What is KYC?
KYC means “know your customer.” KYC guidelines for financial services require that professionals make an effort to verify the identity, suitability and risks involved, in order to minimize the risk to the respective account.
Why is KYC required?
KYC is necessary to improve security compliance for all traders.
Does my company need to register for KYC?
If your company wants to withdraw more than 2 BTC a day, you’ll need to complete KYC verification.
Please refer to the following withdrawal limits for each KYC level:
KYC Level |
Lv.0 (No verification required) |

Your company may receive a KYC verification request from Bybit.
