Question 1

Stripe Identity Verification

Accepted Answer

To ensure compliance with financial regulations and protect our community, Cardpeer partners with Stripe, a trusted third-party payment processor, for identity verification. In certain cases, Stripe may require you to complete a brief verification process. This is typically triggered by the following scenarios:

Reaching a specified earnings threshold, which activates KYC (Know Your Customer) requirements.
Annual verification requirements in specific countries, particularly during tax season.
Periodic updates to Stripe's compliance policies that necessitate renewed verification.

If verification is needed, you will be notified directly via email from Cardpeer.

If You Receive a Verification Request:

Do not reply to the email. Instead, take action directly through your Cardpeer account.
Log in to your Cardpeer.com account.
Navigate to your Account Settings and go to the Payment & Identity Verification section.
Submit the required information securely through this section.
