KYC Verification Guide {#kyc}

Why KYC is Required

KYC (Know Your Customer) verification is mandatory before your first withdrawal. This is a regulatory requirement that:

  • Verifies your identity to prevent fraud
  • Ensures you are 18+ years old
  • Confirms your payment methods belong to you
  • Protects your account from unauthorized access

KYC is a one-time process. Once verified, you don't need to repeat it unless your documents expire.

Documents Required

Primary ID (choose one):

  • Aadhaar card (front and back)
  • PAN card (front only)
  • Passport (photo page)
  • Voter ID (front and back)
  • Driving license (front and back)

Proof of address (if not included in primary ID):

  • Utility bill (electricity, water, gas) — not older than 3 months
  • Bank statement — not older than 3 months
  • Aadhaar card (if address is current)

Selfie:

  • Clear photo of your face
  • Must match the photo on your ID document
  • No sunglasses, hats, or face coverings

Step-by-Step KYC Process

  1. Open the HABET APK and go to Account → Verify Identity
  2. Select your document type from the dropdown
  3. Tap Upload Front and take a clear photo of the front of your document
  4. Tap Upload Back (if required for your document type)
  5. Tap Take Selfie and follow the on-screen instructions
  6. Review all uploaded documents for clarity
  7. Tap Submit for Verification

KYC processing time:

  • Standard: 2-24 hours
  • Peak periods (IPL season): Up to 48 hours
  • You'll receive an SMS and email when KYC is approved

Tips for Faster KYC Approval

  • Use good lighting: Natural daylight produces the clearest photos
  • Avoid glare: Don't photograph documents under direct light
  • Ensure all text is readable: Zoom in to verify before submitting
  • Match your selfie to your ID: Same hairstyle and no accessories
  • Submit during business hours: 9 AM - 6 PM IST for faster processing
  • Use Aadhaar if possible: Aadhaar verification is typically fastest

KYC Rejection Reasons

If your KYC is rejected, common reasons include:

  • Blurry documents: Retake photos with better lighting and stability
  • Expired documents: Submit current, valid documents
  • Name mismatch: Ensure your HABET account name matches your ID exactly
  • Partial document visible: Ensure the entire document is in frame
  • Selfie mismatch: Ensure your selfie clearly matches your ID photo

You can resubmit KYC documents after rejection. Contact customer support if you need guidance.
