Everything that potential Whitepay clients should know about the verification procedure for both legal and physical persons.

As companies are required to adhere to regulations such as Anti-Money Laundering and Countering the Financing of Terrorism, having a thorough grasp of the KYB protocol becomes extremely crucial.

What is KYB?

KYB, short for Know Your Business, is a verification standard designed to confirm the legal status of a client company and its compliance with Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Combating the Financing of Terrorism (CFT) regulations. By adhering to KYB, business owners safeguard their interests and minimize interactions with potentially dubious shell companies.

Who requires KYB?

At Whitepay, we uphold strict compliance with current legislation. This makes the KYB procedure mandatory for all our partners who use:

  • Whitepay API to accept online cryptocurrency payments.
  • Third-party services. 

Please note that the documents needed for business verification might undergo changes or additions based on regulatory updates and Whitepay's internal policies.

If you want to discover more about the KYB process, please contact us via Telegram or Messenger. You can also reach out to us through email: partnerships@whitepay.com.
