Before you can withdraw funds from your wallet, Mangopay — our licensed payment partner — needs to verify your identity and business. This is required by European financial regulations to prevent money laundering and fraud.
This is a one-time process. Once completed, you won't need to repeat it unless your documents expire or your verification status changes.
What documents you'll need
You'll need to provide two types of documents: an identity document and a business document.
Identity document
A government-issued photo ID for the legal representative. Accepted documents:
Passport
National ID card
Driving licence
Residence permit
Your identity document must:
Match the name entered during registration
Include date of birth (exact match — typos not accepted)
Show a unique ID number
Not be expired
Be provided front and back if there is information on both sides
Be a colour copy
Be issued by the country where you are a citizen or resident
Belong to someone who is at least 18 years old
Business document
A government-issued document proving your business is registered and valid. Accepted documents vary by country — see the country-specific requirements below.
File requirements for all uploads
High resolution, clear, and fully visible — not cropped or angled
Scanned image or photo taken with a mobile camera
Maximum 7MB per file, minimum 32KB for ID documents
Accepted formats: PDF, JPEG, JPG, PNG
Not altered or edited
Colour copies only
If your document is not in English, French, German, Dutch, Spanish, Italian, or Portuguese, provide an official translation into English or French.
