Updated over 4 months ago

Understanding Face Recognition Verification

At FXTRADING.com, we employ advanced face recognition technology as an additional security measure to protect your account and verify your identity. This biometric verification process requires you to complete a 3D facial scan that will be matched against the photo on your submitted identification documents.

When Face Recognition is Required

You may be prompted to complete face recognition verification in the following situations:

  • When using certain payment methods

  • During suspicious login attempts

  • For high-value transactions

  • When requested by our security team

When prompted, simply click "Verify Now" to begin the process.

Step-by-Step Guide to Face Recognition

  1. Initiate the Process: Click the verification button when prompted

  2. Review Instructions: Carefully read the on-screen guidance on the redirected page

  3. Enable Camera Access: Grant permission for your device's camera if requested

  4. Complete the Scan: Follow instructions to move your head in a circular motion, allowing the system to capture your face from multiple angles

  5. Await Confirmation: The system will notify you that your scan has been submitted for review

Best Practices for Successful Verification

  • Optimal Environment: Ensure you're in a well-lit area with minimal shadows

  • Clean Background: Use a plain, light-colored background without distractions

  • Solo Verification: Only your face should be visible in the frame

  • Remove Obstructions: Take off glasses, hats, masks, or any items that cover facial features

  • Proper Positioning: Hold your device at eye level, approximately 12-18 inches from your face

  • Natural Expression: Maintain a neutral facial expression throughout the scan

Important Considerations

  • Account Holder Only: Only the registered account holder can complete the face recognition. Attempts by others will result in rejection.

  • Failed Verification Consequences: If your face recognition is rejected for a specific payment method, you won't be able to use that method or other methods requiring face recognition. Alternative payment options will remain available.

  • Processing Time: While the scanning process takes only 1-2 minutes, the verification review typically takes 3-7 minutes. In exceptional cases, it may take up to 24 hours.

Data Security and Privacy

We understand the sensitivity of biometric data and employ industry-leading encryption and security protocols. Your facial recognition data is:

  • Stored securely with advanced encryption

  • Used solely for verification purposes

  • Never shared with third parties

  • Processed in compliance with global data protection regulations
