What this means in practice

If your account gets flagged, expect to provide government photo ID at minimum, sometimes a selfie holding the ID, and occasionally a proof of address or a source-of-funds explanation for larger balances. Have these ready before you deposit large amounts, not after you try to withdraw.

See our general guide on what to expect from KYC across crypto operators, or check how withdrawals performed in our testing.
