KYC means "Know Your Client". It is a process by which banks and financial institutions obtain information about the identity of their clients. This process helps to ensure the services provided by banks and financial institutions are not misused. The KYC procedure is completed during the onboarding of new clients and is periodically updated according to the risks involved in the business relationship. The central legal basis for the Know Your Customer principle and the KYC checks and verifications in Europe and UK as well as the US are mainly the following: the 3rd EU Money Laundering Directive (Article 8); the 4th EU Money Laundering Directive; the 5th EU Money Laundering Directive; the 6th EU Money Laundering Directive; the UK Bribery Act; and the UK Modern Slavery Act.

Applicants should submit their KYC application form through the platform Dashboard and upload the requested documentation. Once our KYC Team has received the application, we will review the documentation on the Form and might request additional information from the applicant via email. Our KYC Team will also review the availability and functionality of the applicant's website by analyzing the Project on Dashboard. Once the KYC Team has completed all its checks, has validated the documentation and understands the purpose of the business relationship and the risks involved, they will Approve or Reject the KYC onboarding. If KYC has been approved, our Sales department will contact the applicant to explain the next steps of the process.

We are obliged to collect such information per the requirements of international and national legislation regulating the implementation of the Know Your Customer (KYC) principle. The KYC form is one of the methods enabling us to collect relevant information about your business activity.

It also includes those who exercise ultimate effective control over a legal person or arrangement. An ultimate beneficial owner (UBO) is always a natural person.

The legal representative is a key individual that holds the senior manager's position in the company and has the right to represent the company when opening an account in a financial institution based on the Articles of association or Business registry extract.

In some cases, the company is represented by two or more persons.

If there is a requirement for joint representation, all joint signatories must pass the identity verification through a third-party solution.

Most of the transfers are processed via INSTANT SEPA TRANSFER. For those payments, the transaction is processed pretty much immediately, and you should be able to see the funds on the account within a couple of minutes. However, some payments are processed via STANDARD DOMESTIC SEPA TRANSFERS payments, usually executed in 1 day if initiated on a business day. However, it can take up to 3 days if initiated during the weekend.

It depends on the service partner's timeframes. The money could be paid out daily or weekly.

Yes, it is possible by contacting [email protected]. However, the recommended expiration time for transactions is 48 hours. The idea behind 48 hours recommendation is that it is a usual off-hours period for banks that halt payment processing during conventional non-business hours. They do not process the payments on the weekend, so by having 48 hours expiry, we ensure that payments performed on the weekend and marked 'pending' can still be processed by the bank.

Contact [email protected] until the automatization of the process is completed. Reports can be provided daily/weekly/monthly.
