Last Updated

January 1, 2023

To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person opening an account. That means before you open an account, you’ll need to provide details about yourself and any controlling shareholders, including name, address, date of birth, taxpayer identification number, SSN/EIN, and/or any other documentation that helps Mercury verify identities. We also may ask to see documentation verifying your identity, such as an unexpired driver’s license or passport or, in the case of a business, a certified copy of articles of incorporation and/or a government-issued business license, authorized signers, account owners, and your officers, directors, beneficial owners, controlling shareholders and others.
