Initial status of the application. Always "pending_review" immediately after submission.

What happens next

After you submit:

Your application enters pending_review status and is queued for review.
Thiqwave’s compliance team reviews your documents within 1–3 business days.
If additional information is needed, your status changes to more_information_required and you receive a webhook with details of what to provide.
Once approved, your account status moves to approved and you can start processing live transactions.

Subscribe to the compliance.status_updated webhook event to receive real-time notifications instead of polling GET /v1/compliance/:id.
