KYC Verification Process

At Sway Funded, security and compliance are top priorities. To access your funded account after completing both the Assessment and Confirmation phases, you'll need to complete the KYC (Know Your Customer) verification process.

Nigerian clients — please refer to the dedicated KYC guide for Nigeria for region-specific steps.

Challenge Types & KYC Timing

You can purchase and begin any challenge without completing KYC. However, KYC is mandatory to receive a funded account after successfully passing all required phases.

Keep in mind that each challenge type (Rapid, Regular, No Consistency) has its own structure. Be sure to choose the one that fits your trading style.

How to Complete KYC Verification

Once eligible for funding, follow the steps below to complete the KYC process:

1. Device Selection

You’ll be asked whether you want to continue on your current device or switch to your phone. The process is mobile-friendly and works smoothly on most devices.

2. Select Your Country

Choose your country of residence from the dropdown list provided

3. Upload Proof of Identity

Submit one of the following government-issued photo IDs:

  • Passport
  • Driver’s License
  • National ID Card (front and back)

Make sure your document clearly shows your full name, photo, date of birth, and a valid expiry date.

4. Liveness Selfie

You'll be prompted to take a quick selfie to verify you're a real human and match the ID submitted. Follow the on-screen prompts closely for the best results.

5. Provide Residential Address

Enter your current home address accurately. This helps avoid delays in the verification process.

6. Phone Number Verification
  • Enter your phone number
  • You’ll receive a verification code via SMS
  • Input the code to confirm your number
