MiCA Crypto User Verification

The MiCA CASP authorization deadline passed July 1, 2026 — one onboarding bundle for the identity verification, sanctions screening, and audit-ready records MiCA compliance requires.

What's included

Everything you need for mica crypto user verification

EU-aligned identity verification

Document and biometric checks tuned to MiCA's customer due diligence requirements.

Sanctions & PEP screening

Screen every user against EU, UN, and national sanctions and politically exposed persons lists.

Travel rule readiness

Originator and beneficiary data captured up front so transfers don't stall later.

Audit-ready decision records

Every verification outcome is timestamped and exportable for regulator review.

Reusable across EU entities

One verified credential works across every MiCA-regulated entity in your group.

Consent-first data handling

Explicit, purpose-bound consent captured on every check, GDPR-aligned by design.

How it works

MiCA compliance, built for CASPs, not retrofitted

MiCA compliance means Crypto-Asset Service Providers need customer due diligence, sanctions screening, and travel rule data on file before a user can transact. Hypersign bundles all three into one onboarding session.

1User completes identity verification with document + liveness checks
2Sanctions and PEP screening runs automatically against EU and global lists
3Travel rule originator/beneficiary data is captured and stored
4A Verifiable Credential is issued so the user doesn't re-verify with affiliated entities

Why Hypersign

More than mica crypto user verification

  • Native alignment with eIDAS 2.0 and the EUDI Wallet, not just MiCA in isolation
  • Verifiable Credentials mean reuse across every MiCA-regulated entity you operate
  • Consent infrastructure built in, ready for GDPR scrutiny alongside MiCA audits
  • One integration instead of stitching together a KYC vendor, a screening vendor, and a travel-rule tool

This is a triage guide for firms mid-application or still exposed: what ESMA's wind-down statement actually requires this week, and why the AML and travel-rule infrastructure exchanges are racing to build now will need to be rebuilt again the moment inter-CASP data exchange kicks in, unless it's built on reusable credentials from the start.
