# Connect Wallet and KYC

Upon logging in, Cloud Hosts need to connect a wallet and complete KYC verification. Wallet is mandatory before onboarding any GPUs, while successful KYC verification is required for claiming and withdrawing any amount.

### Connect Wallet

* Cloud Hosts must connect a crypto wallet upon logging in, which is shared among all members of the [Cloud Host Team](/aethir-cloud/aethir-cloud-host/cloud-host-portal-guide/account-settings.md#team-management).
* Users can change the wallet later via the **Settings** page or by clicking the **avatar** in the top-right corner of any page.

**Multi-Signature Wallet**

If a multi-signature wallet is used, a banner will indicate pending signatures until all required signatures are received.

### KYC Verification

To comply with AML (Anti-Money Laundering) regulations, all users must complete KYC verification before they can claim or withdraw ATH earned through our products.

#### Steps to Complete KYC

1. Click the **Complete KYC Now** button on the banner.
2. Follow the instructions in the **KYC panel**.
3. To review KYC status, visit the **Settings** page or click the **avatar** in the top-right corner of any page.
