What do you need to verify your Skrill account?

Skrill verification is simple, and it will make your Skrill account safer. Plus, you can receive higher money transfers and deposit more to your gaming site with a verified Skrill account. Do you want to unlock all features of your Skrill wallet? Then here is all you need to know about verifying your Skrill account. 


WHY DO YOU NEED TO VERIFY YOUR SKRILL ACCOUNT?

Skrill is required by law to verify its users. There is no way around that. 

Once verified, you will be able to use all Skrill features.

The verification process is simply matching your ID documents with your Skrill account data. Nothing more. Skrill will not share your account data or your data with a third party. 


SKRILL VERIFICATION REQUIREMENTS


To verify your Skrill account, you will need to have the following documents ready: 

  • ID card,
  • or drivers license,
  • or passport. 
The ID document has to be an official document issued by the state authority.

The easiest way is to verify your account via the Skrill app. If you are not using the Skrill app yet, go to Apple or Play Google and download the free Skrill app. 

Otherwise, you can also use your desktop to verify your Skrill account. You will need a webcam to show your documents or take snapshots of your documents and upload them during the Skrill verification process.

  • Either way, as the Skrill verification process is fully automated, it will guide you through step by step.
