Why is my verification failing?

Updated 6 month ago

The most common reasons for verification failures include.

  • The ID is laminated, peeled, broken, or expired.

  • The ID is printed or photocopied or is not of the original ID.

  • The name on the bank account does not match the business's name (for registered businesses/NGOs) or merchant (for unregistered businesses).

  • A corporate bank account is provided for an unregistered business account (or vice versa).

  • The name on your BVN (Bank Verification Number) does not match the name on your valid ID or bank account number (for Nigerian businesses).

  • A selfie taken in a poorly lit environment or provided with an unclear or blurry image can also cause verification to fail.
