KYC for prop firms: providers and published prices.

Identity checks are a per-trader cost. On PropSuite, for example, the Veriff check opens when a trader passes the final phase, before a funded account. Most KYC vendors below publish a price per verification and a monthly minimum, so cost tracks how many traders reach that stage.

Disclosure: PipValley builds websites for prop firms and isn’t affiliated with the vendors on this page, except PropSuite, our labelled technology partner. Facts are from each vendor’s own pages or named press, checked 12 Oct 2026; prices are quoted as published.
