What Do I Need To Verify My Identity?
The path to a more secure and trustworthy Rem experience begins with verifying your identity. We understand you might have questions about the process, so let’s dive into what you'll need.
Why is identity verification important?
Verifying your identity is a crucial step to ensure the security and transparency of all transactions on Rem. By doing this, we create a community of trust, reduce fraudulent activities, and remain compliant with global financial standards.
So, what will you need?
Without diving into the nitty-gritty of the entire process, here's a brief overview of what you might need for a smooth verification journey:
- Proof of Identity: A government-issued identification document such as a passport, driver's license, or national ID card. For Ghanaians, we recommend your ECOWAS card, and for Nigerians we recommend your BVN.
- Proof of Address: For a higher tier verification and lifting transaction limits, we require a recent utility bill, bank statement, or any official document that clearly displays your name and residential address.
- A Selfie: In some cases, we might ask for a clear, recent selfie to match your face with the provided identification document.
- Additional Documentation: Depending on your region or the specific nature of your transactions, additional documentation might be required. Rest assured, our team will guide you should this be the case. Our highest tire requires enhanced due diligence to lift your transaction limit even further.
Let's get started!
We've endeavoured to make this process as seamless as possible. While these steps are vital for the security and integrity of our community, we also understand the importance of user convenience. Our team is here to assist you every step of the way.
