S91 AML & KYC Policy
The S91 AML & KYC Policy explains the Platform’s approach to Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Know Your Customer (KYC) requirements. S91 may use identity verification, transaction monitoring and risk reviews to help protect users, identify suspicious activity and comply with applicable laws and regulations.
Purpose of the S91 AML & KYC Policy
The S91 AML & KYC Policy is designed to support a secure Platform and establish measures for identifying and responding to potentially fraudulent, illegal or suspicious financial activity.
Prevent Money Laundering
S91 applies AML-related measures intended to help prevent the Platform from being used for money laundering or other illegal financial activities.
Prevent Fraud
Identity checks, transaction monitoring and risk reviews may be used to identify activity that could indicate fraud or misuse of the Platform.
Protect S91 Users
AML and KYC measures help S91 verify users where required and respond to suspicious activity that may create security or financial risks for users or the Platform.
Comply with Applicable Requirements
The policy supports S91’s commitment to comply with applicable laws and regulations relating to AML, KYC and relevant Platform activities.
S91 Identity Verification (KYC)
S91 KYC identity verification may be required before users are permitted to access certain services, including withdrawals. The information requested may depend on the verification requirements applicable to the account.
Government-Issued Identification
S91 may request a valid government-issued identification document as part of the KYC process to verify a user’s identity.
Selfie Verification
Users may be asked to complete selfie verification as an additional identity check when required by S91.
Proof of Residential Address
S91 may request proof of residential address as supporting documentation during the verification process.
Verification of Payment Ownership
Where required, users may need to provide information or supporting documentation that allows S91 to verify ownership of the payment method associated with Platform transactions.
Incomplete KYC Verification
Users who do not complete requested identity verification may have limited access to certain S91 features or services.
Transaction Monitoring
S91 may monitor certain Platform transactions and account activities to identify unusual patterns and potentially suspicious or fraudulent behaviour.
Deposits and Withdrawals
S91 may monitor deposits and withdrawals as part of its transaction review and Platform security processes.
Buyback Transactions
Buyback transactions may be reviewed to identify transaction behaviour that requires additional verification or risk assessment.
Reward Claims
S91 may monitor reward claims as part of its measures for detecting suspicious or abusive Platform activity.
Unusual Transaction Patterns
Transaction patterns that appear unusual may be identified for further review. S91 may perform additional checks when activity requires further assessment.
Multiple Account Activities
S91 may monitor multiple account activities as part of its efforts to detect potential fraud, misuse or other suspicious behaviour.
Risk Review and Account Measures
When S91 detects suspicious activity, the Platform may conduct a risk review and apply measures considered necessary to protect users and Platform operations.
Request Additional Supporting Documents
S91 may request additional supporting documents when existing account or transaction information is insufficient to complete a risk review.
Delay Transaction Processing
Transaction processing may be delayed while S91 performs additional verification or reviews activity that has been identified as potentially suspicious.
Reject Withdrawals
S91 may reject a withdrawal when a risk review identifies concerns requiring the transaction not to proceed.
Temporarily Freeze Accounts
An account may be temporarily frozen when necessary while suspicious activity or relevant account information is being reviewed.
Suspend Platform Access
S91 may suspend access to the Platform when required as part of its security and risk-management measures.
Record Retention
S91 may retain relevant transaction records and identity verification documents for periods required by applicable laws or legitimate business purposes.
Transaction Records
Records associated with Platform transactions may be retained when necessary to support compliance, security reviews and legitimate business requirements.
Verification Documents
Documents collected during identity verification may also be retained for as long as required by applicable laws or legitimate business purposes.
Regulatory Compliance
S91 reserves the right to cooperate with regulatory authorities when required by law and may take action against accounts involved in fraudulent, illegal or money laundering activities.
Cooperation with Regulatory Authorities
Where legally required, S91 may cooperate with relevant regulatory authorities in connection with compliance matters and Platform activities.
Fraudulent or Illegal Activity
Users found engaging in fraudulent, illegal or money laundering activities may have their S91 accounts suspended or permanently terminated.
User Responsibility
Users should provide accurate information when requested for verification and use S91 only for legitimate activities. Failure to comply with applicable Platform requirements may result in restrictions or other account measures.
AML & KYC Policy Updates
S91 may update its AML & KYC Policy from time to time. Users should refer to the latest version published on the Platform for the current policy.
