What Should I Do If My Identity Verification Fails?

If your KYC verification fails, it’s usually due to document or photo issues—follow a few simple steps to fix it and try again.

If your identity verification (KYC) fails, don’t worry—this is common and usually easy to fix. Verification checks are in place to keep your account secure and to meet legal requirements for financial services.

At Yeeld, identity verification is completed digitally using secure providers and may include ID checks, selfies, and address verification as part of the onboarding process .

Common reasons verification fails

Most issues come down to small errors or unclear information, such as:

Blurry or low-quality photos of your ID or selfie
Documents that are expired or not supported
Details that don’t match, such as your name or date of birth
Poor lighting or glare on your document
Incomplete images, where edges or corners are cut off

How to fix it

You can usually resolve this by retrying with a few simple improvements:

1. Upload clearer images

Make sure your document is fully visible
Use good lighting and avoid glare or shadows
Keep your camera steady and in focus

2. Use valid documents

Ensure your ID is in date
Only use accepted document types (e.g. passport or driving licence)

3. Check your details carefully

Make sure your name, date of birth, and other details match exactly
Avoid nicknames or abbreviations

4. Follow the selfie instructions

Ensure your face is clearly visible
Remove hats or sunglasses
Complete any liveness checks as prompted
