Banking

πŸ”“ Do I need to create a Vault to use banking?

Nope. You can use banking directly with your own wallet. That said β€” if you want more protection (multi-sig, seedless, AI co-signers), using your Locked Money Vault is a great upgrade.

πŸͺͺ What KYC is required?

To activate banking, you'll need to:

  • Sign in with your wallet

  • Submit basic identity details (no passport required)

  • Upload proof of address

  • Add your bank account information

KYC is quick to complete, and typically approved much faster than centralized exchanges.

πŸ•’ How long does KYC take?

It usually takes just a few minutes to complete. Approval may take a few hours to a few days β€” but never weeks. You'll be notified once you're verified and ready to go.

πŸ’Έ What’s the transaction limit?

You can send up to $500,000 per transaction β€” with no limit on how many transactions you can make. That’s one of the highest limits available for retail crypto users

πŸ’° What are the fees?

Locked Money charges a flat 1.5% fee per transfer. No hidden fees, no sketchy FX markups. Just one clear, competitive rate.

πŸ” Can I do both on-ramp and off-ramp?

Yes. You can:

  • Convert fiat from your bank into crypto (on-ramp)

  • Convert crypto into fiat and send it to your bank (off-ramp)

All directly from your wallet or Vault. No centralized exchange required.

🧠 Can I use a Vault for banking?

Absolutely. Your Locked Money Vault gives you:

  • AI oversight (coming soon)

  • Seedless setup It’s the most secure way to use banking β€” especially for larger transfers or team-controlled funds.

πŸš€ How fast are transfers?

Very fast. In many cases, your funds will arrive faster than traditional international bank wires. Timing may depend on your local banking system, but we’ve optimized the flow for speed.

πŸ” Is this self-custodial?

Yes.
