Paxful's new global ID verification process

In a move towards a more regulated platform and in efforts to combat fraud while protecting our honest customers, Paxful has implemented a global verification process that requires users around the world who reach an equivalent of $1,500 in trade volume or account activity to verify their accounts through ID verification.

March 19, 2019 — In addition, users who reach $10,000 in trade volume or account activity must provide ID verification as well as address verification. Furthermore, those who reach higher trade volumes or engage in specific account activity may undergo additional due diligence and account review.

During this process, some user accounts may have been affected which has caused concern from users and the media about our legitimacy. Rest assured that the measures Paxful has taken are in efforts to protect our users and all legitimate accounts will be eligible to resume trading shortly. We thank our customers for alerting us to this issue. We humbly ask for your patience while we verify all legitimate accounts and apologize for any inconvenience caused. We are all hands on deck to resolve this as speedily as possible. Paxful’s mission is and will always be to provide working people a simple, fair, and secure platform for trading the value of their work and keep our honest customers safe.

Paxful is a highly rated online bitcoin marketplace. Paxful often gets plaudits for its ease of use and responsive dedicated support which can be confirmed from the reviews and testimonials of our users.

Clients will be updated via email on the process and can contact Paxful at [email protected] with any additional concerns.
