Limits

To meet compliance requirements, VelaFi applies different transaction and withdrawal limits based on the user’s region and verification level. This ensures that all users operate within the regulatory framework of their respective jurisdictions.

1Default Merchant Wallet Limit

After successfully creating a Merchant, VelaFi automatically provisions a crypto custody wallet for that merchant.

  • The wallet is activated upon creation.

  • The default monthly withdrawal limit is USD 15,000.

2. Individual Users

VelaFi classifies individual users into two categories — Consumers and Professionals, each with different verification requirements and transaction limits.

Consumers

  • Requires minimal documentation for verification.

  • Quick review process, with lower transaction limits.

  • Suitable for low-frequency or small-value payment use cases.
