KYC Verification Guide

Written by Max

KYC (Know Your Customer) is an identity check required by financial regulations. Completing it unlocks the card, cash withdrawals, and full transaction limits.


What you need

  • ✅ A valid government-issued ID — passport, national ID card, or driver's license

  • ✅ The name on the document must match the name on your Plumex account exactly

  • ✅ A selfie — good lighting, no glasses, face clearly visible
