CHECKS WITH A PURPOSE

A clearer process.
At every step.

Eligibility depends on more than a currency symbol. Country, account type, payment corridor, payer information, and destination requirements can all affect availability.

A payment or payout may be subject to review or require additional information. Access to one option does not guarantee access to every currency, rail, asset, network, or corridor.

LOOK AFTER YOUR ACCOUNT

Small habits.
Meaningful protection.

01

Keep secrets private

Do not share passwords, authentication codes, wallet private keys, or seed phrases with anyone.

02

Check before sending

Review the receiving instructions, recipient information, asset, and network carefully before using a route.

03

Report a concern

Contact the security address for a suspected security issue. Share safe, relevant details without account secrets.
