What You'll Find in These Answers

Every question here came from a real account interaction — the kind of thing someone in Pittsburgh asks us through live chat before their first deposit, or that a returning account holder sends in after a withdrawal request. We've organized them into clear topics: how to fund your account using PayPal, Venmo, or a Play+ prepaid card; how state law affects access;

what identity verification actually involves; and how our account wallet handles pending transactions. If you're reading this on your phone between quarters, the answers are short enough to scan and specific enough to act on. Anything not covered here goes straight to our support team via live chat — they can pull up your account and walk through the details in real

time.

WHY THESE ANSWERS HOLD UP

What Makes This FAQ Reliable

We update these answers whenever something changes — a payment process, a state eligibility update, or an account flow adjustment. The goal is that you never have to contact support for something a clear FAQ answer could handle in thirty seconds.

Written by the operations team

Every answer here was drafted by the same team that handles live chat — people who see the actual questions that come in every day, not generic copy.

State law accuracy

Eligibility answers reflect the state-by-state nature of US online gaming law. We don't overclaim — access depends on where you are and what your state permits.

Payment process precision

Deposit and withdrawal answers describe the actual steps for PayPal, Venmo, and Play+ — not a generic 'follow the prompts' gesture that leaves you guessing.

Account security context

Our identity verification answers explain what we check, why we check it, and what you need to have ready — so the process doesn't catch you off guard.

The Questions We Hear Most

These cover the situations that come up most often — before a first deposit, after a withdrawal request, and at the state-eligibility step. Scan the question that matches yours and the answer will tell you exactly what to do next.

Access depends on your state's online gaming laws. When you open an account, we check your location automatically. If your state doesn't permit access, you'll see a clear message at that step rather than after you've deposited.

Go to the Cashier section of your account, select PayPal or Venmo, enter the amount, and authorize the transfer through your existing PayPal or Venmo app. The funds land in your account wallet once the authorization confirms — no need to re-enter card details.

Play+ is a prepaid account tied directly to your openodds wallet. Load it from your bank or debit card, then use it to deposit without routing funds through your main bank account. It works on mobile the same way it works on desktop.

We verify your identity to comply with US financial regulations. You'll need a government-issued photo ID and, in some cases, proof of address. Upload them through the Verification tab in your account settings — most reviews complete without needing anything further from you.

Withdrawal timing depends on the method you choose and whether your account has completed identity verification. PayPal and Venmo withdrawals process faster than check requests once verification is cleared. Check the withdrawal status inside your account wallet for real-time updates.

Yes. Your account session and wallet balance stay consistent across devices. Start a session on your phone during halftime and pick it up on your laptop later — your account state, pending bets, and payment history all carry over without any extra steps.
