Verifying your Uphold or Gemini account means performing ID-verification (or "KYC") for your Uphold or Gemini account. Note that the ID verification process with Uphold or Gemini is independent of Brave, and is handled by the custodian.
To verify your Uphold account, follow the steps below:

Uphold’s verification process can take up to 24 hours. You don't have to verify your identity until you withdraw or send funds to other people. You can tell if you’re a verified user by looking at the dashboard: you'll see a green check mark next to your profile in the upper right-hand corner. If it’s there, you’re verified.
