BuyBitcoinLeb compliance position

AML procedures aligned with FATF guidance. Operating in accordance with applicable Banque du Liban (BDL) circulars.

KYC verification on every transaction

Every transaction begins with customer identification and verification. The required information can vary by transaction size, asset, payment or payout route, transaction history and risk profile.

AML screening and risk review

BuyBitcoinLeb reviews the transaction purpose, source of funds or crypto where required, wallet and payment information, counterparties and other risk indicators before accepting a transaction.

Own-account and own-wallet principle

Customers should transact for themselves and use accounts or wallets they control. Third-party requests can require additional review or may be refused.

Human confirmation before settlement

No website estimate, wallet address or payment instruction is final until an authorized BuyBitcoinLeb agent confirms the complete transaction.

Why a request may be delayed or refused

  • Incomplete or inconsistent identity information.
  • Unclear transaction purpose or source of funds.
  • Third-party control of the wallet, account or payment.
  • High-risk wallet or transaction indicators.
  • Unsupported asset, network, destination or settlement route.
  • Failure to provide information required for the compliance review.

Confidential handling

Customer information is used for verification, transaction processing, AML controls, fraud prevention, recordkeeping and support. BuyBitcoinLeb never needs a seed phrase, private key, exchange password or 2FA code.
