and any minimums are displayed on the cashier screen before you confirm.

PayPal

Authorize through your PayPal login on the cashier screen. No debit card number required — the link goes through your existing PayPal account balance or connected bank.

Venmo

Connect Venmo directly from the payment screen. Once authorized, deposits draw from your Venmo balance, giving you a payment path that stays inside an app you already use.

Play+

Load a Play+ prepaid card and link it to your account for a dedicated casino wallet. Useful if you want a clear separation between everyday spending and your socalraffle balance.

Common Questions About Creating Your Account

If something during registration isn't clear, these are the questions our account team hears most often. Check here before reaching out — most sign-up snags have a quick fix.

You'll need your legal name, email address, date of birth, and a current mailing address. A government-issued ID — driver's license or passport — is required for the identity verification step.

State eligibility is checked automatically during registration based on your address. Access to the lobby depends on local law, and the form tells you clearly if your state is not currently supported.

Yes. Once your account is verified and active, the cashier screen prompts you to link PayPal or Venmo through their standard app authorization. The link takes under a minute to complete.

Play+ is a prepaid card option. You load it separately, then enter the card details on our cashier screen. It works well if you want a dedicated balance just for socalraffle activity.

Open live chat from the registration page and describe the hold-up. Common fixes include re-uploading a clearer photo or submitting a secondary document. The team handles this directly.

Check your spam or junk folder first. If it's not there, live chat or email support can resend the confirmation link manually once they locate your pending account record.
