The first payment gate: $300 per asset
Validation is step 7 of the process and the first moment where an investment on your part is required. For $300 USD per asset, our team performs a thorough verification of your identity, your asset, and the financial viability of the operation.
This step exists to protect all participants. A validated asset has credibility with investors. Rigorous validation builds confidence across the entire ecosystem.
What do we verify?
Validation covers three main dimensions:
Identity (KYC/KYB)
- Individuals: We verify your identity with an official document, proof of address, and basic background checks.
- Legal entities: We verify the company's legal existence, corporate structure, legal representatives, and standing with the corresponding regulatory authority.
- Compliance lists: We check international anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing (AML/CFT) lists.
The goal is to confirm that whoever operates the asset is who they claim to be and that there are no regulatory impediments to proceed.
Asset
- Physical or digital existence. We verify that the asset exists. For physical assets (solar farms, fleets, industrial plants), this may include visits or remote verification with documentary evidence. For digital assets (SaaS, platforms), operation is verified through metrics and access.
- Productivity. We confirm the asset actually generates revenue. We do not finance assets at the idea or construction stage without demonstrable cash flow.
- Ownership. We verify that you (or your company) are the actual owner or hold the operating rights to the asset.
- Legal status. We confirm the asset has no liens, seizures, or pending legal disputes that would prevent its use as collateral.
Financial viability
- Cash flow. We analyze the asset's historical and projected revenue to confirm it can support the financing payments.
- Coverage ratio. The asset's revenue must comfortably cover the monthly interest payments. An asset that barely generates enough to pay is not viable.
- Consistency. We cross-reference the financial information provided with tax verification (if available) and uploaded documentation.
The step-by-step process
- You pay the $300. Through the platform, with a credit or debit card.
- We assign an evaluator. A member of our risk team takes your case.
- Document review. All documentation you have provided is analyzed.
- Supplementary verification. If additional information is needed, we request it directly. This may include calls, video calls, or requests for extra documents.
- On-site verification (if applicable). For certain asset types or large amounts, we coordinate a visit to the asset or real-time remote verification via video.
- Go/No-Go decision. The evaluator issues their ruling.
Timelines
The validation process typically takes between 3 and 10 business days, depending on:
- The complexity of the asset
- The quality of the documentation provided
- The need for additional verification
- Your response time to information requests
The more complete and organized your documentation is at the time of validation, the faster the process will be.
The decision: Go or No-Go
If it's a Go
Your asset advances to step 8: legal structure. You receive formal confirmation and instructions to proceed with the creation of the SPV and the necessary contracts.
If it's a No-Go
It's not the end of the road. You receive a report with:
- The specific reasons for the rejection
- Concrete recommendations on what you need to improve or correct
- A suggested timeframe for reapplication
The most common reasons for a No-Go are incomplete documentation, insufficient cash flow, or ownership issues that can be resolved. Many operators who receive an initial No-Go successfully pass validation on their second attempt after addressing the observations.
Is the $300 refundable?
No. The cost covers the verification work regardless of the outcome. This ensures the objectivity of the process: the evaluation team has no incentive to approve or reject.
