RebelsFunding Legal & Compliance
Anti-Money Laundering, Sanctions and Fraud Prevention Statement
RebelsFunding is a simulated Evaluation service, not a bank or broker. Program fees are payments for services, not trading deposits or investments. RIFM applies proportionate, risk-based controls to protect orders, payments, RCF onboarding, account activation and reward processing from misuse.
This statement describes the controls used by RIFM, s.r.o. in relation to registration, orders, payments, identity and residency verification, company purchases, RCF onboarding, activation and rewards.
1. Purpose and scope
1.1
RIFM applies proportionate, risk-based measures intended to reduce the risk of money laundering, terrorist financing, sanctions evasion, identity fraud, payment fraud, forged documents, chargeback abuse and misuse of the RCF onboarding, activation or reward process.
1.2
This statement applies to registration, program orders, payments, refunds, identity and residency verification, company purchases, RCF assessment and onboarding, contract signing, activation of pending RCF accounts, rewards and related security or compliance reviews.
1.3
The controls are operated by RIFM and may be supported by payment providers, Veriff, Xodo Sign, public registers, technical-service providers and authorised professional advisers.
2. Nature of the RebelsFunding business
2.1
RIFM provides simulated trading Evaluation, training and related services. Evaluation and RCF Accounts are fully simulated accounts using market quotations. RIFM does not accept customer trading deposits, hold customer capital for trading, execute customer investment orders on live markets or provide brokerage, portfolio-management or investment-advisory services.
2.2
Because customers do not operate investment accounts or deposit trading capital with RIFM, the controls focus on identity and eligibility, country and sanctions restrictions, payment and refund anomalies, ownership and use of payment methods, company verification, fraud and duplicate profiles, RCF activation and reward processing.
2.3
RIFM does not describe its process as continuous monitoring of customer investment transactions because RebelsFunding does not provide customer investment or live brokerage accounts. Orders, payments, onboarding, account use and rewards may nevertheless be reviewed when an anomaly or risk is identified.
3. Control points
1
Registration and orderCountry availability, basic jurisdiction and sanctions restrictions, account information, device or security signals and payment-provider controls may be checked. A restricted or sanctioned person may be blocked before or during payment processing.
2
Payment, refund and account activityRIFM or its providers may review payment ownership, name mismatches, third-party payments, unusual refund or chargeback activity, duplicate profiles and other fraud or security indicators.
3
After successful EvaluationA pending RCF account profile may be generated, but it remains inactive. The trader must complete Veriff and then the Xodo Sign contract package with the attached Proof of Address before RIFM can review activation.
4
Before RCF activationRIFM reviews identity, residency, company information where relevant, payment information, the contract and supporting documents. Activation occurs only after approval and the required Provider-side signatures.
5
Before a reward or when new risk appearsRIFM may repeat sanctions, identity, residency, payment, account or company checks before processing an RCF reward or whenever new information or risk justifies another review.
Approval by a payment provider, successful Evaluation, creation of a pending account profile, completion of a Veriff session or the trader's contract signature does not remove RIFM's right to conduct another review or refuse activation or cooperation where the overall risk is not acceptable.
4. Controls applied by RIFM
4.1
Identity verification: verification of the designated trader through Veriff using a supported identity document, selfie or liveness and fraud-prevention checks.
4.2
Sanctions and PEP screening: use of configured sanctions, PEP, watchlist, adverse-media or related screening tools where applicable to the person, jurisdiction and current verification workflow.
4.3
Residency verification: manual review by RIFM of an official Proof of Address issued no more than six months before submission and attached through the Xodo Sign onboarding workflow.
4.4
Company verification: review of reliable public or official registers and, where needed, company, ownership, beneficial-owner, authority, tax or registered-office documents.
4.5
Payment controls: review of payment-method ownership, name mismatches, third-party payments, provider warnings, chargebacks, refunds and other payment anomalies where justified.
4.6
Account and fraud controls: review of duplicate identities, duplicate profiles, linked accounts, false information, forged documents, impersonation, account sharing and other attempts to circumvent rules or previous decisions.
4.7
Additional evidence: where justified by the risk or a provider request, RIFM may request proof of payment-method ownership, source of funds, company ownership, tax information or another supporting document.
4.8
Human review: authorised RIFM personnel make the final onboarding and activation decision and may review a technical result or request additional verification where appropriate.
5. Examples of risk indicators
- identity, address, residency, company, contract or payment information that does not match;
- use of a payment method owned by another person without an acceptable explanation;
- a sanctions, PEP, watchlist, adverse-media or restricted-jurisdiction concern;
- altered, forged, incomplete, expired or unverifiable documents;
- multiple profiles, identities or companies apparently used to circumvent limits or previous decisions;
- unusual order, refund, chargeback, reward or account-use patterns;
- inconsistent company ownership or an unverifiable relationship between the designated trader and the company;
- refusal or failure to complete a required verification, contract step or document request; or
- information from a payment provider, verification provider, public source or competent authority that creates a reasonable concern.
This list is illustrative. RIFM may consider the full context and all available records rather than relying on one isolated indicator.
6. Actions RIFM may take
- request clarification, replacement documents or additional supporting evidence;
- require a new Veriff session or manual review;
- delay or suspend activation, a refund, a further phase, RCF onboarding, Provider-side signing or an RCF reward while a review is pending;
- restrict a payment method or require a payment method owned by the customer;
- refuse or cancel an order before activation in accordance with the Terms & Conditions;
- refuse activation of a pending RCF account, decline a reward request or terminate an existing service or cooperation where permitted by the applicable contract;
- cancel a discount, benefit, refund bonus or Credits obtained through fraud, abuse or incorrect information;
- cooperate with payment providers, verification providers, professional advisers, courts, law-enforcement bodies or competent authorities where required or permitted by law; and
- preserve relevant records where reasonably necessary for an active dispute, investigation or legal claim.
No automatic entitlement: payment acceptance, successful Evaluation, creation of a pending account profile, completed KYC or the trader's contract signature does not guarantee RCF activation, continued cooperation or payment of a reward if a review identifies an unacceptable risk or contractual breach.
7. Sanctions and restricted jurisdictions
7.1
RIFM does not intend to provide services, activate an RCF Account or make a payment where doing so would breach applicable sanctions, legal restrictions or the Provider's current jurisdiction policy.
7.2
Availability of the website, Client Zone, prices, checkout or a payment method in a country does not guarantee that an order, pending RCF account, activation or reward will be approved. Country and sanctions restrictions may change.
7.3
The current checkout, Terms & Conditions, payment-provider rules and result of the applicable review determine whether a service or cooperation is available to a specific person or company.
7.4
A potential or confirmed sanctions match may lead to immediate suspension or refusal while the information is reviewed. RIFM may request identifying information to exclude a false positive and may make legally required notifications or disclosures where applicable.
8. Records and data protection
8.1
RIFM may retain records of orders, payments, refunds, chargebacks, verification results, Veriff reports, Proof of Address, company and ownership information, signed contracts, Xodo Sign audit records, review communications and approval, activation or refusal decisions.
8.2
RIFM does not normally download or separately store raw identity-document, selfie or video files captured within the Veriff session. Veriff stores and processes its session data under the contracted configuration and its own privacy and retention terms. RIFM stores the generated report and records needed for the relevant decision on secured, access-restricted internal storage.
8.3
Records are retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for the relevant service, cooperation, security, fraud prevention, dispute resolution, legal or contractual obligation and the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
8.4
More detailed information is provided in the RebelsFunding Data Protection documentation.
9. Confidentiality of controls
9.1
RIFM may provide a practical explanation of a request or decision where appropriate. However, RIFM is not required to disclose internal risk indicators, sanctions or antifraud rules, provider configuration, algorithms, scores, thresholds, full security logs, investigation methods or other information where disclosure could weaken the controls, enable circumvention, prejudice another person or conflict with a legal obligation.
9.2
This statement does not promise that every attempted misuse will be detected. RIFM may update, replace or add reasonable controls as risks, providers, products, jurisdictions, payment methods or legal requirements change.
10. Related documents and updates
This statement is a public summary of RIFM's risk-based approach. It should be read together with the Know Your Customer (KYC) and RCF Account Activation page, Terms & Conditions, Data Protection documentation and, where applicable, the separate RCF Account Contract.
RIFM may update this statement to reflect changes to its services, risk assessment, providers, technology, payment methods, sanctions exposure or applicable law. The latest published wording applies from the effective date stated on the page.
