Does it cost anything to open a WPT Global account?

No. Opening an account is free, and WPT Global says its software is free to install. You only pay if you deposit to play for real money; a first deposit of US$10 or more qualifies for the welcome package, and freerolls cost nothing to enter.

Do I need to upload ID when I sign up for WPT Global?

No. WPT Global lets you register and start playing first. It asks for ID and proof of address when your account reaches certain thresholds or before your first withdrawal, and usually finishes the check within 72 hours of receiving every document.

Can I open two WPT Global accounts?

No. The terms allow one account per person. Extra accounts can be closed and the money in them held, and promotions count one player per household or device, so take care if family members share a phone or computer.

I forgot the referral code. Can I add it after signing up?

WPT Global has not stated this publicly; official announcements prevail. The safe move is to look at the Referral code field before you submit the form and type (Invite code coming soon) in if it is empty.

Is the bonus code the same as the referral code?

No. They are two separate fields. The referral code records who invited you, while a bonus code belongs to a specific promotion. Leave Bonus code empty unless you have one; the welcome package depends on your first deposit, not on a code.

How long does WPT Global KYC verification take?

Usually up to 72 hours after WPT Global has every document it needs. To pass first time, keep all four corners of your ID in the photo, use proof of address from the last three months and photograph both sides of any card you deposited with.

How to Sign Up for WPT Global: Account and KYC

Our invite code is coming soon. Signing up through this button still gets you the official welcome package; once published, the download links from this page carry the code.

What should you check before signing up for WPT Global?

Start with age. WPT Global only accepts players who are 18 or over, or the legal gambling age where they live, and its sign-up forms say that registering confirms you meet that requirement.

Next, accounts. The terms allow one account per person. WPT Global can close any extra account the same person opens and hold the money in it, and its promotions count one player per household or per device.

Last, where you are. WPT Global operates in more than 135 countries, but its terms list restricted regions that include the United States, the United Kingdom, Hong Kong, mainland China, Japan, the Philippines, Singapore and India. Using a VPN, proxy or location app to hide or change where you are breaks the terms, and so does logging in from a restricted region while you travel. Online poker laws also differ by country, so check the rules where you live before you open an account.

How do you create a WPT Global account in 6 steps?

Open the invite page. Tap a sign-up button on this site. It opens WPT Global's English invite page, and our referral code travels in the page address.
Download the app for your device. Tap Download WPT Global. Android gets the official APK, Windows and Mac get desktop installers, and iPhone depends on which country's App Store you use. The download guide covers each device.
Install the app and tap Register. Open WPT Global after installing. On a computer, the first launch shows a guest lobby with Login and Register buttons on the left. The account is created here because the English invite page has no web sign-up form.
Enter your email, password and username. Pick an email address you actually read, since you verify the account through it.
Check the Referral code field. It should show Invite code coming soon. If it is empty, type the code in. The Bonus code field is a different one; leave it blank unless you have a promotion code.
Submit, verify your email and log in. Registering confirms you are 18 or over and accept WPT Global's terms and privacy policy. Verify your email when the app asks, then log in with your username and password.

Note: WPT Global has not stated publicly whether a referral code can be added after registration; official announcements prevail. Look at the Referral code field before you submit and you avoid the question.

What goes in each field of the sign-up form?

Field	What to enter	Tip
Email	An address you check	You verify the account through it
Password	Your own choice	Don't reuse a password from another site
Username	Your own choice	You log in with it on every device
Bonus code	A promotion code, if you have one	Separate from the referral code; leave it empty otherwise
Referral code	Invite code coming soon	Type it in if the field is empty

Can you use one account on your phone and computer?

Yes, and you should. Once the account exists, log in with the same username and password on Android, iPhone, Windows or Mac. Never register again because you switched devices: a second registration creates a second account, which the one-account rule forbids.

When does WPT Global ask for KYC, and what do you need?

You don't need documents to start. WPT Global's verification page says you can register, enter your details and play; it asks for verification when an account reaches certain thresholds or in particular situations, and the terms single out the time before your first withdrawal. Once WPT Global has every document it needs, verification usually takes up to 72 hours.

When you are asked, have these ready:

A national ID card, passport or driver's license, photographed with all four corners visible and the date of birth, issue date and expiry date readable
Proof of address, such as a utility bill dated within the last three months
Proof of deposit and, if you paid by card, clear photos of both sides of the card

Photograph them right after you open the account, so your first withdrawal isn't held up waiting for paperwork. The withdrawal rules are in the withdrawal guide.

What should you do once your account is open?

Decide on your first deposit. The welcome package only looks at a new player's first deposit: a single deposit of US$10 or more brings a package worth US$15.50 straight away, and larger deposits add more tournament tickets and Casino Coins. The tiers are on the welcome bonus page, and the cashier steps are in the deposit guide.

Then try a few freerolls to learn the tables. WPT Global says all its poker promotions currently require a deposit, but freerolls cost nothing to enter. If the bonus code and referral code still look alike, the invite code guide sets out the difference.
