UBO KYC

Business verification happens in two tiers. Tier 1 verifies the people. Tier 2 verifies the company. They unlock different things, and you can trade crypto between them.
Not been invited yet? Owners are declared by whoever set the account up — see KYB Landing.

Tier 1 — verifying the people

Every declared owner verifies their own identity: profile details, address, then a selfie matched against a government ID. The controlling owner also creates a passkey and sets up a recovery method. Once the controlling owner finishes, the crypto wallet goes live — “Your crypto wallet is live”“Send, receive and swap across major networks.” At this point you can hold, send, receive and swap crypto. You cannot yet move between crypto and cash. See Tier 1.

Tier 2 — verifying the company

Five steps of company detail plus four documents. This is what regulators require before a business can touch fiat, and the copy is explicit about why: “We need these to verify your business with regulators.” Completing it unlocks “Unlock currency-enabled transactions”“Convert from EUR, GBP, NGN and more to crypto and back, then cash out to a local bank account.” See Tier 2.

Which one do I need?

You don’t have to do them back to back. Tier 1 gets a working wallet quickly, and Tier 2 can follow when you’ve gathered your incorporation documents — the home screen keeps a “Continue where you left off” card so you can pick it up later.

Who does what

A delegate can fill in company details and upload documents, but cannot verify identity on anyone’s behalf. Tier 1 always needs the actual owners.
