KYC: Who Needs It and How to Complete It

Written by Irsyad

What Requires Whitelisting

Minting and redemption through Theo's contracts requires a whitelisted wallet:

  • thUSD — Whitelisting required to mint 1:1 with USDC/USDT and redeem.

  • thBILL — Whitelisting required (KYC for individuals, KYB for institutions) to mint and redeem via the ULTRA fund.

  • thGOLD — Whitelisting required. Institutional and accredited investors only.

Non-whitelisted wallets will see a disabled state on the mint page.

What Does NOT Require Whitelisting

  • Buying or selling thUSD or thBILL on secondary markets (Uniswap v4, Morpho, Pendle, etc.)

  • Staking thUSD into sthUSD

  • Unstaking sthUSD back to thUSD

  • Bridging tokens across chains

  • Holding any Theo token

How to Get Whitelisted

There is no self-serve KYC flow on the Theo app. To request whitelisting for minting and redemption, contact the Theo sales team via the "Get in Touch" link on theo.xyz.

Whitelisting is wallet-specific. A different wallet requires a separate request. While waiting for approval, you can buy and stake Theo tokens on secondary markets without restriction.
