Which features may be restricted if verification is not completed?

Unverified accounts may have limited access to deposits, and trading is restricted until verification is finalised. These restrictions are not arbitrary limitations but are mandated by regulatory frameworks that require regulated entities to confirm the identity of the users before granting access to financial services. The specific features affected and the degree of restriction depend on the applicable regulations in the user's jurisdiction and the entity's compliance policies.

Deposit functionality may be limited for unverified accounts. For example, the entity may allow an initial deposit up to a certain threshold to facilitate account setup, but restrict further deposits until identity verification is completed.

Trading functions may also be restricted to varying degrees. Regulated entities, such as Libertex, typically do not allow users to engage in live trading until the verification process has been fully completed. It is important to understand that these restrictions are designed to protect users. They ensure that accounts handling real money and engaging in financial transactions have been properly identified, reducing the risk of fraud, unauthorised access, and regulatory non-compliance. The most effective way to avoid any disruption to trading activity is to complete the verification process as early as possible, ideally, during the initial registration stage. Users who submit clear, accurate documentation promptly are typically approved for verification quickly, ensuring seamless, unrestricted access to all platform features from the very beginning of their trading experience.
