Verified, Secure, and Compliant: Our Approach to KYC and AML

We take a firm and uncompromising stance against money laundering, terrorist financing, and all forms of illegal financial activity. Our platform operates in full accordance with internationally recognised Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Counter-Terrorist Financing (CTF) standards, applying robust internal regulations and compliance programmes designed to protect both our users and the broader financial system.

Where there are reasonable grounds to suspect that funds deposited on our platform are connected to money laundering, terrorist financing, or any other criminal activity, we are legally obligated to report such activity to the relevant state authorities and to take all necessary measures as stipulated by our AML Policy — including the blocking of associated funds.

What Money Laundering Means and Why We Fight It

Money laundering is the process of disguising funds obtained through criminal activity to make them appear legitimate. This includes concealing the true origin, ownership, or movement of illegally acquired assets, as well as converting or transferring such assets in ways designed to obscure their illicit source — even when the underlying crimes were committed in another jurisdiction.

The consequences reach far beyond individual offences. Money laundering empowers organised crime, fuels terrorism, and undermines legitimate economies worldwide. For this reason, we actively cooperate with government bodies and international organisations in the ongoing effort to detect and prevent it.

Your Obligations as a Registered User

By creating an account on our platform, you enter into a binding agreement to uphold the following commitments:

• You agree to comply fully with all applicable anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing laws and regulations, including the provisions of our AML Policy.
• You confirm that the funds you use to deposit into your account — whether past, present, or future — have not been obtained from any illegal source and are not connected in any way to money laundering, fraud, or other prohibited activity.
• You agree to promptly provide any information or documentation we request in order to fulfil our compliance obligations under applicable AML legislation.

Failure to meet these obligations may result in account suspension, transaction refusal, or the reporting of your activity to the relevant authorities.

How We Monitor and Manage Risk

We maintain comprehensive records of all user identification documents and transaction histories, and actively monitor account activity for patterns that may indicate suspicious behaviour or elevated financial risk.

We reserve the right to refuse, delay, or reverse any transaction if we have reasonable grounds to believe it is connected to money laundering or criminal activity. In accordance with international legislation, we are not obligated to notify a user that their activity has been flagged or reported to the relevant authorities — a principle known as "tipping off" prevention, which exists to protect the integrity of ongoing investigations.

Risk assessments are conducted on both an initial and ongoing basis, with the level of scrutiny applied proportionate to the risk profile of each individual user.

Know Your Customer: The Verification Process

Our Know Your Customer (KYC) process is a mandatory regulatory requirement. It exists to confirm the identity of our users, protect against fraud, and ensure that our platform is not misused for illegal purposes. The verification process is straightforward, and we request only the minimum information necessary.

Every user is required to provide the following core identifying details:

• Full legal name
• Residential or registration address
• Source of the funds being deposited into the account

To verify the authenticity of this information, we may request the following supporting documents at any stage:

• Proof of identity — a valid government-issued passport or national identity card, and copies of any payment cards used on the platform
• Proof of address — a recent utility bill or equivalent document issued within the last three months
• Proof of payment method — a recent bank or credit/debit card statement related to the payment method used, issued within the last six months

All documents submitted are stored securely and handled in strict accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable data protection legislation. Your identity will also be screened against official watchlists and terrorist suspect databases maintained by authorised government and independent agencies.

A Shared Responsibility

Combating financial crime is a collective effort that requires cooperation between platforms, regulators, financial institutions, and users alike. By engaging with our platform honestly and transparently, you contribute to a safer and more lawful environment for everyone — and we remain committed to upholding the highest standards of compliance in return.
