Why address verification is required

Residential address verification is a standard step when opening a financial account. While it might seem like a formality, it plays a vital role in protecting you and the financial system. As a regulated platform, Rain adheres to these global standards to ensure a safe environment for your crypto journey.

Why verification matters

Address verification helps prevent fraud, money laundering, and the misuse of financial services. By confirming your residence, we ensure that funds move securely between real, verified individuals. This transparency creates a safer ecosystem for everyone and protects your assets from unauthorized activity.

Your data stays confidential

We understand that sharing personal documents requires trust. We handle all uploads with strict confidentiality using bank-grade security protocols. We use these documents solely for verification purposes and never share them with third parties.

Accepted documents

Your document must be recent and clearly display your full name and residential address. Accepted forms generally include a recent bank statement, a utility bill for electricity or water, or a tenancy contract. Please ensure the details on the document match the information on your Rain account exactly. You can learn more about this here.
