What is KYC and how to KYC on Uplift DAO

Uplift DAO is committed to creating a safe and seamless environment for investors participating in the most promising crypto projects. One essential aspect of maintaining a secure platform is implementing KYC (Know Your Customer) procedures for all users.

KYC is a standard identity verification process used on the Uplift DAO platform to assess the eligibility of investors to participate in project IDOs. This process ensures full compliance with regional regulations and protects the platform from malicious actors. By implementing KYC, Uplift DAO facilitates the growth of featured projects while adhering to legal requirements.

In partnership with Blockpass, Uplift DAO offers a fast, secure, and user-friendly KYC process. Once you’ve completed KYC, you’ll have access to participate in any future launches on our platform.

Follow the step-by-step guide below to complete your KYC process on Uplift DAO:

1. Gather required documents: Prepare a valid government-issued document, such as an ID card, driver’s license, or passport, for the verification process.
   
2. Update your Apple device: If using an Apple device, ensure you have the latest iOS version installed.
   
3. Access the KYC page: Visit https://app.uplift.io/kyc or locate the “pass the KYC” option on the homepage.
   
4. Start the process: Click the “Start” button on the KYC page and enter your email address to receive a magic link for verification.
   
5. Complete verification steps: Follow the instructions in the email, which include taking a photo of your identification, capturing a selfie, and connecting your wallet for authentication.
   
6. Switch devices if needed: You can complete the process on your phone or laptop. Just use the same email address to pick up where you left off.
   
7. Wait for KYC approval: After submitting the required information, wait for email confirmation of your successful KYC completion. Approval can take anywhere from a few minutes to a day.

Once your KYC is approved, you’re all set to embark on your IDO journey with Uplift DAO!

Important Reminder: While the KYC process only takes a few minutes to complete, we recommend not waiting until the last minute before an IDO launch. Approval of submitted documents may take 1-2 days, so plan accordingly.
