What is a Profile Picture?

A Trades Wallet’s profile image is one of the most important means of authentication within Trades Wallet, used to confirm that the Wallet presented belongs to the Tradesperson in question.

How is a Profile Picture set?

A 'Profile Picture' can be established within Trades Wallet one of two ways: 

• Via the Self Service application
  
  
• Via the Web Admin Portal
