Beginning of 2020, Skrill introduced a new verification protocol. To use the Skrill account to its full potential, including receiving funds, customers have to verify their accounts.
In 2020, the Skrill verification procedure is fully automized and includes face verification with a webcam. This makes the verification smoother, but also safer for users.

In November, Skrill will introduce new customer levels based on the verification level of their account.
For a Skriller Verified status, users need to make one or more deposits, go through the verification process, and download the Skrill app on their mobile.

All Skriller Verified accounts will have free person to person money transfers.
The new customer levels step into effect on November 3, 2020.
The biggest service change in 2020 is the discontinuation of person to person money transfers in India and Bangladesh.
