TL;DR

Minimum deposit: 1,000 KTK (about 1,500 FCFA, 2.30 EUR, or 2.50 USD). Maximum without advanced KYC: 5,000,000 KTK per day. Beyond that, additional identity verification is required. From 10 million KTK cumulative over 30 days, proof of source of funds is required.

Horizontal visual scale running from 1,000 KTK to 20,000,000 KTK, with markers at 5M (KYC threshold), 10M (source-of-funds verification) and 20M (Institutional limit). The zones are colored in a subtle gradient from light gray (free zone) to dark KTK green (Institutional zone).

The minimum: 1,000 KTK

This is the entry point. Deliberately low so everyone can try Ktkarena without a significant initial investment.

1,000 KTK ≈ 1,500 FCFA ≈ 2.30 EUR ≈ 2.50 USD ≈ 2.50 USDC (at the current rate).

At this amount, you can already place a bet in the Discovery tier. Learn more about stake tiers.

The maximum without advanced KYC: 5,000,000 KTK per day

This is our light identity verification threshold, in line with our anti-money-laundering obligations. As long as your cumulative deposits stay below this threshold over 24 hours, no additional documents are requested.

Beyond that: progressive KYC

From 5,000,000 KTK in deposits within a single day, we ask you for:

  1. An official ID document (passport, national ID card, driver's license).
  2. A proof of address less than 3 months old.
  3. A verification selfie (photo of you holding your ID document).

From 10,000,000 KTK cumulative over 30 days, we additionally ask for:

  • A proof of source of funds (pay slips, tax return, bank statement).

Why these thresholds. Ktkarena is a financial platform. As such, we are bound by CEMAC and international regulations against money laundering and terrorism financing. These thresholds are standard in the industry - Stripe, PayPal, Mobile Money, and Wise use similar or lower thresholds.

Above 20 million: the Institutional tier

At this level, we are dealing with amounts that require specific oversight. If you want to stake above 20 million KTK, contact our Institutional team directly to set up a dedicated account at partnerships@ktkarena.com.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Yes, once validated, you never need to do it again. If your documents expire (passport, proof of address), we will ask you to update them.

Between 4 hours and 48 hours depending on the volume of requests. Most are processed in less than a day.

You can keep using Ktkarena with a balance below the thresholds. If you want to go beyond them, deposits will be blocked until validation. Deposits already made stay in your account and remain usable without restriction.
