Going live

From test keys to live keys

Test keys work the moment you sign up. Live keys move real money and reach real people, so we verify every account first. Here is exactly what we need and how long it takes.

Our review target

2 days

From the moment your documents are complete to our decision, by email.

Measured over the last 30 days

We publish the measured median once at least five reviews are complete in the window, so the figure means something.

The steps

  1. 1

    Create a workspace and confirm your email

    Personal or organization. Test keys work at once.

  2. 2

    Turn on two-factor authentication

    Email codes or an authenticator app; it protects every live account.

  3. 3

    Upload your documents

    In Settings > Verification. Personal accounts need two documents, organizations four.

  4. 4

    Submit for review

    Our team checks the documents against the account details.

  5. 5

    Create live keys

    Once approved you get an email, create live keys on the API Keys page and fund your wallet. Same endpoints, real results.
