How to Open a Skrill account

Opening a Skrill account as an Indian is easy and straightforward.

To open an account, you go to Skrill.com and click on "Register" in the top-right corner.

Now, you just need to provide simple details such as your name, full address, date of birth and a government-issued identification proof like an Aadhaar card.

Once your general and contact details are entered, Skrill will take some time to verify your credentials to be eligible to make transactions.

Additionally, you may also be asked to provide:

• A colour print of any valid identification card such as your driver's license, passport or others.
• A picture of you holding your identity proof
• A bank statement or a utility bill from the last three months.

Once verified, you will be all set to start sending and receiving money through Skrill, be it wallet transfers or direct transfers to a bank account.

Now it's time to deposit some money into your Skrill account so you can send that money to your betting account!
