Why do I need to verify my account again?

If you're accessing new products or services on Bitpanda, you may be asked to verify your account again. This article explains why re-verification is required and what to expect.

Why is re-verification required?

Bitpanda is a regulated financial services provider. Different products may be offered by different Bitpanda entities, each subject to specific regulatory requirements. When you access a new product, the relevant regulations may require us to verify your identity again.

This is especially common if:

  • You were onboarded under a previous verification standard
  • You're accessing a product tied to a different Bitpanda entity
  • Local regulations require additional verification for specific products

What triggers re-verification?

Re-verification may be required when you engage with certain products for the first time, such as:

  • Real Stocks
  • Other regulated investment products

These products are subject to local regulatory requirements, and re-verification ensures that your account meets all necessary compliance standards.

The process is quick

Re-verification is straightforward and typically takes just a few minutes. Depending on the product, you may need to:

  • Accept updated Terms and Conditions
  • Complete a video identification
  • Provide or confirm your ID documents

Note: Once you've completed re-verification, you won't need to do it again for that product.
