Evidence checklist for Fairplay

After filling the missing records, return to the workspace with the same platform and issue type.

Platform: FairplayIssue: Bonus dispute

1
Find the missing record

Order ID, amount, timeline, support log, or KYC status.

2
Match platform status

Guaranteed, unknown, or blacklisted platforms need different proof.

3
Return to the claim workspace

Generate the email only after required records are ready.

Claims with no verifiable records are usually rejected. Use this page as the standard path for missing-record, weak-evidence, or rejected claims from withdrawal, KYC, account, bonus, fraud, settlement, and system-failure pages.

If the checker says your evidence is missing, start here

You do not need to rewrite the whole complaint. First fill the missing records, then return to the email template and submit a cleaner evidence file.

Amount and currency

The disputed value and currency, such as 9400 USDT or HKD 12,000.

5
Timeline

What happened, in order, with dates and platform replies.

Evidence that makes the file stronger
  • Cashier, balance, withdrawal, deposit, or bet result screenshots
  • Full support chat or email thread with timestamps
  • KYC status screenshot or account review notice
  • Wallet, bank, or payment provider record
  • Bonus, wagering, or platform terms shown at the time of dispute
Usually not enough on its own
  • Memory-only descriptions without records
  • Screenshots with hidden platform name, amount, date, or order ID
  • Social media posts or third-party messages without original records
  • A single screenshot that cannot be tied to a transaction timeline

Use this as the rejected or weak-claim evidence standard

This is the reference path for weak, unsupported, missing-record, or rejected claims from safety pages and case records.

Evidence requirements by platform status

Evidence requirements change based on the platform signal. Guaranteed platforms need order and KYC proof; blacklisted and unknown platforms need stronger identity, payment, domain, and support records.

01

What Counts as Sufficient Evidence

MGA and UKGC arbitration panels require a minimum evidence threshold before a dispute can proceed. Understanding what constitutes acceptable evidence is the first step to protecting your claim.

Transaction Records

Bank statements, e-wallet history, or crypto transaction hashes that prove deposits and withdrawals were made at specific times and amounts.

Screenshots

Time-stamped screenshots of game results, bonus balances, account balances, and any disputed promotional terms visible on screen.

Communication Logs

Full email threads, live chat transcripts, and support ticket histories showing what the casino told you and when.

What Is Not Sufficient

Verbal descriptions, memory alone, social media posts, and third-party claims without corroborating documentation are insufficient for formal arbitration.

02

Sufficient vs. Insufficient Evidence — Comparison

This table reflects how MGA-licensed casinos and IBAS arbitration panels evaluate evidence in player disputes.

Transaction Proof

Enough: Bank/e-wallet statement with date, amount, and recipient. Not enough: Memory of transaction without any financial record.

Game Result

Enough: Screenshot or video with timestamp and balance shown. Not enough: Description of what happened with no recorded evidence.

Bonus Terms

Enough: Screenshot of applicable terms at time of claim. Not enough: Assertion that terms were different without documentation.

03

How to Document a Dispute in Real Time

The best time to gather evidence is before you contact the casino. Once you identify a problem, follow these steps immediately.

1. Screenshot Everything

Capture your account balance, the disputed game or transaction, any promotional terms visible on screen, and the date/time shown in your browser or device.

2. Export Transaction History

Download your bank statement, e-wallet export, or crypto transaction record covering the relevant dates. Do this before the dispute escalates.

3. Save All Communications

Forward every support email to a personal address. Export live chat transcripts immediately after each session — many casinos purge them after 30 days.

4. Record the Timeline

Write a plain-language summary of events in chronological order, noting exact dates and times. This helps arbitrators understand context without relying on memory.

04

How GOOD CASINO Reviews Evidence

When a player submits a dispute, GOOD CASINO evaluates the evidence package against the casino's own records to determine if a discrepancy exists.

Check 1

Transaction timestamps are cross-referenced with the casino's payment processor records

Check 2

Game screenshots are verified against the casino's RNG audit trail

Check 3

Communication logs are compared with the casino's support ticket system

Check 4

Bonus terms are checked against the casino's published terms history

05

How to Ask for Missing Records

If your file is missing records, ask the platform for the specific account, transaction, support, or game-session records you need. Availability depends on the platform and market.

Account records

Ask for the account ID, registered contact, restriction notice, and current status.

Transaction records

Ask for withdrawal IDs, deposit references, wallet addresses, bet slips, or exported transaction history.

Communication logs

Request full live-chat transcripts or email threads, including timestamps.

Game session data

For game disputes, ask for the round ID, settlement log, or provider reference where available.

06

Strengthening a Claim With Limited Evidence

If you did not preserve evidence at the time, there are still steps you can take to build a credible case.

1. Submit a GDPR Data Request

Request all data the casino holds on you immediately. This may include game logs, transaction records, and support interactions you no longer have locally.

2. Request Internal Escalation

Submit a formal written complaint to the casino's disputes team. This creates a timestamped record of your claim and forces the casino to acknowledge it.

3. Check Payment Provider Records

Your bank, e-wallet provider, or crypto exchange may hold records of transactions that you can use to corroborate your claim.

4. GOOD CASINO Technical Review

Submit your case to GOOD CASINO with all available evidence. We can request supplementary technical records from the casino as part of our independent review process.

Common evidence questions

What evidence is needed for a casino dispute claim?

Useful evidence includes transaction IDs, screenshots, chat transcripts, account history, timestamps, and the original terms that applied to the dispute.

Can a rejected case be reopened with new evidence?

Yes. A case can be reconsidered when the player submits material evidence that was not available or not provided during the first review.

Evidence looks ready?

Go back to the claim template, generate the email, and attach the screenshots or exported records in your mail client.

If your file is still missing screenshots, support logs, or transaction IDs, use the checklist above before submitting.

Evidence and claim path

Use this when the dispute depends on proof quality

Evidence-led cases need a clear timeline, platform records, player-side screenshots, and a specific claim amount. Weak or incomplete proof usually leads to rejection.

Player task: build a clean evidence file before asking GOOD CASINO or a platform to act.

Evidence to save first

  • Timeline with exact dates, amounts, bet IDs, order IDs, and affected balances
  • Screenshots or exported records from the platform, not rewritten summaries
  • Support messages that confirm the platform's explanation or refusal
