Why Verification Matters
Identity verification (KYC - Know Your Customer) is a fundamental part of the ELITORO experience. This process ensures the integrity, security, and exclusivity of our network.
What is KYC Verification?
KYC verification confirms that you are who you say you are. ELITORO partners with Veriff, a leading identity verification provider, to securely verify member identities.
