Account verification

Canadian financial regulations require KoboTrade to verify the identity of every customer before international money transfer services can be provided.

Identity verification helps KoboTrade:

For Canadian customers, KoboTrade accepts the following government-issued photo identification:

Your identification must:

  • Be valid.

  • Your identification expires.
  • Regulatory requirements change.
  • Additional verification is required.
  • Suspicious activity is detected.
  • Approximately every four (4) years as part of our ongoing compliance program.

  • Unable to verify supplied information.

If your verification is unsuccessful:

Referral and rewards

The KoboTrade Referral Program rewards you for introducing your family and friends to KoboTrade.

Here's how it works:

  • Share your unique KoboTrade referral link with your friends and family.
  • Your referral downloads the KoboTrade App or registers using your referral link.
  • Your referral successfully completes identity verification.
  • Your referral completes their first qualifying transfer of CAD $200 or more.
  • Once the qualifying transfer is completed:
  • You receive a CAD $20 referral reward.
  • Your referred customer also receives CAD $20 credited to their KoboTrade CAD Wallet.

Referral rewards are automatically credited to your KoboTrade account.

There is no limit to how much you can earn.

For every successful referral:

  • You earn CAD $20
  • Your referral earns CAD $20
  • Your referral must complete a qualifying transfer of at least CAD $200

Referral rewards are usually credited shortly after:

  • Your referral completes identity verification.
  • Their first qualifying transaction of CAD $200 or more has been successfully completed.
  • The transaction passes all compliance and fraud screening requirements.

If your reward has not been credited after a reasonable period, please contact KoboTrade Customer Support.

Once your cumulative transfers reach CAD $5,000, KoboTrade automatically credits your account with a CAD $20 Bonus.
