What You Need for KYC Verification

Know Your Customer (KYC) verification is required before your first withdrawal or supplier payment, and it exists to keep the whole corridor safe for everyone using it. Here's what to expect.

For individuals

• A valid government-issued ID
• Your BVN or national ID number, depending on your country
• A phone number and email address that match your account

For businesses

• Your registered company name and registration number
• Proof of business ownership or directorship
• The same individual-level details above for the account's primary contact

Why we ask

Cross-border payments move real money across real regulatory borders. Verifying who's behind every account is what allows us to keep working with licensed banking and exchange partners in every market we serve — it's not optional, and it protects your funds as much as it protects the platform.

How long it takes

Most submissions are reviewed quickly once all the required details are in. You can check your verification status at any time from your dashboard, and you're welcome to explore the rest of JesDanPay while it's in progress — you'll just need it approved before your first payout goes out.
