Why we don't require KYC
No ID uploads, no selfies, no waiting on a verification queue. Here's how that's possible, and what it means for you.
Most services that touch crypto or card payments ask for a photo ID, a selfie, and sometimes a proof-of-address document before you can do anything. We don’t ask for any of it. That’s a deliberate design choice, not an oversight.
What KYC is normally for
Know Your Customer checks exist so a platform can tie every account to a real-world identity — useful for a custodial exchange holding your funds long-term, or a bank opening an account for you. It comes at a cost: your documents sit on someone else’s servers, and onboarding takes longer.
Why we don’t need it
We don’t hold custody of your money and we don’t operate accounts in the traditional sense. Each order is a single transaction: your card is charged, and the crypto or cash goes straight to a wallet or bank account you control. There’s no balance of yours sitting with us beyond your wallet, which only ever holds enough to cover service fees.
Anonymity here means no identity documents are collected or stored — it doesn’t mean transactions are untraceable. Card charges and blockchain transfers both leave a normal paper trail on their own rails.
What this means in practice
- Signing up takes an email address and nothing else.
- There’s no verification queue to wait in — orders aren’t held pending a manual identity review.
- Your card issuer and your bank still see the transaction on their end, the same as any other charge.
The trade-off, stated plainly
No KYC means faster orders and less personal data floating around, not the ability to hide a transaction from your own bank or card issuer. If you’re relying on this for something your bank would flag anyway, it won’t help — the anonymity is about what we collect, not about erasing the transaction elsewhere.
