Understanding what is required for your account.
Dinheiro takes its regulatory obligations seriously. Our compliance framework is designed to protect client interests, maintain the integrity of our systems, and ensure all activity meets or exceeds applicable legal and regulatory standards. Compliance, anti-money laundering (AML) checks, and transaction processing are carried out in partnership with Sciopay Ltd, our authorised payment institution.
The requirements outlined below represent the documentation typically required when opening an account. Depending on the nature of your circumstances or the complexity of your business, additional information or documentation may be requested. These requirements are standard practice within regulated financial services.
Our online onboarding tools are designed to minimise administrative burden. In some cases, however, particularly where circumstances are more complex or where further verification is required, additional documentation may be necessary.
Standard requirements for individual clients include:
For corporate account applications, Dinheiro is required to verify the ultimate beneficial ownership and control structure of the entity. This includes obtaining information on all persons with significant ownership (typically those holding 25% or more of issued shares), at least one director, and all individuals authorised to instruct transactions.
Standard requirements for business clients include:
Entities with complex ownership structures, those operating in regulated or higher-risk sectors, or those with international connections may be subject to enhanced due diligence requirements.
Compliance obligations do not cease upon account activation. Dinheiro is required to conduct periodic reviews to ensure that all client information remains accurate and current. Clients may be asked from time to time to confirm or update their details.
Periodic review requirements may include:
