Why Your ID Matters – AML & You
Linebet, operated by ASPRO N.V., must comply with Anti‑Money Laundering (AML) and Counter‑Terrorism Financing rules. In plain language, this means:
- No dirty cash. Funds you deposit must come from legal sources.
- No hiding. The platform has to know who owns the money, where it came from and where it’s going.
- No shady business. If something looks fishy, Linebet will freeze funds and notify the authorities.
- By signing up, you agree to share any information they request to prove your deposits aren’t tied to criminal activity.
KYC: What You’ll Need to Upload
To unlock full betting limits and withdrawals, complete identity verification. Linebet will ask for:
- Photo ID
- Kenyan passport, National ID card or driver’s licence.
- Must clearly show your full name, date of birth and a recent photo.
- Proof of Address
- A utility bill (water, electricity or phone) dated within the last three months.
- Or an official bank statement or tenancy agreement.
- Source of Funds
- A brief note or document showing where you got the money you plan to deposit—salary slip, M‑Pesa statement, business invoice, etc.
- Sometimes extra documents are required (e.g., notarised copies), especially for large volumes or unusual funding patterns.
Uploading & Waiting
- Head to Profile → Verification.
- Snap or scan each document in colour. Blurry selfies or cropped scans will slow you down.
- Submit and chill: most verifications clear within 24–48 hours. You’ll get an on‑screen notification (and often an e‑mail) once everything’s approved.
What If There’s a Hold‑Up?
Linebet’s compliance team runs real‑time checks against international sanction lists and monitors your account for odd bets, sudden huge deposits or rapid withdrawal attempts. If they spot something unusual:
- You may be asked for more info. Think of it as extra vigilance, not a personal attack.
- Funds might be frozen temporarily. This is standard procedure—just cooperate and you’ll be unblocked quickly.
- Accounts can be banned. If they genuinely suspect money laundering or terrorism financing, your account may be closed and authorities notified.
You’re Good to Go!
Once verified, you’re free to:
- Top up via M‑Pesa, bank transfer or crypto.
- Place single, accumulator or live bets on football, basketball, tennis and countless other markets.
- Spin slots, try live‑dealer tables or test new games like Chicken Zap! and Aviator.
- Cash out your winnings in Kenyan shillings without the hassle.
