How do I verify my business (KYB) for Halocard?
To verify your Halocard Business account, you'll be asked to complete business verification (KYB) as required by Visa and our issuing bank.
The check takes 5 - 10 minutes to complete and a decision will be made within 24 - 72 hours.
All information is securely processed by our identity verification partner, Sumsub, and removed from Halocard's servers immediately after submission.
Please ensure your legal entity is registered in an eligible country or US state before you begin. See: Which countries does Halocard business support?
