Receivers

People or businesses that will receive payments or stablecoins.

What is a receiver?

A receiver is an individual or business entity designated to interact with BlindPay.

For compliance and regulatory requirements, every customer on your platform must be registered as a receiver in BlindPay. This is a mandatory step to ensure proper transaction tracking and reporting. If any of your customers operate as money transmitters (entities that transfer funds on behalf of others), they are also required to register their end customers as receivers in the system. This multi-level registration ensures complete transparency throughout the payment chain.

You can attach multiple bank accounts and blockchain wallets to a receiver.

Compliance and KYC

Every receiver is required to go through a KYC process to verify their identity.

These are the data we collect for every receiver type (business, individual) and receiver kyc_type (standard, enhanced):
