Passbase

Passbase is a crypto-native KYC, KYB and reusable on-chain profile platform for DeFi, centralized exchanges, launchpads and games. Its listing names Parallel Markets, Civic and Blockpass, and it is based in Hong Kong and Edinburgh. It has operated since 2017.

Products Listed products are Crypto KYC and AML, On-chain KYC Attestations, Unhosted Wallet Verification, and KYB for Web3 Projects. The company describes reusable Web3 KYC with a soulbound token, linking a verified passport to a user's crypto wallet, so the user does not repeat verification with every protocol.

Customers Target verticals are crypto exchanges, DeFi, launchpads, Web3 gaming and RWA tokenization. Coverage is described as global.

Pricing Passbase is pay-as-you-go from $1 per check, with no subscription fee. That model suits early-stage projects with unpredictable verification volume. Fees for KYB, AML screening and wallet verification, and the legal basis for storing on-chain attestations in different jurisdictions, are not detailed and should be clarified with the company.
