Account and registration

KYC (Know Your Customer) verification on boom88 requires four documents: a government-issued ID (passport, national ID card, or driver's licence), a proof of address dated within the last three months (utility bill, bank statement, or rental agreement), your full legal name and date of birth, and a mobile number for two-factor authentication. We verify these details against official records. If your information does not match or appears incomplete, we'll ask you to resubmit. Verification typically completes within a few hours. Users in Jakarta, Surabaya, Bandung, Medan, and Semarang follow the same process. Do not submit forged or altered documents—we reject these immediately and may flag your account.

To reset your password, go to the login page and click the "Forgot password?" link. Enter your registered email address. We'll send a password-reset link to that email within a few minutes. Click the link in the email (it expires after 24 hours) and follow the prompts to create a new password. If you don't receive an email, check your spam folder or contact support. Once you've reset your password, sign in with your username and new password. If you've also enabled two-factor authentication (2FA), you'll need to provide your 2FA code after entering your password. For extra security, use a strong password combining uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols.

Log into your boom88 account and navigate to Account Settings. Here, you can update your registered email, mobile number, password, and payment methods. You can also manage your two-factor authentication (2FA) settings, view your KYC status, and check your Boom City tier. If you wish to pause your account temporarily, select the option to deactivate your account for a specified period (ranging from a few days to several weeks). During a deactivation period, you cannot log in or place bets, but your balance remains intact and is accessible once you reactivate. To reactivate, contact support or log in again with your credentials after the deactivation window ends. Full account closure is permanent; contact support to discuss this option.

Payments and transactions

boom88 supports deposits via multiple channels: DANA, e-wallet, mobile banking, local payment, online payment, e-wallet, and major Indonesian banks (mobile banking, local payment, online payment, e-wallet). Deposit ranges vary slightly by payment method, but generally start from our welcome offerinimum and scale up based on your account tier and verification status. New accounts have a standard daily deposit cap; this increases as your account matures and your Boom City tier advances. Bank transfers (mobile banking, local payment, online payment, e-wallet) typically have higher limits for verified accounts. All deposits are processed instantly or within minutes depending on the payment gateway. For detailed limits applicable to your account, log into boom88 and check the Deposit page, which displays your current minimum and maximum per transaction and per day.

If a deposit or withdrawal does not complete, the first step is to check your boom88 account transaction history to see the status. For deposits: if the payment gateway declined your transaction, your money returns to your original payment method (mobile banking, local payment, online payment, e-wallet, bank account, etc.) within 1-3 business days. If the transaction shows "pending" in your boom88 history, do not retry immediately—wait a few hours for processing to finish. For withdrawals: if your withdrawal is delayed, check your Account Settings to confirm your payment method is correct and verified. Withdrawals to mobile banking, local payment, and online payment typically complete within hours; bank transfers (e-wallet, mobile banking, local payment, online payment) may take 1-2 business days. If funds do not arrive within the stated window, contact support with your transaction ID so we can investigate.

We offer a welcome bonus to new accounts that meet specific eligibility criteria. Rather than naming a fixed amount, we structure the offer as a percentage match on your first deposit, with terms that include a minimum deposit threshold, a wagering requirement, and game restrictions. To claim, you deposit, meet the qualifying amount, and the bonus credits automatically to your account. From that point, you must wager the combined balance (your deposit plus bonus) a set number of times across eligible games before you can withdraw. Not all games contribute equally to wagering requirements—football betting, for example, may count at a lower percentage than slots. Bonuses expire if unused within a specified window (typically 7-14 days). For the exact bonus terms and eligibility rules for your account, check the Promotions page inside boom88 immediately after registration.

Games and markets

Live-dealer tables on boom88 feature a real human dealer streamed via video from a studio. You place bets on outcomes—such as blackjack hand results, roulette spins, or Dragon Tiger—and the dealer executes the game in real time. You can see the dealer, the table, and the action unfold. Settlement is immediate. Slot games, by contrast, are automated digital machines (such as Aviator, Sweet Bonanza, Gates of Olympus, Fortune Tiger, and Mahjong Ways) where the outcome is generated by an algorithm. You click Spin, the reels animate, and the result is determined instantly. Slots are faster-paced than live tables; you can play multiple rounds per minute. Live tables emphasize interaction and authenticity; slots emphasize speed and simplicity. Both are available on boom88. Which you choose depends on your preference for pace and experience style.

Security and account care

Our support team at boom88 provides assistance in English and Indonesian (Bahasa Indonesia). You can reach support via the in-app help centre, email, or live chat. Response times vary depending on demand—during peak hours (evenings in Jakarta and Surabaya), you may experience longer waits. For account-specific issues such as KYC delays, transaction problems, or security concerns, provide your username, account email, and as much detail as possible. Do not share your password or 2FA code with support staff. Our team uses secure channels to communicate and will never ask for sensitive credentials via email or chat. If you prefer, you can also check our FAQ page for common answers before contacting support.
