Identity verification

Runs through Noah, powered by Sumsub. Usually takes a few minutes.

What you need:

A government-issued photo ID. A short video selfie for liveness. Proof of address: utility bill, bank statement, or similar.

Higher allocation levels may require additional documents. The platform tells you what is needed before you proceed.

Why Noah and Sumsub:

Noah is a regulated financial infrastructure provider (licensed in the US, Canada, and the EU) handling virtual fiat accounts and identity verification for the platform.

Sumsub is used by 4,000+ financial institutions. If you have previously verified through any Sumsub-powered service, your verification can be reused with consent. That is what makes onboarding minutes, not days.

Fresh sanctions and PEP screening still runs at onboarding. That part is never skipped.

What we collect and why:

The verification collects what Noah's regulated entities need to onboard you as a counterparty for institutional custody and payment rails. MakeBanc does not run a separate KYC layer. We receive a verification status from Noah, not your underlying documents.

Your KYC documents are held by Noah under its regulatory obligations.

Manual review:

Most cases clear automatically. If yours is flagged (unusual documents, low image quality, screening match), expect a delay. Usually resolved within a business day. The platform shows your verification status at all times.

Unsupported jurisdictions:

The platform tells you during KYC if your country is unsupported. Better to find out now than after completing other steps.

Supported countries depend on Noah's regulatory perimeter and sanctions considerations. The list changes over time; see Noah's coverage documentation.

What this is and is not:

Identity verification is mandatory and external. Completing it satisfies the onboarding requirements of the regulated entities the platform connects to. It does not satisfy compliance obligations under your own jurisdiction's laws. That remains your responsibility.

For EU/EEA users: you have specific rights over your KYC data (access, correction, deletion). Contact Noah for data subject requests.
