KYC Verification Process / Info

KYC Screening / Background Check
​
Before we issue any virtually funded account or any type of payout, we require that you verify your ID and pass our KYC Screening/Background Check.

Most applicants will have no issue with the screening and will be verified in as little as 5 minutes.

  • You will be asked to submit a valid form of ID. This could be a driver’s license, passport, ID card, or residence permit.

  • You will also be asked to submit a valid proof of address issued within the last 90 days. This could be a bank statement, utility bill, or phone bill.

  • You will then be required to take a selfie so that we can match your face to that on your submitted ID

    ​KYC/Verification for Instant Funding Accounts

    To ensure compliance and security, all traders opting for Instant Funding Accounts are required to complete the following steps before they can begin trading:
    ​

    Funding Trading Agreement

    • Traders must carefully review and sign the Funding Trading Agreement as part of the onboarding process. This agreement outlines the terms and conditions for trading with an instant-funded account, ensuring transparency and mutual understanding.
      ​

    KYC Process

    • Traders must complete the Know Your Customer (KYC) verification process to confirm their identity.

    • Required documents typically include:

      • A government-issued photo ID (e.g., passport, driver’s license, or national ID).

      • Proof of address (e.g., utility bill, bank statement, or lease agreement dated within the last 3 months).
        ​

    Why Is This Required?

    These measures are implemented to:

    • Comply with regulatory requirements.

    • Ensure a secure trading environment for all participants.

    • Prevent fraud and unauthorized access to trading accounts.

    Note: Failure to complete the KYC process or sign the Funding Trading Agreement will delay access to your instant-funded account. Please ensure these steps are finalized promptly after account purchase.
    ​
    Once you have completed the KYC/AML screening and are verified, you will receive an agreement sent to you within 48 – 72 business hours. Once the agreement has been signed, you will then receive your virtually funded account the upcoming Monday, Wednesday, or Friday.

    If you have any issues with your KYC Screening / Background Check, please contact our live support and we will assist you in potentially getting you verified if possible. Note that if you are unable to pass the screening, you will not be able to receive the funded account details and will receive a refund to your challenge.
