  • Date of birth for age verification purposes (21 years and above).
  • An active and reachable email address.
  • A Malaysian mobile number registered in your name.

The security of your personal data is citi88's highest priority. We implement multiple layers of technical and organizational protection to ensure your data remains safe from unauthorized access, disclosure, or modification at all times.

  • Active 24/7 threat monitoring with advanced intrusion detection systems.
  • Regular security audits by independent third parties to identify and address vulnerabilities.
  • Two-factor authentication (2FA) is available for all user accounts as an additional security layer.
