Onboarding

To start using Bird Pay, the first step is to complete the KYC (Know Your Customer) and KYB (Know Your Business) processes. These checks are essential for maintaining financial security and ensuring compliance with legal and regulatory standards. As part of these checks, we verify company registration, address, media presence, sanctions, political exposure, fraud, and more.

Onboarding is a straightforward two-step process: begin with KYC and proceed to KYB once completed. After completing both steps, you can start using Bird Pay.
