How do I verify my identity?

Updated on

The Anti-Money Laundering Act requires us to clearly identify all investors. At the latest after your first investment, we need three pieces of evidence:

  1. Online identification: You receive an invitation. You take a photo of your ID and of yourself, which takes a few minutes.
  2. Personal confirmation: a transfer from your own account or a certified copy of your ID (see below).
  3. Proof of address: a recent bill in your name at your address, for example for electricity, telephone or internet.

Transfer: Transfer CHF 5 by e-banking from your own bank account to Cashare AG, PostFinance, IBAN CH06 0900 0000 6076 2123 0. Please do not use a reference number; a payment at the counter is not sufficient. For your investments, on the other hand, use the QR-bill with its reference number.

Certified copy of your ID: Have a copy of your ID certified, for example with Swiss Post's "Yellow Identification", at your municipality or from a notary. Send the original to the address in the imprint.

Upload the proof of address and Form A in your account under "Documents".

For companies: The company proves its identity with a transfer from an account in the company's name or with a certified commercial register extract, plus a proof of address. The authorised signatories verify their identity personally as described above. Instead of Form A, the company submits Form K.
