Failure to complete identity verification (KYC), video interview, or document checks within the firm’s deadline, triggering payout denial and account cancellation.
The rule
Failure to complete identity verification (KYC), video interview, or document checks within the firm’s deadline, triggering payout denial and account cancellation.
In denialrate’s refusal-ground taxonomy this category maps to a know-your-customer rule — a rule about identity verification, video interviews, and document checks. The ground tells a trader which kind of clause to look for in a firm’s terms: a process rule, a risk rule, a prohibited-conduct rule, a KYC rule, or a discretionary right the firm reserves to itself.
Industry-estimate share
Industry estimate: 5% of prop-firm payout denials. industry estimate, source: hftarbitrageplatform.com, accessed 2026-08-03. This is an industry estimate, not a denialrate measurement; denialrate adopts the taxonomy and publishes its own per-firm, per-category counts as the verified-cases ledger fills.
Firms affected
No firms confirmed in this category yet. The category is published so the structure exists before the data fills. A firm appears here once its terms invoke this category’s rule or a verified denial case is recorded against it.
Verified cases across firms
0 verified cases in this category. A verified case is a denied-payout report denialrate has checked against a primary source (the firm’s terms, a court filing, a regulator notice). Trader reports alone never count as a verified case.
