Verification, also known as KYC (Know Your Customer), is a standard regulatory requirement for any licensed investment platform. Raseed checks your identity document, a liveness selfie, and your personal details against standard compliance criteria before approving your account.

What Is the Typical Verification Timeline?

Most applications clear automated checks within minutes. Manual review, when needed, takes up to 24 hours.

What Causes Verification Delays?

One of the most common causes of delay is a blurry, cropped, or poorly lit ID photo.

  • Blurry or cropped ID images: The image must be fully readable, well-lit, and show the entire document.

  • Mismatched personal details: Your name, date of birth, and address must exactly match your ID document.

  • Expired identity documents: Ensure your national ID, Iqama, or passport is currently valid before submitting.

  • Incomplete liveness check: Follow the on-screen instructions fully during the selfie verification step.

Tip: Take your ID photo in good natural light against a plain background, with all four corners of the document clearly visible, to avoid the most common cause of delay.
