1: Go to Account Security

  
Log in to your account, click the profile icon in the top right corner and select Account Security.
  
  
 

2: Start KYC Verification

  
On the Account Security page, click Unverified button on the right side of KYC Verification to begin the KYC process.
  
  
 

3: Choose Your Country or Region

   
On the identity verification page, click the “Country or Region” dropdown menu and select your country or region.
  
Please ensure your country/region is selected correctly. The system will automatically show supported document types and withdrawal limits.
  
  
  
4: Select Document Type and Start Verification
 
Click “Verify Now” next to “Standard Verification” to begin the verification process.
  
Verification Type Overview:
  • Standard Verification: Requires personal info, ID/passport, and facial recognition. Suitable for most users.
  • Advanced Verification: Requires proof of address. Recommended for high-volume traders.
   
  

  
5: Select a Document Type

   
Please upload one of the following documents depending on your nationality:
  • ID Card
  • Passport
  • Driver's Lisence
  • Permanent Residence Permit
  • Domestic Passport (for specific regions)
  
  

  
6: Upload Document Photos

  
Follow the on-screen instructions to capture and upload clear photos of your document. Please ensure that:
  • All information is clearly visible
  • There is no obstruction or glare
Note: For passports, only the page with personal information is required.
  
📌 If the system cannot access your camera, please enable camera permissions in your browser settings.
  
  
  
7: Complete Facial Recognition
  
After uploading your documents, please follow the on-screen instructions to activate your camera and complete facial recognition to verify your identity matches the submitted documents. 
  
📱 Tip: If you are using a computer, you may also click “Continue on your phone” at the bottom of the page to switch to your phone for facial recognition.
    
  
  
👉 Scan the QR code on the page or copy the link to your mobile browser to continue the KYC verification process.
