Final Thoughts
If by chance you are not able to deposit or fund your wallet, or it is showing any issues, then you have to check your KYC. In some areas, payment providers ask for KYC verification as per the regulatory standards. In such a situation, you need to complete your KYC first and then proceed with the payment. At the same time, some providers do not operate in certain areas. Thus, you have to choose a provider who actively supports transactions in your region.
