Through this new partnership, the publishers who are able to receive payments directly to their Ethereum wallets will have the opportunity of utilizing Civic’s KYC services to not only confirm their identity in a secure and convenient manner but to also confirm that the publisher and transaction are authentic.

Through the use of Civic’s KYC services, it will be possible for Brave publishers to receive micro-payments through the browser token BAT without them having to reveal more details or personal information than is necessary for the transaction to go through.
