# 44. Supplier history

> Submit your supplier history to support the KYC/KYB verification of your business.

## 44.1 Overview

<ResponseField>
  As part of our onboarding and risk review process, merchants are required to provide **Supplier History** to verify the legitimacy and continuity of their business operations.

  This documentation shows that your company is actively purchasing inventory or fulfilling orders through real, verifiable suppliers.\
  It also helps confirm that your **sales activity** and **supply chain** match the processing history provided during onboarding.

  Providing valid supplier history helps our compliance team confirm that your business operates transparently and reduces potential risk during acquirer review.
