What is KYC in Nebeus?

KYC stands for "Know Your Customer." In Nebeus, KYC is a standard process used to verify the identity of its users. It is an essential step in compliance with regulatory requirements and to ensure the security and legitimacy of the platform.

When a user signs up for a Nebeus account, they are required to provide certain personal information and documentation to verify their identity. This information may include:

  1. Full legal name
  2. Date of birth
  3. Residential address
  4. Nationality
  5. Government-issued identification documents (e.g., passport, driver's license, national ID)
  6. Proof of address documents (e.g., utility bills, bank statements)

The purpose of KYC is to prevent identity theft, fraud, money laundering, and other illegal activities. It helps Nebeus ensure that its services are not used for illicit purposes and comply with the relevant anti-money laundering (AML) and counter-terrorism financing (CTF) regulations.

Once a user submits their KYC information, Nebeus' compliance team reviews and verifies the documents. After successful verification, the user gains access to the full range of Nebeus services, such as crypto-to-fiat transactions, crypto lending, and other financial services.

It is important for users to provide accurate and up-to-date information during the KYC process. Failure to complete the KYC requirements may result in limitations on account functionality or the inability to use certain Nebeus services. Additionally, users should be aware that Nebeus may periodically review and update the KYC information to maintain compliance and security standards.
