Know-Your-Customer (KYC) checks are an essential component of modern financial regulations aimed at preventing money laundering and terrorism financing. As a leading Indonesian cryptocurrency exchange, Indodax has implemented stringent KYC procedures to comply with these regulations and ensure the safety of its users.
Indodax KYC involves verifying the identity of users by collecting personal information, proof of identity, and proof of address. This process helps Indodax mitigate risks associated with illicit activities and maintain a compliant platform.
At Indodax, there are three levels of KYC verification:
Level 1: Basic verification requires users to provide an email address, phone number, and set up a two-factor authentication (2FA).
Level 2: Intermediate verification involves submitting a copy of a government-issued identity card (e.g., passport, national ID card).
Level 3: Advanced verification requires additional documents, such as proof of address (e.g., utility bill, bank statement) and a selfie with the identity card.
KYC is crucial to the integrity of any financial system, including cryptocurrency exchanges. Here's why:

During a market surge, "Alice" attempted to withdraw a large amount of funds from her Indodax account but was met with a "KYC Not Verified" error. Realizing she had forgotten to complete KYC, Alice missed out on potential profits due to the time it took to verify her account.
