Common Issues Leading to Rejections and How to Resolve Them

Rejection Due to Document Issues: Make sure all documents, like passports or IDs, are clear, unobstructed, and properly aligned. Resubmit documents through the verification portal as needed, following these guidelines.

Social Media Link Verification Rejections: Make sure the links you provide are correct, accessible, and clearly connect your identity or professional work to the content. Examples include personal portfolios and professional content where you are credited. 

Automated Verification Failures: If you repeatedly face issues uploading your ID, the system may escalate to manual review. Be prepared to provide additional supporting documents when required.

Our Commitment to Security: Our thorough ID verification process is a key part of our commitment to keeping the platform secure. By taking part in this process, you help ensure the safety and integrity of the ShareGrid community.
