Why do I need verification and how long does it take?
We are a financial institution, and that’s why we need to know who is using our services. So, when you open an account with us, we are required to verify your identity.
We strive to provide the fastest possible verification. However, sometimes we have to do extra checks, which can take some time (at least 48 hours).
As soon as your documents are verified, we will notify you of the results. You can also track the progress and status of your document verification on our website or in our mobile app.
How does verification affect my trading account?
Trading, deposits or withdrawals may be limited until the account is verified, depending on your region.
When requested, please follow the verification steps to ensure that your account is fully verified according to the specific rules in your area to avoid possible restrictions and limits.
