Get Into the Lobby in a Few Steps
Creating your barstoolwagers account puts live dealer tables, slot rooms, and an NFL-ready sportsbook within reach — all accessible from your phone or desktop wherever state law permits. Link PayPal, Venmo, or a Play+ prepaid card and you're ready to move.
What to Expect When You Register
The sign-up form asks for your name, email address, date of birth, and the last four digits of your Social Security number — standard identity verification required under state gaming regulations. Once you submit, you may be prompted to confirm your email with a one-time code before your account activates. After that, head straight to
the wallet section to connect your preferred payment method. PayPal and Venmo link through their standard OAuth flow, so you authorize barstoolwagers without handing over your credentials. Play+ works as a prepaid card you load separately and enter at checkout. If any step flags for manual review, our account support team follows up by email.
Keep your government-issued ID nearby in case the system requests a document upload to complete verification.

Identity Verification Built In State gaming rules require ID confirmation at sign-up. The form collects standard details; a document upload may follow if the automated check needs a second look.
-
Email Confirmation Step A one-time code lands in your inbox after you submit the form. Enter it to activate your account before you can access the lobby or wallet.
-
Wallet Connected at Activation Link PayPal or Venmo via their secure authorization screen right after account activation. Play+ can be added as a prepaid card number in the same wallet section.

Local Payment Methods We Accept
Connecting a payment method is the last step before you can browse the lobby. We built the wallet around the payment rails Americans already use — no wire transfers, no obscure e-wallets. Pick whichever fits your habit and the funds move through a channel you already know how to manage.
PayPal
Authorize barstoolwagers inside your PayPal account once, and deposits move without re-entering card details. Withdrawals route back to the same PayPal balance.
Venmo
If Venmo is already on your phone, adding it to your account wallet takes seconds. Send and receive funds through the same app you use every day.
Play+
Load a Play+ prepaid card to a balance you control, then enter the card number in your wallet. Useful when you want to keep gaming funds separate from your checking account.
