This guide follows FundingPips' published identity and account-setup requirements. Proptradingvibes may earn a commission through the FundingPips partner link.
When does FundingPips require KYC?
For evaluation accounts, KYC follows the pass. In the dashboard, open Settings → Account Verification → Start Verification. Complete the requested actions before the Master Account can become available.
FundingPips Zero and the 1K Instant Giveaway follow a shorter path. They skip the evaluation-history review; KYC and the Customer Agreement are provided together. Completing both enables trading, according to Master Account Setup.
Which documents are currently required?
| Requirement | What FundingPips lists |
|---|---|
| Identity | Government-issued ID, passport, driver's license or permanent residence permit. |
| Address | A utility bill or bank statement dated within three months. The detailed setup guide also lists official or notarized proof of residence and government-issued documents showing an address. |
| Selfie | A clear image that matches the submitted identity document. |
The Get Started guide gives the three-month address requirement and a shorter ID list. The detailed Master Account Setup guide explicitly includes driver's licenses and permanent residence permits. Use the document options offered for your case in the verification portal.
Check the full document before uploading it. Expired documents, glare, blur, handwriting and cropped edges can cause rejection. Your profile name must match your ID.
How long does FundingPips verification take?
FundingPips says automated KYC usually takes a few minutes. A manual case goes to compliance, which contacts you by email; the setup guide gives no fixed deadline for that review.
The two-working-day periods below apply to later account checks and setup. They are not a guaranteed KYC turnaround or a single deadline for the whole process.
What happens after KYC approval?
- In Review: the Responsible Trading Team checks the evaluation history. FundingPips allows up to two working days.
- Customer Agreement: check and sign the agreement sent by email.
- Onboarding: FundingPips connects the Master Account to its risk system, with up to two further working days allowed. Contact support if this stage exceeds that period.
When the status becomes New, accounts with multiple reward-cycle options use Set Reward Cycle to enable trading. That choice is permanent. The 2-Step Flex reward split is chosen at checkout. Follow the options for your model; the four-stage evaluation route does not apply to the instant accounts described above.
If verification is stuck
Check for an unfinished portal action, a document-quality problem or an email from compliance. Keep access to your registered email while the application is being reviewed.
If KYC was declined because the identity is already verified on another account, use that verified account. FundingPips prohibits resubmitting under a new email.
For a manual review, follow the request and submit the replacement document or clarification through the stated channel. If the dashboard and email leave the next action unclear, contact FundingPips support with the account reference and the status shown.
Is Rise KYC the same as FundingPips KYC?
Rise requires its own verification. After a reward request using Rise is approved, the invitation arrives by email. Register with the same first name, last name and email as your FundingPips account, then complete the Rise agreements and ID/selfie checks. FundingPips says a different Rise email prevents processing through that method.
If the invitation is missing, check spam first. If the reward is approved and the email still has not arrived, contact FundingPips support. Follow Rise's app prompts for its current sign-in and verification steps. These instructions appear in Reward Methods.
How does direct bank verification differ?
When Bank Transfer is available in your region, select it during the reward request. Use My bank accounts to verify a new bank account, or select one already verified. The receiving account must be in your own name.
A completed Master Account KYC does not replace these payment-method checks. Check your bank details or, if you already use Rise, your Rise profile before submitting the reward request.
