What is KYC?
KYC, or "Know Your Customer," is a legal requirement in the financial industry. It ensures that banks and other regulated companies verify who their clients are, assess risks, and confirm they’re doing business with legitimate individuals.
Why Is KYC Verification Important?
KYC helps prevent identity theft, financial fraud, money laundering, and terrorist financing. It ensures the security and integrity of the financial system by verifying identities and protecting against illegal activities.

To verify your identity, you’ll need the following:
- Government-issued photo ID (passport, driver's license, or national identity card)
- Be prepared to take a few selfies (webcam or mobile device)
That’s it! This process in Persona should take you about 5 minutes to complete. If completed successfully, your identity will be verified within 1-3 business days.
