Terms of Service Review
DFX is a non-custodial, Swiss-regulated fiat-crypto bridge. It offers limit-based trading without initial KYC but triggers strict verification for high volumes or flagged behavioral anomalies.
Behavioral monitoring
The platform actively monitors user behavior to detect anomalies and irregularities, heavily tracking activities like simultaneous buying and selling.
Automated KYC triggers
Exceeding volume limits or triggering anti-money laundering (AML) controls forces a mandatory KYC process. If not completed within 7 days, funds are reversed.
Intrusive data collection
At higher KYC tiers, users must submit highly invasive data, including proof of financial background, income, assets, and detailed business activities.
Geographic exclusions
Due to AML compliance, DFX outright bans users from jurisdictions classified as high-risk by the FATF.
Proof of origin
Users' connected banks or DFX itself may require proof of origin of funds for crypto sales to fiat, necessitating additional documentation.
Non-custodial design
DFX operates strictly as a non-custodial bridge, meaning purchased funds are transferred directly to your personal wallet where you hold the private keys.
