Identity verification (Sumsub)
Every candidate completes Sumsub government-ID verification before we look at anything else. We hold a passport-grade record of the legally documented adult behind the chat under 18 U.S.C. § 2257 compliance. If the document does not match the face on the cards she sent us, the application stops here. About a third drop off at this step alone, sometimes because the documents are not real, sometimes because the person submitting them is not the person they're claiming to be. Either way, we do not move forward.
