Before you start

You'll need a valid ID document (passport, national ID, or driver's licence) and a working phone number. The process takes about 3 minutes. No bank account is required to open the wallet — you can fund it later via bank transfer, card, or mobile money.

Step by step

1. Download the app

CitizenWealth is available on iOS and Android. Search "CitizenWealth" in your app store, or visit citizenwealth.app/download.

2. Verify your identity

Upload a photo of your ID and take a quick selfie. Our KYC provider verifies you in under 60 seconds in most cases. We support passports and national IDs from 45+ countries.

3. Activate your currencies

Once verified, you'll see your wallet dashboard. Tap "Add Currency" to activate any of the five supported currencies:

Available Currencies
🇺🇸 US DollarUSD
🇬🇧 British PoundGBP
🇪🇺 EuroEUR
💎 USD Coin (stablecoin)USDC
💎 USDB (yield-bearing)USDB
All currencies can be activated instantly. No additional verification needed.

4. Fund your wallet

Choose your preferred funding method. Bank transfer is free. Card deposits carry a 1.5% processing fee. Mobile money is available in select markets.

5. You're live

Your wallet is ready. You can now hold, convert, send, and receive across all five currencies.
