KYC Verification

This document outlines the Know Your Customer (KYC) verification process, which is essential for ensuring the security and compliance of your account on the AI Innovation Platform (AIIP). When you initiate the KYC process, you will be securely redirected to Stripe's verification page to complete the necessary steps. This guide will walk you through each stage, from agreeing to the terms to the final confirmation and access to your tenant dashboard.

Complete KYC Verification and Payment via Stripe

When you're redirected from the AIIP to Stripe's secure verification page, you see two choices:

• You can agree and continue with the identity verification process.
• Or, you can decline and go back to the AIIP. (You should know that declining might mean you can't use some features.)

Device Selection

1. After agreeing to proceed, the user is prompted to choose how to complete the verification.

2. The user can select one of the following options to proceed with verification, or choose to go Back to the previous screen:

   • Continue on your mobile device by scanning a QR code.
   • Receive a link via email to complete verification later.
   • Receive a link via text message to complete verification later.
   • Continue on this device to proceed with verification immediately.

2. The user can confirm readiness by selecting I'm ready.

Scanning the Front of the ID

1. The user is asked to hold the front of their ID within the frame shown on screen.
