In most cases, the process is fast and completed within minutes. --- ### Typical verification times - **Fully automated checks:** Usually completed in **30 seconds to 2 minutes** - **Faster non-document checks (where applicable):** Can take as little as **a few seconds** - **Manual review (if required):** May take **several hours up to 48 hours** Most users are verified almost instantly, especially when documents are clear and all information is correct. --- ### What affects verification speed? A few factors can impact how quickly your verification is completed: - **Image quality** Blurry or unclear photos may require resubmission or manual review - **Document validity** Expired or unsupported documents can delay the process - **Information accuracy** Details must match exactly (e.g. name, date of birth) - **Security checks** Additional checks may be triggered to prevent fraud or meet regulatory requirements Yeeld’s onboarding process uses automated systems alongside additional checks where needed to ensure both speed and security --- ### If your verification is taking longer If your verification hasn’t been completed within the expected timeframe: - Double-check that your documents were submitted correctly - Wait up to **48 hours** for manual review - Contact support if the delay continues --- ### Why verification may take longer In some cases, extra time is needed to: - Protect your account from fraud - Meet legal and compliance requirements - Ensure your information is accurate and secure These checks are part of Yeeld’s commitment to maintaining a safe and compliant platform --- ### In summary - Most verifications are completed **in under a minute** - Some may take **longer if manual review is needed** - Delays are usually due to **document quality or additional checks** Yeeld aims to make verification as fast as possible while keeping your account secure. -
