What do I need identity verification for?
VerificationLast reviewed Oct 8, 2026
Identity verification is needed to:
- create or relist listings,
- withdraw money, for everyone,
- sell stock,
- get API keys for stock.
You do not need it to buy. Buying needs a verified email address. You also don't need it to add funds.
Verified members get a green ID Verified label next to their name. It only shows that the member completed verification.
