# Registration process

As we mentioned earlier, our entire platform runs on the blockchain, which gives us many advantages in terms of speed, transparency, and security, but it might also be a difficult technology for a person who is not familiar with its tools and concepts.

For this reason, we have developed a platform that runs behind the scenes on the blockchain and enjoys all of its benefits, but for the end user it is as if they were using a website like any other.

#### The registration process on the platform

1. The user has to go through a registration process and a KYC check to comply with the regulations and provide:
   * Some data such as full name, document number, address
   * A photo of the document and a selfie with it
   * Bank details to be used on the platform
2. In this process, the user can choose how to access the platform:
   * Through their own cryptocurrency wallet (under their custody)
   * If the user is not familiar with cryptocurrency wallets, accessing the website is done via email address and password, just like any other website.
