Why did my ID fail review?

Since your ID has to be approved in order to verify your account, it needs to meet certain standards.

If the photo you uploaded does not fit the following requirements, it most likely failed review. Your ID needs to:

be a valid government-issued ID (passport recommended)
be of valid date (not expired)
show all four sides and corners
be clear, not blurry, with no glare
no watermarks, or crossing out of information
be an in-color photo
match the name on your Netcapital account
match the date of birth on your Netcapital account
- Please note: The date of birth format on your account should be Month/Day/Year

Additionally, if your ID includes some of this information on the back (for instance, expiration date), please upload two photos of your ID— one of the front, and one of the back.

Once you have taken a sufficient photo, please upload it to your settings page here. If you have any questions or issues with this process, please feel free to email us at help@netcapital.com.
