Elevate Pay For GetOnTop Users: Guide to Documents and Setup

If you’re freelancing on Ontop and want to get paid via Elevate Pay, you’ll need to complete verification first. This process helps protect your account and ensures compliance with financial regulations.

In this guide, we’ll walk you through the required documents step by step. Whether you’re based in Pakistan, Bangladesh, or Egypt, this article will help you upload the right files and avoid delays.

While Ontop manages your projects, clients, and payouts, Elevate Pay requires a separate verification step. Until you complete this, you won’t be able to receive payments through Elevate Pay.

What Do You Need to Provide?

To activate your Elevate Pay account, you must upload three types of documents:

1. Proof of Income

2. Proof of Address

3. Proof of Identity

The type of ID may vary depending on your country, but the overall process is the same.

Document Overview for Ontop Users

What Makes a Document Acceptable?

For smooth verification:

• Your name and address must be clearly visible.

• Bank statements and bills must be no older than 90 days.

• Upload original files (PDF or scans) screenshots are not accepted.

• Your ID must be valid (not expired) and match your Ontop profile information.

What Is “Proof of Income” on Ontop?

When you accept work through Ontop, you’ll have either a contract or an invoice that outlines the project details and payment terms. This contract or invoice will serve as your official proof of income for Elevate Pay.

You can access and download these documents from your Ontop dashboard under the Projects → Contracts section.

Your proof of income should ideally show:

• Your name

• Client’s name or company
