Frequently Asked Questions

Yes – World Cup News operates under a Curaçao eGaming licence, which is audited regularly by independent testing agencies to ensure fair play and compliance with anti‑money‑laundering standards. This licence covers all sports‑betting products offered on the site.

During registration you’ll be asked to upload a clear photo of a government‑issued ID (passport, national ID or driver’s licence) and a recent utility bill or bank statement showing your name and address. In some cases a brief selfie with the ID may be required. All documents are usually verified within 24 hours.

World Cup News accepts Visa and Mastercard, Skrill, Neteller, ecoPayz, direct bank transfer and the cryptocurrencies Bitcoin, Ethereum and USDT. Deposits are instant for cards and e‑wallets; crypto deposits appear after one network confirmation. Withdrawals to e‑wallets are processed within 24 hours, while card and bank transfers take 3‑5 business days.

Unless a market is explicitly labelled ‘90 minutes only’, bets on match‑outcome markets are settled on the official result after extra time and penalties. For example, a win‑draw‑win bet that predicts the winner after extra time will be paid out accordingly. If a match is postponed and not rescheduled within 48 hours, the bet is voided and stakes are refunded.

The highest amount you can win on a single wager is capped at $100,000 (or equivalent in your currency). For any 24‑hour period the total payout limit is $250,000. Any winnings exceeding these thresholds will be paid out in instalments over the next betting days.

You can set daily, weekly or monthly deposit limits, loss limits and wagering caps directly in your account settings. The site also offers a self‑exclusion option (from 24 hours up to permanent) and a time‑out period to pause play.
