Alternatively, you have the option of making a prepayment. Note that in some cases, the prepayment option may not be available for security purposes. Find out more.
The reason we require verification is to ensure that no one misuses your identity and that you are protected against fraud or identity theft. At the same time, we can guarantee you a trustworthy service and ensure that your data remains secure. After you receive the email asking you to verify your account, you have 7 days to complete it.
If you have already selected identity verification with Stripe, you can still switch to prepayment afterwards. To do so, click on the link in the verification email again, select Back and then click Prepayment. Note that it is currently not possible to switch from prepayment to identity verification.
Stripe captures images of the front and back of your official identity document and verifies their authenticity. Then, it takes photos of your face and compares them with the ID to ensure that the document belongs to you. The system then checks whether the information about your name, date of birth and ID number is correct.
