Creator Verification (KYC)
To receive payouts from VideoMart, every creator must complete the required KYC (Know Your Customer) or Business Verification process.
Verification helps ensure secure payments, comply with applicable laws and regulations, and protect both creators and the VideoMart ecosystem.
Important: You can create your VideoMart Studio, upload premium video content, and publish videos before your verification is complete. However, VideoMart will not release any creator payouts until your KYC or Business Verification has been successfully approved.
