Secure, verify, and onboard users with confidence

The Identity & KYC services streamline user authentication and regulatory checks by linking directly with trusted financial institutions. Leveraging open banking and verified bank account data, this solution ensures identity confirmation, account ownership validation, and consent-driven onboarding—all while enhancing the user experience. Businesses can meet AML and KYC obligations with ease, reduce fraud risk, and accelerate customer onboarding using bank-verified identity intelligence. Each component is designed for compliance, efficiency, and seamless integration into digital journeys across fintech, banking, and regulated industries.
Bank-Based Identity Verification

Bank-Based Identity Verification

Verify real identities using trusted banking credentials for seamless onboarding and fraud prevention.

Bank-Based Identity Verification allows organisations to confirm a user’s legal identity directly from their bank. By leveraging Open Banking APIs, this service accesses bank-validated identity details such as full name, date of birth, and address without relying on document uploads. This real-time verification method is faster, safer, and harder to fake than traditional ID scans, helping institutions comply with KYC regulations while reducing drop-offs during sign-up. It is particularly useful for digital lenders, wealthtech apps, gig economy platforms, and challenger banks that need instant, high-trust verification. The service eliminates manual errors, speeds up customer onboarding, and ensures that verified data originates from a regulated institution.

Bank-Based Identity Verification Features:

Retrieval of full legal name, DOB, and address via bank API

Multi-bank identity cross-check for fraud prevention

Document-free onboarding support

Name matching logic for identity fraud detection

Watchlist and PEP/Sanctions integration

Instant identity validation reports

Account Ownership Confirmation

Account Ownership Confirmation

Ensure the user truly owns the bank account used for payments or verification.

Account Ownership Confirmation verifies that the person sharing banking data is the true owner of the account in question. It links Open Banking credentials to verified personal information, matching names between the account and the requestor. This is especially vital for preventing payment fraud, first-party chargebacks, and identity misuse in digital onboarding, payout systems, or BNPL credit checks. It adds an extra layer of trust to account-based services and supports regulatory requirements like Strong Customer Authentication (SCA). Businesses can easily embed this feature into their app workflows, automating trust without disrupting the user experience.

Consent Flow Customisation

Consent Flow Customisation

Design trusted, branded consent journeys that drive user confidence and increase conversion.
