- Any copy of a document that verifies your proof of residence not older than 6 months, which should be identical to the Client’s name and address as registered with the Company
- Copies of the card used to deposit
The Client can scan or take a clear photo of the documents with legible texts, while all corners and sides are visible. The Client must provide the documents only in the format of .jpeg, .png, or PDF without password protection.
All documents can be submitted through email (services@fundiza.com), or through uploading on the Website. Verification process will only be conducted after the Client’s initial deposit of 250 USD.

The Client agrees that this document must be signed immediately upon receipt.
The Company upholds the security of documentation at highest priority and would treat all documents received with utmost respect and confidentiality. All records that the Company acquires are protected with prominent encryption in every step of the verification process.
