DM First KYC Process 2026: Documents Required and How to Verify

Last updated: 26 September 2026 | Reading time: 8 minutes

You try to withdraw a large amount. The system blocks it. Asks for KYC.

For most players, this is the first time they hear about KYC on DM First. And it feels annoying. Why do they need documents now?

The answer is simple. It is a legal requirement. Any platform handling real money above a certain limit has to verify who its users are. It protects the platform from fraud. And it protects you from someone else accessing your account.

Let me walk you through the whole thing. What KYC is, what documents you need, how to submit them, and what to do if it gets rejected.

When Do You Need KYC?

You do not need KYC to start playing on DM First. You can register, deposit small amounts, play games, and withdraw small amounts without ever submitting documents.

KYC kicks in when:

You want to withdraw an amount above the standard limit. The platform triggers KYC when the balance or withdrawal request crosses a threshold.

You have been flagged for unusual activity. Maybe multiple deposits from different accounts. Or a sudden spike in activity. DM First will ask for KYC to confirm the account belongs to a real person.

You have deposited above a certain total. Say you have deposited ₹50,000 over time. The platform now wants to verify who you are.

If you are a casual player with small amounts, you may never need KYC. If you play seriously, you will need it at some point.

Documents You Need

DM First accepts a few types of documents. You only need one from the ID list and one selfie.

For most users, the ID proof and selfie are enough. Bank proof is only needed if the platform is verifying that your registered bank account matches your name.

Make sure the name on your ID matches the name on your DM First account. If they do not match, the KYC will be rejected.

How to Submit KYC on DM First

Here is the full process step by step.

Open the DM First app. Tap the Account tab. Find the KYC option. It may be hidden if it is not yet triggered. Once DM First requests KYC, the option appears.

Tap on KYC. You will see a form asking for your name, date of birth, and ID type. Fill in exactly what is on your ID.

Next, upload a photo of your ID. Take a clear photo. The entire document should be visible. No blur. No shadows covering important parts. No cropped edges.

Then take a selfie. Look directly at the camera. Good lighting. No sunglasses. No hat. No other people in the photo.

If bank proof is requested, upload a screenshot or photo showing your bank account number, IFSC code, and account holder name.

Submit all documents. You will get a confirmation that the KYC is under review.

How Long Does Verification Take?

Usually 1 to 24 hours. Sometimes it is instant. Sometimes it takes a bit longer if the review team is busy.

You will get a notification when your KYC is approved. The KYC option in the account section will also show a "verified" badge.

If it has been more than 24 hours, contact support through the app or Telegram. Read our DM First customer support page.

Common Reasons KYC Gets Rejected

Most rejections are because of simple things. Let me list them so you can avoid them.

Blurry photos. If the photo does not clearly show the ID number and photo, it will be rejected. Take photos in good light. Hold the phone steady. Do not use filters.

Name mismatch. Your DM First account name and ID name must match. If you used a nickname or short form during registration, correct it first.

Expired documents. Old IDs are not accepted. Make sure your ID is valid.

Partial documents. Do not crop the image. The full document should be visible. Corners included.

Selfie issues. No sunglasses. No mask. No group photos. Just your face, clearly visible.

Old blurry photo of a photo. Do not photograph an old picture of your ID. Take a fresh photo of the actual document.

What to Do If KYC Is Rejected

First, check the reason. The app usually shows why the KYC was rejected. Read it carefully.

Fix that specific issue. If it is a blurry photo, retake the photo. If it is a name mismatch, update the account name first.

Re-submit the documents. You can submit multiple times. There is no penalty for resubmitting.

If you have fixed everything and it still gets rejected, contact support. Tell them exactly what is happening. Sometimes there is a system error that the support team can override.

Is KYC Safe on DM First?

Yes. All your documents are encrypted with 256-bit SSL. They are stored on secure servers. Only the KYC review team has access. The documents are not shared with any third party.

The KYC process on DM First is the same level of security as any bank or financial app. It is designed to protect you and the platform.
