FAQ Section

Why is KYC verification necessary?

KYC (Know Your Customer) processes help prevent fraud and comply with financial regulations while improving your trading experience with better counterparty matching.

Can I trade without completing all verifications?

Basic trading is available after LV.1 verification, but higher limits and features require completing all levels.

How often should I change my fund password?

We recommend updating your fund password every 3-6 months or immediately if you suspect any account compromise.

What if I forget my fund password?

Use the password recovery option through email/SMS verification to reset it securely.

Video verification (LV.3) is optional but provides highest account privileges and security status.
