Vendor KYC Policy
Last Updated: [18 Nov 2025]
Vendors must complete a KYC process to ensure trust and safety on the Palenque marketplace. This policy explains the required documents and the verification workflow.
1. Who this applies to
All vendors (market stall owners, retailers, suppliers) registering to sell on Palenque.
2. Required Documents
- Government-issued ID (owner/operator)
- Store address and contact information
- Photograph of the stall or shop front
- Business permit (if applicable or requested by local law)
- Bank account details for payouts
3. Verification Steps
- Vendor submits details in the vendor registration form.
- Automated checks validate required fields.
- Manual review by Palenque operations (photo verification, address check).
- Approved vendors receive shop activation and onboarding materials.
4. Quality & Compliance Audits
Palenque may perform random or scheduled audits to ensure vendors follow hygiene, packaging, and quality standards. Vendors who fail audits may be suspended.
