      What checks do I need to go through?

      In order for you to become a funded trader, you’ll need to login to your dashboard and create an OGM account if you have not done so. KYC will be required during the OGM creation process. We will ask for your ID and proof of address at this stage, as well as additional document/information for verification.


      The forms of ID that we accept may vary according to your country of residence, but will usually be from the following list:

      • Passport
      • ID card
      • Driving license
      • Residence permit

      You can find a full list of accepted ID forms for your country on this link. You can learn more about how to take a photo of the acceptable IDs here. 

      Additionally, it’s important to note the following:

      • The document must be valid for at least one month from the upload date
      • The document must not be damaged, scratched, stained or torn.
      • The applicant's full name, date of birth, MRZ, and other important information must be present and legible
      • All the documents in the application must belong to the same person
