For security, new blockchain addresses need to be whitelisted before tokens can be transferred to them.
For digital asset platform addresses (custodial address), you are required to whitelist the address before initiating any blockchain transfers. You need to submit a whitelisting request which will be reviewed.
For personal address (non-custodial address), the whitelisting process requires you to submit a request first and transfer a small amount of XSGD out to that address and transfer a small amount (>1 XSGD) back. This process demonstrates your ownership and control over that address.
