This guide will walk you through the process of verifying a trust account on Digital Surge. In just a few steps, you’ll be ready to start trading with your verified trust crypto trading account.


Step 1: Create Your Account

  • Head to the Sign-Up page.

  • Enter your email address and password.

  • Click ‘Create Your Account’.


Step 2: Confirm Your Email

  • Navigate to your Dashboard (your account homepage).

  • Confirm your email address by clicking the verification link sent to your email.


Step 3: Select Account Type

  • On your dashboard, select the account type you want to set up.

  • Choose ‘Trust’ as your account type.

  • You will then be prompted to verify your mobile number.


Step 4: Enter Trust Details

  • Input the name of your Trust and the registered address.


Step 5: Upload Trust Deed

  • Upload a copy of the full Trust Deed.

    • Note: The Trust Deed is typically around 60 pages and must show the trustees and members.


Step 6: Verify Trustees

  1. For Individual Trustees

    • Enter the trustee’s name exactly as it appears in the Trust Deed.

  2. For Corporate Trustees

    • Enter the business name and ACN/ABN of the corporate trustee.

    • Upload an ASIC company extract for the corporate trustee.

      • Tip: If you don’t have an ASIC extract, you can purchase one for $9 by entering your ABN/ACN here. The extract will be emailed to you as a PDF for upload.


Step 7: Upload Required Documents

For each trustee and member of the trust, upload the following:

  • Valid ID (passport or driver’s licence)

  • Selfie with a Handwritten Note:

    • The note must read "Digital Surge" and include today’s date.

  • Current Residential Address


Step 8: Add Additional Members (if needed)

  • Add any other members or beneficiaries of the trust as required.

  • If all members and trustees have been added, click ‘Finish’ to complete the verification process.


Step 9: Submission Confirmation

  • You’ll see a confirmation message indicating that your application has been submitted.

  • Trust account verification is typically completed within 24 hours.


Next Steps
