Verification Tiers on WhiteBIT: Unlock More Features Step by Step

Trust and security are the foundation of everything we build. To make the KYC process even clearer and more convenient for users, we’re introducing verification tiers — a new, structured approach to the identity verification procedure.
From now on, your verification level determines the range of services available to you. The higher the tier, the more financial tools and ecosystem products you can access.
What Are Verification Tiers?
KYC (Know Your Customer) verification is a standard procedure that confirms your identity and ensures compliance with international regulations.
With the new system, we’ve made it more transparent and flexible by introducing a distributed system of verification tiers.
Each tier provides access to specific features. The process is now more user-friendly: upgrading your verification takes just 2–5 minutes — simply upload the required documents to unlock more opportunities.
Check your KYC level and explore all WhiteBIT features.
Why Introduce the Tiers?
We designed the tiered system to make verification not just a requirement, but a clear and flexible process. The new structure is the solution built around clarity, speed, and trust.
Transparency
Previously, users passed a single verification procedure and received access to all features by default. While that seemed convenient, it also created confusion — not every product was clearly linked to the provided documents, and regulatory changes weren’t always reflected in real-time.
With tiers, this connection is clear: each tier of KYC clearly shows which products and features it unlocks, so users always understand what they can access now and what’s required to move forward.
Convenience
Each upgrade takes just a few minutes, and you only need to provide the documents required for that specific level. It’s simpler, faster, and far more tailored to users’ needs on the platform. We have an inheritance system, so you don’t need to go through every step again to upgrade. The idea is to add/complete the missing part and vice versa. If the user completes the highest tier, they’ll be able to access all the others.
Security
With each new verification tier, security controls become more robust. For example, Advanced users verify their address. This tiered protection ensures that sensitive features like fiat transactions and card issuance come with stronger safeguards — all while your data remains encrypted and stored according to strict compliance standards like GDPR.
