Coming Soon: Enhanced KYC Verification
As a registered financial service provider, it’s our responsibility to keep this platform regulatory compliant. That means due diligence on all Stronghold users.
As of May 31, 2018 all new Stronghold accounts will be required to complete an enhanced KYC account verification process.
For existing users there will be a grace period, giving ample time to complete the process and avoid any breaks in trading.
What Is KYC?
KYC is the process of obtaining identifying information about the customers of a service.
The acronym stands for “Know Your Customer,” and it’s required to comply with government regulation and status as a safe and reputable trading platform. Submitted information includes things like proof of identity, home address, and full legal name.
Along with AML (anti-money laundering) laws, KYC prevents financial institutions like Stronghold from being used, intentionally or unintentionally, for criminal activities.
Stronghold’s KYC Verification Process
On May 31st we’ll send an email announcement with details on how to complete the verification process.
Please make sure you’re getting our emails.
Reach out to the Stronghold happiness team if you have any questions — happiness@stronghold.co.
