1. KYC is required for cashout
You can browse, buy, and sell items with a standard account. However, identity verification (KYC) is required before you can cash out any balance to a card, wallet, or crypto address. Verification typically takes a couple of minutes and helps keep your funds protected.
2. What we verify
- A valid government-issued photo ID (passport, national ID, or driver's license).
- Proof of the payout method ownership where required.
- In higher-risk cases, proof of address or source of funds.
Verification is handled by a regulated third-party provider; documents are processed securely in line with our Privacy Policy.
3. Monitoring & thresholds
We apply transaction monitoring and risk scoring across the platform. Enhanced due diligence may be triggered by elevated cashout volumes, unusual trading patterns, or high-risk indicators. We may request additional information and pause activity while a review is completed.
4. Reporting & restrictions
Where we identify suspicious activity, we are legally obliged to report it to the relevant financial authorities and may be required to freeze the associated balance. We do not tip off users about reports made to authorities. Accounts linked to fraud, stolen items, or sanctioned parties will be restricted or closed.
5. Sanctions & prohibited regions
skin1 does not knowingly serve individuals or entities on applicable EU, UN, or other relevant sanctions lists, nor users in restricted jurisdictions. By using the service you confirm you are not subject to such restrictions.
