Recover Email Address

If you cannot access your account, contact support.

  • A clear photo of your national ID

  • A selfie holding your ID

After review, the team may call your registered phone number within 2 working days to complete verification.


Change Phone Number Within 30 Days

If you need to update your phone number and it has been less than 30 days since your last change, our team must manually review your request for security purposes.

To proceed, submit one of the following proofs of ownership:

  • Official Bill: A recent bill showing your name and number, issued by a telecom provider.

  • Ownership Contract: A phone line contract or mobile subscription agreement.

  • Call Log: A verified log or screenshot showing the number is currently in use.

Once submitted, our team will review your documents and confirm the update. To keep your account secure, transfers in and out of your wallet will be paused for 4 hours after the change is complete.


Update Country of Residency

If you have moved to another country, your residency details must be updated through our support team, as this feature is not currently available in-app.

To request an update, provide the documents based on your situation:

  • Returning to your home country: A valid national ID or passport from that country.

  • Moving to a new country: A valid residency visa or permit issued by your new country of residence and proof of address.

    • Proof of Address: A recent utility bill (electricity, water, or gas), rental lease or agreement, or a bank statement clearly showing your name and new address.

  • Egyptian Returnees: If you are an Egyptian citizen moving back to Egypt with a valid Egyptian National ID verified on your Thndr account, a separate Proof of Address (POA) is not required, as your address is verified via your National ID. You must still contact support to inform us of your move and request the profile update.

⚠️ Important: To be accepted, all documents must be issued within the last 6 months and clearly display your full name and current address.


Update ‘My Documents’

If a document has expired:

  1. Open My Hub

  2. Go to My Documents

  3. Find the expired document

  4. Tap Add

  5. Capture and submit the new document

Our team will review your updated document, and you’ll be notified once approved.

⚠️ Important: You have a 30-day window after a document has expired to upload a replacement before account activities are restricted. Updating early is recommended.

If you live abroad and cannot renew your national ID:

If you are Egyptian and living abroad and are unable to renew your national ID, you can submit alternative documents through our support team. Contact us through the in-app chat and provide:

  • Passport

  • Residency Card from your country of residence

Our team will review your documents and update your account accordingly.


Submit Unlisted Documents

If you need to add or update a document that isn’t listed under ‘My Documents’, please submit it directly to our support team via the in-app chat for manual review.

💡 Tip: Ensure any document you submit is clear, valid, and shows all four corners of the page to avoid delays in processing.

  • Place orders

  • Access certain app features

  • Complete sensitive account actions
