Proof of Income - What documents do I need?

As part of our ongoing commitment to keeping Onboard safe and secure, we may occasionally ask you to verify your source of income. This is a standard compliance check and doesn't mean anything is wrong with your account.


When asked, you'll see a Proof of Income screen in the app. Select the option that best describes your situation and upload the relevant documents.


Employment or contract work
  • Employment contract or offer letter from your employer
  • Pay slip or bank statement showing salary credit (in USD, GBP, or EUR)
  • Invoice or receipt from a client (in USD, GBP, or EUR)


Freelance or creator earnings (YouTube, Upwork, Fiverr, etc.)
  • Earnings dashboard screenshot (e.g., YouTube, Fiverr, Upwork) showing your name
  • Payout receipt or transaction confirmation from the platform
  • Invoice issued through the platform (in USD, GBP, or EUR)


Crypto earnings
  • Trade or transaction history from your exchange, showing your name and balance


Savings or investment account
  • Bank statement (last 3 months) showing your name and balance (in USD, GBP, or EUR)
  • Fund deposit or investment account document showing your name and balance
  • Screenshot from savings platform showing your name or balance (in USD, GBP, or EUR)


Tips for a smooth review:

  • Make sure your name is visible on the document
  • Documents should show amounts in USD, GBP, or EUR
  • Screenshots must be clear and unedited
  • If your document is in a different language, it may take longer to review


If you're unsure which category fits, pick the closest match. If none applies, contact support and we'll guide you.
