Cons

Who it suits

- Anyone comfortable with required identity checks and payouts that clear Within 3 business days
Who should look elsewhere

Limits and self-exclusion
Player protection rests on deposit limits and reality check, so deposit limits and reality checks can be set inside the account rather than negotiated with support. Identity checks are required, so expect to send documents before the account is fully usable. Set limits before you add funds and treat a reality check as a signal to stop rather than a reminder to keep going.
