Polygon OMS supports customers and transactions in most jurisdictions. The jurisdictions listed below are prohibited: associated transactions and customers are blocked.

Residency requirements

Using US bank rails does not require US residency or a US entity. Foreign entities onboard directly through KYB and receive US bank rails in their own legal name.
