KYC guide
Verification protects you and every other investor on the platform. Have these ready and most people finish in one sitting.
Individual investors
Government photo ID
NIN slip, international passport, driver's licence or permanent voter's card. Colour image, all four corners visible, not expired.
Bank Verification Number (BVN)
Your 11-digit BVN, used to confirm the name on your ID matches the bank account you fund and withdraw with.
Proof of address
Utility bill, bank statement or tenancy agreement dated within the last three months showing your name and address.
Source of funds
A short declaration of where the money comes from — salary, business income, sale of an asset, inheritance — with supporting evidence for larger tickets.
Live selfie check
A quick liveness capture in the app, matched against your ID photo. It takes under a minute.
Companies, trusts and institutions
- Certificate of incorporation and CAC status report
- Memorandum and articles of association
- Board or partnership resolution authorising the investment
- ID and proof of address for every director and for any beneficial owner holding 5% or more
- Corporate bank account details in the entity's own name
- Audited accounts or management accounts where available
Institutional tickets are handled by our team directly — start at institutional intake.
What happens after you submit
- Automated checks confirm your ID and BVN details match.
- Screening against sanctions, politically-exposed-person and adverse-media lists. A hit does not automatically decline you; it triggers a human review.
- Source-of-funds review, proportionate to the amount you intend to invest.
- You are notified by email. Most straightforward cases clear the same working day; cases needing manual review take a few days.
Common reasons verification fails
- Blurred, cropped or glare-covered document photos.
- Name spelled differently on your ID, BVN and bank account.
- Proof of address older than three months, or in someone else's name.
- Funding from an account that is not your own.
Your data
We collect only what verification requires, store it encrypted, and share it only with the verification and payment partners that perform these checks under written agreement. We do not sell personal data. See our privacy policy and the Trust Center. Records tied to financial activity are retained for the period Nigerian law requires, even after an account closes.
