Pelican Casino registration & login - Ready in minutes

Creating an account at Pelican Casino literally takes 2–3 minutes. No complicated process, no unnecessary questions. You enter the basics, confirm your email, and you are ready to go. Verification comes later - only when you want to withdraw.

Login is straightforward. Email + password, done. For extra security you can enable 2FA, but it is optional. Your session stays active if you tick “Keep me logged in” - convenient if you play regularly on the same device.

Registration step by step

The process is intentionally kept simple. The faster you can start playing, the better.

Step 1: Enter your personal details

Click the “Register” button in the top right. A form will appear with the following required fields:

Email address - must be valid, the confirmation link will be sent there
Password - at least 8 characters, ideally a mix of letters, numbers, and symbols
Date of birth - you must be 18+, otherwise you cannot continue
Country - often preselected based on your location
Currency - EUR is commonly the default in Europe

Optional fields like phone number can be skipped. Name and address become important later during verification.

Step 2: Confirm your email

After submitting, a confirmation email arrives within 1–2 minutes. Check your spam folder if nothing shows up. Click the link in the email and your account is activated. Sometimes the login page opens automatically, sometimes you need to return to the website manually.

Step 3: Complete your profile (optional)

You can deposit and play immediately. But it makes sense to fully complete your profile - name, address, phone number. This saves time later during verification. Do not forget to enter your date of birth if you want to qualify for the birthday bonus.

Login process & tips

Standard login is simple: enter email and password, click “Log in”. If you forgot your password, use the “Forgot password?” link - a new password/reset link will be sent via email.

Keep me logged in - yes or no?

The “Keep me logged in” checkbox stores your session in the browser. Convenient if you play from your personal device. Never enable it on public computers or shared devices - serious security risk.

Two-factor authentication (2FA)

You can find it in account settings under Security. If you enable 2FA, you will need an additional code at every login, either via SMS or an authenticator app. This makes your account much safer, especially if you play with larger amounts.

Setup takes about 2 minutes: scan the QR code with Google Authenticator or Authy, test once to confirm it works, done. On each login you then enter your password plus the 6-digit code from the app.

Fixing login problems

Most common issues and solutions:

Wrong password - use “Forgot password” and set a new one
Email not confirmed - check inbox + spam, request a new confirmation link
Account locked - after 5 failed login attempts the account is temporarily locked; it usually unlocks automatically after 30 minutes or you can contact support
Browser/cache issues - clear cookies, restart your browser, try again

Verification (KYC) - What you need to know

The Know Your Customer process is required by law. Every reputable online casino has to do it. At Pelican you can deposit and play without verification, but you MUST be verified before your first withdrawal.

Which documents are required?

Standard set:

ID document - national ID card (both sides) or passport (photo page). Must be valid; expired documents are rejected.
Proof of address - utility bill, bank statement, registration certificate, phone/internet bill. Important: not older than 3 months, and your name and address must be clearly readable.
Payment proof (for card payments) - photo of the bank card. You may cover the middle 8 digits; only the first 4 and last 4 must be visible. Always cover the CVV on the back.

Upload process

Go to Account settings → Verification. There you will see which documents are still missing. Click Upload, select the file, submit. Accepted formats: JPG, PNG, PDF. Maximum file size is usually 5 MB.

Take clear photos or scans. All corners must be visible, no cropped edges. Text must be sharp and readable. Blurry or partially covered documents will be rejected and you will need to upload again.

Processing time

Typically 24–48 hours on business days. Sometimes faster, sometimes longer when it is busy. You will receive an email once the review is complete. If rejected, the email explains why - usually unreadable documents or wrong document types.

Why verification matters

It protects both sides. The casino must ensure you are of legal age and not using a stolen identity. You are protected because nobody else can withdraw under your name. After successful verification, future withdrawals are much faster.

Account settings & personalisation

In the account area you can adjust various settings.

Personal information

Name, address, date of birth, phone number. Some fields cannot be changed after verification - logically, otherwise anyone could switch identity. For real changes (moving address, etc.) you need to contact support and provide new documents.

Communication preferences

Here you choose which emails you want to receive:

Promotions & bonus offers - weekly newsletters with current deals
Product updates - new games, features, payment methods
Account notifications - login from a new device, withdrawals, deposits

You can also enable SMS notifications if you have added a phone number. Useful for 2FA codes or important account updates.

Set limits - Responsible gambling

An important feature that is often overlooked. You can set different limits:

Deposit limit - maximum X€ per day/week/month. You cannot exceed it, protecting against impulsive deposits.
Loss limit - maximum net losses per period. Once reached, you cannot play until the period resets.
Session limit - after X minutes/hours your session ends automatically, preventing you from losing track of time.
Bet limit - maximum stake per spin/hand. Useful if you tend to raise bets too high when frustrated.

Limits take effect immediately. Increases usually have a cooling-off period of 24–72 hours. Reductions take effect immediately.

Self-exclusion options

If limits are not enough, there are stronger measures available.

Cool-off period

A temporary break from 24 hours up to 6 weeks. You choose the duration; during that time you cannot log in, play, or deposit. After the period ends, the account is automatically reactivated. Useful if you feel you are spending too much time/money.

Self-exclusion (6–12 months)

A longer break. If you choose 6 or 12 months, your account will be blocked. It CANNOT be lifted early, even if you regret it. Only after the selected time ends can you request reactivation.

Permanent exclusion

Final. The account is permanently closed and can never be reactivated. Use this only if you are truly sure. For serious gambling problems, this is often the best option together with professional help.

Support organisations

If you need help, consider contacting:

BZgA (Federal Centre for Health Education) - free counselling hotline (Germany)
Gamblers Anonymous - self-help groups
Addiction prevention counselling services - confidential support

Login from multiple devices

You can log in from unlimited devices - desktop, laptop, phone, tablet. Sessions can run in parallel without issues. But only one active gameplay window at a time - if you play on two devices simultaneously, one session will be ended automatically.

Device security

In your settings you can see all devices where you are logged in. You can end individual sessions if a device was lost or you notice suspicious activity. When you log in from a new device, you often receive an email confirmation - protection against unauthorised access.

Mobile vs desktop experience

Both are identical in functionality. Mobile is optimised for touch; desktop offers more screen space for multi-table play or several slots at once. Account management, deposits, withdrawals, support - everything works the same on both platforms.

Account security - Best practices

Your account can contain money, so treat it accordingly.

Create a strong password

Minimum 12 characters. Mix upper- and lower-case letters, numbers, and symbols. No dictionary words, no personal information like birthday or name. Use a unique password for each casino - if one gets compromised, the others remain safe.

Password managers like 1Password or Bitwarden help generate and store strong passwords. Then you only need to remember one master password instead of 20 different ones.

Recognise phishing

Genuine Pelican emails come from @pelicancasino-bonus.com domains. Suspicious signs:

Strange sender addresses ([email protected] etc.)
Urgent threats like “Account will be closed in 24h”
Links to similar-looking domains (pelicancasino-secure.com)
Spelling mistakes and poor grammar

If in doubt, do NOT click links. Go directly to the website by typing the URL or using bookmarks. Ask support if the email was real.

Avoid public networks

Using your casino account on public Wi‑Fi is risky. Unencrypted networks can be intercepted. If absolutely necessary: use a VPN for an encrypted connection. Home networks or mobile data are safer.

Close or reactivate your account

Temporary closure

Need a break? Use a cool-off period instead of closing your account. After the break everything stays as before - balance, VIP status, everything remains.

Permanent closure

You need to contact support. They ask for the reason - to improve, not to talk you out of it. Any remaining balance is paid out, then the account is closed. Reactivation later is possible except in cases of self-exclusion.

Reactivate your account

Voluntarily closed accounts can be reactivated. Email support; they check whether everything is OK and reopen the account. VIP level and history usually remain if not too much time has passed.

Common registration mistakes

Some problems come up again and again:

Email already registered - you may already have an account and forgot. Try “Forgot password”.
Country not available - Pelican does not accept all countries. A VPN will not help - you must provide real documents during verification.
Age verification failed - your date of birth shows you are under 18. You must be 18+, no exceptions.
Form cannot be submitted - usually a browser issue. Cookies and JavaScript must be enabled. Try another browser.
