# New tier for business customer submission

## Release date

September 12th, 2025

## Release Type:

Informational, no action required from platforms

## Summary

zeroHash now allows **approved** Platforms to onboard business customers with reduced API field requirements, requiring fewer data points and less information than traditional full KYB onboarding.

**NOTE:** These entities are considered non-customers of zerohash, do not hold accounts with us or take ownership of the funds at any point in the flow. However, zerohash still needs basic information in order to carry out our own diligence requirements.

Your Platform must be approved by our Legal and Compliance department before using this new feature. Get in touch with your zerohash rep to begin this process, if interested.

Example [POST /participants/entity/new](https://docs.zerohash.com/reference/post_participants-entity-new) request with reduced API field requirements:
