Umm. I am not sure what’s happening here. It could be because you’re using a VPN. Brave highly discourages using one, especially if you are enrolled in to rewards. VPNs cause conflicts and could result into getting your rewards profile flagged.
Did you do your Uphold verification using documents from other region than Hong Kong ?
If so, and that region is not listed here, then you will get the specified error.

Hi, no I definitely used my HK documents to verify with Upload,

I’m not on VPN when trying to link (U.S. IP). I tried linking with HK (vpn) IP - didn’t work. I’ve contacted Uphold before they said everything’s good on their end, and to contact Brave instead.

KYC was done with HK docs, right ?
Cause Address is pretty easy fake…

Yes, it’s been a while so I don’t remember which, but I definitely either used my HKSAR passport or HKID card.

Okay. If that’s the case, I will suggest raising a ticket here.

Do note, it is still Sunday in the USA, so it could be a while till someone gets back to you.
