My selfie verification check failed, now what?

If your automatic identity check fails, we will email you to ask for a few documents

Updated over 3 years ago

We may sometimes need to verify your account manually. This can happen if your selfie check fails or if we need further information to verify your identity. Don’t worry, if this happens we’ll be in touch to let you know what the next steps are.

To verify your account, we’ll ask for two separate documents - one proof of ID and one proof of address. πŸ“© Once received, this will take 2-3 working days to review.

  • One document cannot be presented as both proof ID and proof of address.

  • We only accept clear high quality phone pictures, original PDFs or a scanned copy of an original document.

  • Please make sure we can see the whole document in the image.
