Accounts

Overview​

On the BlockWyre platform, an Account represents the primary entity for each account holder — whether an individual or a business. The account is the core through which all financial and digital asset operations are managed. The following details the key components and functionalities of an account on the platform.

Account Components​

Balances​

Each account has associated balances that reflect the amount of available funds in different currencies. Balances are updated in real-time to provide an accurate view of the account's financial status.

Wallets​

Accounts have wallets that allow for receiving and storing cryptocurrencies. Each wallet is associated with a unique address used for cryptocurrency transactions.

Virtual Bank Accounts​

Accounts can have virtual bank accounts that facilitate integration with the traditional banking system. These accounts allow for making and receiving payments in fiat currencies.

Beneficiaries​

Accounts can have designated beneficiaries for sending cryptocurrency to external wallet addresses.

Counterparties​

Accounts can have designated counterparties for making bank payments via ACH (Automated Clearing House) or Wire. Counterparties are entities or individuals to whom fiat funds can be sent from the account.

Account Functionalities​

Transactions​

Through the account, account holders can perform various transactions, including deposits, withdrawals, and transfers. All transactions are recorded and can be monitored in real-time.

Trading​

Accounts can execute trades to convert between cryptocurrencies and fiat currencies. This functionality allows account holders to exchange digital assets efficiently and at competitive rates.

KYC (Know Your Customer)​

The account creation process includes a KYC (Know Your Customer) procedure for individual accounts. This process is essential for verifying the account holder's identity and complying with financial regulations. During KYC, personal information is collected and verified to ensure the legitimacy of the account.

KYB (Know Your Business)​

For business accounts, the KYB (Know Your Business) procedure is required. This process involves verifying the business entity, its ownership structure, and its authorized representatives to ensure compliance with financial regulations.
