PoA documents for UBOs are now mandatory

Starting January 8th, 2026, it will be mandatory for all Ultimate Beneficial Owners (UBOs) to submit a valid proof of address document as part of the onboarding process. For comprehensive guidance on accepted documents and submission procedures, please refer to the documentation here.

New updates to Business PoA documents

If you are onboarding a contractor or freelancer company in Brazil (with a single UBO), and the company's registered address is that of the accountant, we will accept a document co-signed by both the accountant and the UBO. This document should clearly explain their relationship and the reason for using the accountant's address as the company's official registration.

One API.
Multiple payment rails.
