KYC and limits
When KYC is required for withdrawal in MeerPartners, what documents are needed, minimum amounts, limits on tracking links and how protection against inflation works.
KYC (Know Your Customer) is the verification of an influencer's identity. On MeerPartners it is not always needed, but it can be a mandatory condition for withdrawing funds. Here is when KYC is required, which documents are accepted, what minimums and limits apply, and how the basic anti-fraud checks work.
When KYC is required
KYC is required for withdrawing funds, if it is enabled for your case (offer/amount/platform policy). Until KYC is passed, a payout request is rejected with the KYC_REQUIRED error ("Pass KYC to withdraw").
KYC is the basis for legal payouts
Verification is needed so that the platform can correctly pay income to an individual (including as a self-employed person or sole proprietor). This is a one-time procedure: once you pass it, you withdraw funds without repeat verification.
KYC statuses
| Status | What it means |
|---|---|
| Not passed | Verification has not started |
Under review (pending) | Documents submitted, the check is in progress |
Verified (verified) | Identity confirmed — withdrawal is available |
Rejected (rejected) | Documents not accepted — they need to be resubmitted |
Which documents are accepted
- Passport
- National ID
- Driver's license
Document upload — in the Verification (KYC) section of the influencer cabinet. Resubmitting when KYC is already submitted returns KYC_ALREADY_SUBMITTED — wait for the check result.
Open the KYC section
Go to Verification (KYC) in your profile.
Upload a document
Choose the type (passport / national ID / license) and attach a clear photo without glare or cropped edges.
Wait for the check
The status will change to "under review", then to "verified" or "rejected". On rejection, resubmit a correct document.
Minimum withdrawal amounts
You can withdraw an amount not below the minimum (per-currency). Default thresholds:
| Currency | Minimum |
|---|---|
| RUB | 500 |
| USD | 10 |
| EUR | 10 |
A request below the threshold is rejected with BELOW_MIN_PAYOUT. The platform or the business may override the minimum — the current value is shown in the request form. More on withdrawal — Payout methods.
Limits on links and rate
To protect the system from abuse, limits apply:
- Tracking-link limit per offer. You can create a limited number of links per offer. On exceeding it —
LINK_LIMIT_REACHED("The link limit for this offer is reached"). Usesub_idtags instead of new links to split traffic — see Tracking links. - Request rate limit. Too-frequent API calls/actions are temporarily limited —
RATE_LIMITED("Too frequent, try later"). Reduce the frequency and retry.
Anti-fraud checks
The platform automatically checks traffic at several stages — on the click, on the conversion and before payout. The goal is to cut off inflation, bots and bad-faith traffic without losing legitimate data: anything suspicious is moved to a visible state (hold or a flag for manual review) rather than discarded silently.
| Stage | What it ensures |
|---|---|
| Click | Bot and automated traffic is filtered out and does not take part in attribution |
| Conversion | Anomalous and suspicious conversions are moved to hold or to manual review |
| Before payout | Requests with risk signals go to manual review (on_hold) |
Lead inflation (CPL)
For CPL offers, a repeat lead from the same user within the deduplication window is not paid a second time — LEAD_DUPLICATE. Bots and incentivized traffic with no real interest are filtered out, and low-confidence leads go into hold.
Quality traffic is the best strategy
Clean, interested traffic consistently passes the checks and leads to fewer refunds. Inflation, incentivized and bot traffic is recognized and results in hold, flags and frozen accruals — it does not pay off in the long run.
Frequently asked questions
Is KYC mandatory to start earning?
No. Registration, working with offers and accumulating commission do not require KYC. It may be needed only at the withdrawal stage, if it is enabled for your case.
Why did my conversion go to review?
An automatic anti-fraud check fired. If the conversion is legitimate, it is confirmed after the check. More details — Troubleshooting.
I reached the link limit — what do I do?
Do not create new links for the same offer; instead use the sub_id parameters of an existing link to split traffic channels. This is more flexible and does not hit the limit.
