This guide will help you complete the Know Your Customer (KYC) process quickly and avoid common mistakes. Once your KYC is complete, you’ll be able to access all features on the platform.
What is KYC, and why is it required?
KYC is a standard identity verification process required under international financial regulations. It helps protect against fraud and ensures compliance with global anti-money laundering laws.
KYC verification is triggered when your payouts in a single currency exceed 200 USD, 180 EUR, or the equivalent in another currency.
If your client company has enabled automatic verification for all contractors, you will be required to complete KYC immediately after registering on the platform.
While verification is pending, you can continue to complete tasks and receive payments, but fund withdrawals will be restricted until KYC is approved.
We use KYC to:
Confirm your identity and residential address
Enable secure payments
Ensure compliance with partner banks and legal standards
Your data is safe. We only share information with banks if required to verify a transaction.
Documents required for KYC
To complete KYC, you’ll need to upload two documents:
1. Identity Verification (choose one):
Passport
National Identity Card
Residence Permit
Driver’s License
2. Proof of Residential Address (choose one):
Utility bill
Bank statement showing your full address
Tax or government-issued document confirming your address
Address verification requirements
Your address document must:
Be issued within the last six months
Clearly show:
Your full name
Your complete residential address (must match the one in your profile)
The issue date
Signature or stamp (if applicable)
Tip: A bank statement with your full address is usually the fastest and most reliable option.
Document Format
If your document is physical, please upload a high-quality photo. Make sure the entire document fits within the frame.
If your document is electronic, we recommend uploading it in PDF format to ensure proper processing by the system.
Documents Not Accepted by 4dev.com
Please do not upload:
Screenshots of documents
Mobile phone bills
Medical bills
Insurance policies
Lease agreements (however, you can provide one to your bank and upload the resulting bank statement)
Documents with handwritten notes
Documents older than six months
Documents issued in another person’s name
Additional Guidelines
Your ID and address documents may be issued in different countries, as long as your residential address is current.By law, invoices issued through the platform must display your current residential address.
You cannot use the same document (e.g., passport) to verify both identity and address.
To avoid delays, ensure that all document details match the information in your profile.
KYC for Sole Proprietorship
Note: You must complete KYC as an individual. If you registered as a sole proprietor, your details will change to those of an individual after KYC verification.
After successful verification, you can update your profile details to those of your sole proprietorship (enter your name, address, and registration number). To proceed, please contact us via online chat and provide your sole proprietorship registration certificate or another document confirming your registration. We will update your profile on the platform to reflect your sole proprietorship details.
You cannot update your profile to that of your sole proprietorship without first completing verification as an individual.
