Frequently Asked Questions of Verification in Binomo


General Questions


What is verification? Why do I need it?

Verification is a confirmation of your identity and means of payment (for example, bank cards). User verification is required by financial market regulators and payment service providers. This is a standard procedure all trading platforms use. Every Binomo trader will be asked to go through verification at some point. After that, funds withdrawals will be restricted, until the trader has been verified.

Apart from being a law-enforced requirement, verification also helps protect your funds. Should the account be stolen, verified users have a chance to get their funds back.

You can find full information regarding user verification in the Client Agreement, paragraphs 4 and 5.


When will I be able to withdraw funds?

You can withdraw right after verification has been completed. The verification process usually takes less than 10 minutes. The withdrawal request will be processed by Binomo within 3 business days. The exact date and time youll receive the funds depends on the payment service provider.
 

How long does verification take?

Verifying your account normally takes us less than 10 minutes.

There are few rare cases when the documents cannot be verified automatically, and we check them by hand. In this situation, the verification period may be extended for up to 7 business days.
You can make deposits and trade while waiting, but you won’t be able to withdraw funds until the verification has been completed.


How do I pass verification?

After you’ve received a verification request to successfully pass verification you’ll need:
  • Photo of your passport, ID card, or driver’s license, both front and back sides (If the document is double-sided). Types of documents may vary by country, check the full documents list.
  • Photos of the bank cards you used to deposit (front side only).
  • Photo of a bank statement (for non-personalized cards only).

Note. Make sure the documents will be valid for at least one month from the upload date (for residents of Indonesia and Brazil validity is irrelevant). Your full name, numbers, dates, and all corners of your document must be visible. We accept documents in the following formats: jpg, png, pdf.

Once all your documents are ready, there are 4 steps to complete:


1) Identity verification.

To pass this stage, you’ll have to:
  • Upload photos of your identity document, front and back sides.

Note. Refer to How do I verify my identity? for detailed instruction.

2) Payment method verification.

If you used bank cards to deposit or withdraw funds, we will ask you to verify them. To do this, you’ll have to:
  • upload a photo of the bank card you used to deposit, front side only;
  • upload a photo of a bank statement (for non-personalized cards only).

Note. For detailed instructions, refer to How to verify a bank card? and How to verify a non-personalized bank card? articles.

3) Wait until weve checked your documents, it usually takes us less than 10 minutes.

4) Upon completion, youll get a confirmation email and a pop-up notification and be able to withdraw funds. Thats it, youre a verified Binomo trader!


Do I need to verify on registering?

Theres no requirement to verify on registering, you’ll only need to confirm your email. Verification is automatic and usually requested when you withdraw funds from your Binomo account. Once verification has been requested, you’ll get a pop-up notification, and the “Verification” item will appear on the menu.
 

Can I trade without verification?

You are free to deposit, trade, and withdraw funds until verification has been requested. Verification is usually initiated when you withdraw funds from your account. Once you’ve received a pop-up notification asking you to verify the account, withdrawal will be restricted, but you are free to trade. Pass verification to be able to withdraw again.  

The good news is, it usually takes us less than 10 minutes to verify a user.

Safety and Troubleshooting


Is it safe to send you my private data?

Short answer: yes, it is. Here is what we do to ensure the security of your data.
  1. All your information is stored in an encrypted format on servers. These servers are kept at data centers compliant with TIA-942 and PCI DSS – international safety standards.
  2. The data centers are protected technically and guarded physically around the clock by specially audited security personnel.
  3. All information is transferred via a protected channel with cryptographic encryption. When you upload any personal photos, payment details, etc., the service automatically hides or blurs a part of symbols (for example, the 6 middle digits on your payment card). Even if fraudsters try to capture your information, they would only get encoded symbols that are useless without a key.
  4. Decryption keys are stored separately from the actual information, so people with criminal intent won’t get access to your private data.
We ensured that all personal details are not shared with other parties or used for someone’s purposes. You can also refer to our Privacy Policy for the full description of the way we handle all private data


Why have I been asked to pass verification again?

You may be asked to verify again after youve used a new payment method to deposit. According to law, every payment method you use on the Binomo trading platform must be verified. This applies both to deposit and withdrawal.

Note. Sticking with the payment methods you’ve already used and verified will save you from having to go through verification again.

We also ask for re-verification if the verified documents are about to expire.

In rare cases, we can ask you to re-verify your identity, email, or other personal data. Usually, it occurs when the policy has been changed, or as a part of the companys anti-fraud activities.


Why have my documents been rejected?

When your documents don’t pass verification, they get assigned with one of these statuses:
  • Try again.
  • Declined.
If you see the “Try Again” status, follow these steps to figure out the reason your document wasn’t accepted:

1.Click “Try again” on the verification page.

2. The reason your document has been rejected will be explained, like in the example below. Make sure to fix the problem and then click the “Upload new” button to upload your document again.
Frequently Asked Questions of Verification in Binomo
Note. Usually, the documents get rejected because they don’t meet all the requirements. Before re-uploading, make sure that the photo you’re sending is bright and clear, all corners of your document are visible, and your full name, numbers, and dates are easy to read.

If one of your documents got the “Declined” status, it means that the system could not read it correctly.

To resolve this issue, follow these steps:

1) Click on the document that has been declined and then click the “Contact support” button.
Frequently Asked Questions of Verification in Binomo
2) You’ll be redirected to the email client. The issue will be described in the draft. Send an email, and our support team will help you resolve the problem.
