Verification & Security

What type of documents can be used for the verification?

The only documents accepted for the verification are a passport or a national ID card. Other documents, such as driver’s license, residence permit, etc., are not accepted and will be declined.

The document must be valid, not tampered with, and not covered with any stickers. Your picture, name, surname, and other information on the document must be clear and readable.

          My document is valid, but my verification was declined. Why?

          Make sure that you are taking a real-time photo (not scanned or opened on a computer/phone) of your passport or a national ID card, as these are the only documents accepted for identification.

          A new identification session is unavailable without our involvement if verification is declined. Therefore if your identification was rejected, please contact our Client Support.
