To comply with anti-money-laundering (AML) and know-your-customer (KYC) obligations, betrup requires you to submit a copy of a valid government-issued identity document (CNIC, passport, or driver's licence) and, in some cases, proof of address or source of funds documentation. This data is processed solely for verification purposes.

2.3 Financial Data. betrup collects transaction records associated with your account, including deposit amounts, withdrawal requests, payment method references (e.g., JazzCash account number, EasyPaisa wallet ID, HBL, UBL, or Meezan Bank details), and transaction timestamps. betrup does not store full card numbers or banking passwords.

05 Legal Basis for Processing

5.1 Contract Performance.
