Account and registration

No. Our terms of use permit one active account per user. If we detect duplicate accounts, we close all but the first account and may restrict the person from opening new accounts. Multiple accounts violate mahjong188's account verification process and payment security requirements. If you've forgotten your login details, use our account recovery service—contact our support team, and we'll help verify your identity and reset your credentials within one business day.

During registration, you provide a username, email address, mobile number (confirmed during signup), and password. After opening an account, we ask for your full legal name, date of birth, and national ID number to complete KYC verification. You'll submit a photograph of your government-issued ID (national ID, passport, or driving licence) and a proof of address document. This verification typically completes within one business day. If documents are unclear, our team requests resubmission via email; you can upload replacements within one business day.

Click the "Forgot your password?" link on the login page. Enter your registered email or username, and we'll send a password reset link to your email. The link remains valid for 24 hours. Click it, create a new password, and log in immediately. If you don't receive the email within subject to verification, check your spam folder. If the problem persists, contact our support team with your username and registered email address; we'll reset your password manually and send instructions within one business day.

Contact our support team to request account closure. Provide your username and registered email for verification. We close the account and return any remaining balance to your original payment method within one business day. Once closed, your account cannot be reactivated; you would need to open a new account with a different username. Account closure data is retained for five years as required by law. Ensure all outstanding bets are settled and withdrawals processed before requesting closure.

You can update your email address, mobile number, and password at any time via your account settings. Changes to legal name, date of birth, or identity document information require contacting our support team with proof of the update (e.g., updated government ID). KYC-related changes must be verified before taking effect; this typically completes within one business day. Payment method changes can be made at checkout for each transaction. Contact our support team if you need to update your residential address for compliance.

Payments and transactions

We accept deposits via local payment, online payment, e-wallet, mobile banking, local payment, and online payment. When you choose one of these methods at checkout, you're redirected to the payment provider's secure page. Complete the payment using your registered account; the funds appear in your mahjong188 balance within minutes. We do not store your payment credentials—the transfer is handled entirely by the payment provider. If a transaction fails, check your payment provider's app to confirm the status; our support team can investigate pending deposits within one business day.

Minimum and maximum deposit amounts depend on your chosen payment method. Most payment methods (e-wallet, mobile banking, local payment, online payment, e-wallet, mobile banking) support deposits from our welcome offer upwards with daily limits varying by payment provider. Direct bank transfers (local payment, online payment, e-wallet, mobile banking) may have higher maximums. Check the deposit screen in your account for the exact limits for your chosen method—limits are shown before you confirm payment. If a deposit exceeds your payment provider's daily limit, split it across multiple transactions or select a different payment method.

Withdrawals to local payment, online payment, e-wallet, mobile banking, local payment, online payment, or direct bank transfer typically complete within one business day. We process withdrawal requests during business hours (Monday to Sunday, 09:00 to 22:00 local time). Requests submitted outside these hours are queued and processed the next business day. Your bank or payment provider may take an additional 1-2 business days to credit the funds to your account. If a withdrawal does not arrive within two business days, contact our support team with your withdrawal reference number.

No. All deposits must be made from payment accounts registered in your own legal name. Deposits from third-party accounts (friends, family, business accounts) are not accepted and will be rejected at checkout. During KYC verification, we confirm that your payment methods match your registered identity. This protects both you and mahjong188 from fraud and regulatory violations. If you need to add a new payment method, update it in your account settings with an account registered to you.
