Revesto

KYC Verification Guide

Everything you need to complete identity verification on Revesto — tiers, documents and what to expect at each step.

Revesto is a UK-based fractional property investment platform. Before you invest, we must verify your identity under Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) regulations.

Verification is completed in order: Basic → Standard → Enhanced (only if required). Each tier unlocks a higher investment limit.

How it works

  1. 1

    Verify your email & profile

    Confirm your email address and complete your profile (name and phone number) before uploading documents.

  2. 2

    Upload required documents

    Upload clear copies of each document for your current tier. Accepted formats: PDF, JPG, or PNG (max 10 MB per file).

  3. 3

    Wait for document review

    Our compliance team verifies each document. You can submit your KYC application once all required documents are approved.

  4. 4

    Submit for KYC review

    Submit your application for the tier you qualify for. Standard and Enhanced tiers also require bank account details.

  5. 5

    Compliance approval

    We run ID checks, PEP/sanctions screening and risk assessment. You will be notified by email and in-app when approved or if we need more information.

  6. 6

    Upgrade when needed

    After Basic approval, complete Standard KYC to invest more. Enhanced due diligence applies if your portfolio exceeds £50,000 or compliance flags additional review.

Verification flow

KYC flow: Registration, Basic KYC, Standard KYC, EDD trigger, Enhanced KYC, Ongoing Monitoring
  • You cannot skip tiers — every investor starts with Basic KYC.
  • If Basic or Enhanced KYC is rejected, you can address the feedback and resubmit at the same tier.
  • Standard KYC is sufficient for most investors (up to £50,000 total portfolio).
  • Approved KYC expires after one year — you will be prompted to renew before investing again.

Frequently asked questions

How long does verification take?
Document review typically takes 1–3 business days. Full KYC approval depends on queue volume and tier complexity. Enhanced reviews may take longer.
Why must documents be verified before I submit?
Each upload is checked for clarity, validity and consistency with your profile. Submitting with unverified documents would delay your application.
Can I invest before KYC is approved?
No. You need an approved KYC at the appropriate tier before making investments or withdrawals.
What investment limits apply to each tier?
Basic: under £5,000 total portfolio. Standard: £5,000–£50,000. Enhanced: above £50,000 with no cap. Limits apply to your cumulative investment on the platform.
Is my data secure?
Documents are stored securely and accessed only by authorised compliance staff. We follow UK data protection requirements and retain records as required by AML regulations.
