The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) and the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) mandate that all Indian financial institutions verify the identity and address of all the customers who wish to carry out any transactions with them. This process is known as KYC or \u2018know your customer.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Online KYC is an easy, streamlined method to establish the authenticity of the customer. Read on to find out how you can complete your online KYC after signing up on Moneyfy in just five simple steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Before you begin your KYC process, you must download the Moneyfy app<\/a> from Google Play Store and authenticate yourself with your mobile number. Then you must complete the registration process by providing your name and email id. You must enter your name exactly as it appears on your PAN Card.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Once your details are validated, you will have to provide your account number and your bank\u2019s IFSC code. You can authenticate your bank details by uploading a picture of a cancelled cheque. Or, you can choose the penny drop system where Moneyfy will deposit Re. 1 in your bank account to verify it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Completing your KYC has never been easier. You can complete your mutual fund KYC online from the comfort of your home. All you need to do is keep your documents ready for uploading and follow the steps below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Your PAN Card serves as your primary identity proof. Click a picture of your PAN Card or scan it via your phone. Make sure that it is not crooked, cropped or out of focus. If you think that the photo you have clicked is unsatisfactory, try again and upload the new one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can provide your Voter Id, Aadhar Card, driving license, or passport as your address proof. You need to upload both the front and back of these documents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Click a picture of the document you wish to upload. Make sure that all details are visible and the image is not blurred or crooked. Clarity is of utmost importance when uploading pictures online for your mutual fund KYC. This is because these documents are legally required for you to be able to operate your account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Take a selfie from the front camera of your smartphone. The photo needs to be in focus, and your face should be in the centre of the frame. Make sure there is adequate lighting and your face is clearly visible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Mark your signature clearly on a piece of unruled white paper. Taking a plain sheet of paper for your signature eliminates any possibility of distortion to it. After this, take a photograph of the signed piece of paper and crop it so that your signature is clearly visible. You can try this as many times as you want. When you are happy with the result, upload the image to the app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Access the front camera of your phone and start recording a video. Make sure your face is in focus and in the centre of the frame, with adequate lighting. Then read out the numbers on your screen. The purpose of this exercise is to authenticate the identity of the account holder. It helps keep your account secure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Once you\u2019ve uploaded the necessary paperwork, you will receive an OTP on your Aadhar-linked mobile number. Once you enter the OTP in the form, it is automatically sent for review. This is your Aadhar-based electronic signature. Your account will be opened in nearly 5-7 days!<\/p>\n\n\n\n By following the steps above, you now know how to do KYC online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n The reason why the government mandates KYC is to safeguard against instances of money laundering and fraud. It is to make sure that investors are using their real identities and can be tracked in case of any default.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In the case of mutual funds, an asset manager or an investment management company builds a varied investment portfolio on behalf of the investors. Without you completing your mutual fund KYC online, they cannot access your money or act on your behalf legally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Complete your mutual fund KYC online to start investing.
