Welcome to UniPayment! To ensure the security of your account and comply with regulatory requirements, your business needs to complete the KYC (Know Your Customer) verification process. We use the services provided by Sumsub for certification to ensure the security of the submitted materials and compliance with European Union regulations, as well as Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Counter-Terrorist Financing (CFT) requirements. Here is a simple guide to assist you in successfully completing business verification.
Process Overview
The KYC verification for business users includes the following parts:
1. Submission of Business Materials: You are required to provide basic information and relevant documents for your business.
2. Personal KYC Verification: After receiving the submission of business materials, UniPayment will notify the beneficiary to undergo personal KYC verification.
3. Business Verification: Business verification will proceed after the personal verification is passed.
Note: The beneficiary refers to an individual who has significant control or ownership interests in the business.
