Notification of Mandatory KYC for Exchange Broker Subaccount

Dear Exchange Broker Partners,

Due to the restrictive environment of the global regulation and anti-money laundering practices, KuCoin is going to conduct mandatory KYC for all Exchange Broker Sub-account, which is a special type of subaccount carrying an independent deposit address and created via api endpoint POST/api/v1/broker/nd/account only. 

Please be aware that non-broker normal sub-accounts under the master account are unimpacted and do not require KYC as usual. Broker Master Account can create normal sub accounts as well. Please check here to see the method of creating normal subaccounts. Each master account has a max normal subaccounts of 500. and there are no independent deposit addresses for normal subaccounts. 

For Exchange Broker Sub-account KYC, please use this api endpoint to send all information to KuCoin. We don’t have a H5 page yet. The only way to deliver KYC info is via KuCoin API. See API document here.

KYC verification is a one-time action, and after confirming the verification has been successful, the sub account can be allowed to create deposit addresses, trade, transfer, etc. There is no need to send KYC multiple times for one subaccount. 

For any questions, please contact us on Telegram. 

Regards

The KuCoin Broker Team
