Compliance

Every member verifies before trading

There is no unverified trading tier and no rand threshold. Identity verification (KYC) is required for every ZARXE member before the first trade, whatever the amount.

Verify your account

Before verification

Created immediately after sign-up. You can browse the marketplace, deposit and withdraw USDT, but no trade can be opened until your identity verification is approved — there is no amount you can trade unverified.

Verified — required for all trading

Required before your first trade, no matter how small. Submit a South African ID, passport or driver's licence plus a proof of address issued in the last three months. Reviews are usually completed within one business day, and ZARXE may ask for further information at any time.

What we do and don't do

Records

We keep trade, payment-method and verification records for the periods required by South African financial legislation.

Monitoring

Unusual trading patterns, mismatched payer names and repeated disputes are reviewed. Accounts may be restricted while a review is open.

Your obligations

You are responsible for declaring crypto asset gains to SARS and for complying with exchange control rules. ZARXE does not provide tax or financial advice.

ZARXE operates a peer-to-peer marketplace: rand payments move directly between users' own bank accounts and ZARXE holds only crypto assets in escrow. Prohibited activity — including third-party payments, money laundering, fraud and trading on behalf of an undisclosed party — will result in account closure and, where appropriate, referral to the relevant authorities. See our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy for the full detail.
