How to turn OFF REWARDS and UNCONNECT THE UPHOLD ACCOUNT

Briefly describe your issue:

After almost three years, Uphold demand i verify my account by asking me personal documents, I refuse to do this since I only use Uphold to hold BAT from Brave, since the amount of money i got in the past THREE YEARS its only around 10 bucks i don’t give a damn (if someone knows a way to either empty or transfer the 10 bucks from my account please feel free to tell me), I want to opt out of BRAVE REWARDS and UNCONNECT the Uphold account associated so UPHOLD don’t even get the fractions of a cent BRAVE gives every month.

But after searching around the browser settings I CANT FIND THE OPTION TO DO SO.

What Operating System and Brave version are you using? (Menu --> About Brave)

Windows 10

Brave 1.87.192 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Who is your verified custodian? (Uphold/Gemini/bitFlyer)

Indeed!
Uphold is the most annoying app out there. Requires us to take a selfie AND with access to the microphone(!) WHY??

Would be awesome if we had other options instead of that app.

There is a self-custody option available. https://support.brave.app/hc/en-us/articles/41704970565261-How-do-I-connect-Brave-Rewards-to-a-self-custody-wallet
