Verifying an Australia-Registered Business

Businesses operating in Australia must complete ID verification and provide business documents to onboard with HitPay.

Verification Process

Identity Verification

The account representative must complete:

ID verification is required after the bank account is successfully linked.

Document Verification

Please prepare and submit the following:

  • Identification documents (e.g., passport with signature) of:
    • The account representative
    • The person signing the LOA

Additional documentation may be required depending on your business type, ownership, or activities.

Common Additional Requirements

  • Complex ownership structures → Submit a detailed Beneficial Ownership Structure
