Currently we offer support for personal cryptocurrency wallets, interest accounts and business cryptocurrency interest accounts. Personal accounts must successfully complete KYC in order for the account to be approved.
Business accounts require additional documentation during the sign-up process. Please see below for types of legal entities that we can offer business accounts to and examples of documents we accept. If the type of legal entity is not listed below, we unfortunately do not offer support for that entity type at this time.
NOTE: Documentation may vary by region, this is not an exhaustive list of all acceptable documents. Documentation must confirm the existence of the entity and be stamped or signed by the entity’s governing body. No stamp or signature is required for trust structures. Additionally, we may request additional information and documentation during the onboarding process.
