Join cardsharp Where Eligible in the US
Creating an account takes a few minutes on your phone — enter your details, verify your identity, and you're in the lobby. Access depends on state law and eligible states, so check your region before you start.
Local Payment Options for US Accounts
After you register, your account wallet accepts PayPal, Venmo, and Play+ prepaid cards — the three payment rails we've built around how Americans actually move money on their phones. Open your PayPal or Venmo app, send to the account number shown in the cashier, and confirm with your app PIN; the balance appears in your cardsharp wallet before your next screen tap. Play+ works like a prepaid debit card you load separately and use directly at the cashier. Withdrawals follow the same rails you deposited with, so what goes in via Venmo comes back out the same way, subject to the identity check completing on your account first.
How We Protect Your cardsharp Account
From the moment you submit your registration form, the data you enter — name, email, payment details — moves over an encrypted connection. Identity verification is handled through a standard US-compliant process, and your documents are not stored longer than required. Two-factor authentication via OTP is active on every account by default, so a stolen password alone can't access your wallet or cashier.
Every page of the registration flow uses SSL encryption, so your personal details and payment credentials are protected in transit from your phone to our servers.
We use a standard US identity check — date of birth plus last four SSN digits — to confirm you before your first cashier transaction is authorized.
OTP confirmation is on by default. Every new device or browser session triggers a one-time code sent to your registered number before the lobby opens.
Your registration data is used only for account operation and identity compliance. We don't sell personal information to third-party marketing lists.
What to Expect When You Register
Start by entering your name, email address, and a password you'll actually remember — nothing complicated. After that, we'll ask for your date of birth and the last four digits of your Social Security number to complete identity verification; this is standard for any US-regulated account and keeps your wallet secure. Once that clears, you
can link PayPal, connect your Venmo account, or load a Play+ prepaid card straight from the payments tab. Players in Atlantic City and other eligible markets can switch between the sportsbook and live dealer tables without re-authenticating. If anything stalls during signup, our account support channel is listed on the help page with current response
windows.
