Identity document and selfie being checked during KYC onboarding

KYC & AML Compliance

Full-stack identity verification, from document capture to sanctions screening, in a single API.

Know Your Customer and Anti-Money Laundering compliance are non-negotiable for any business that handles financial transactions, stores sensitive data, or operates in a regulated industry. But compliance doesn't have to mean slow onboarding, fragmented vendor stacks, or black-box decisions you can't explain to auditors.

Verifa brings document verification, biometric face matching, liveness detection, AML screening, fraud signals, and case management into one platform. Every check runs on Verifa infrastructure. Your users' biometrics and documents never leave our systems, and you get full control over your verification workflows.

Whether you need to verify a single identity or screen millions of customers against global sanctions lists, Verifa gives you the tools to build compliant onboarding flows that convert.

How it works

1

Integrate

Create a session via API. Send your user to our hosted verification flow or embed via SDK. You're live in minutes, not weeks.

2

Verify

Verifa runs document checks, biometric matching, liveness detection, and AML screening — all on our infrastructure. No data leaves the platform.

3

Act

Receive results via webhook. Auto-approve, flag for review, or reject based on your policy. Every decision is logged and auditable.

Built for compliance teams

Security and data privacy are foundational to Verifa, not afterthoughts. Every piece of personally identifiable information is encrypted at the field level using AES-256-GCM, so even database access doesn't expose raw PII.

You control how long data is retained with configurable retention policies. When retention windows expire, PII is automatically purged. Full audit logs capture every action taken on every session, so you always have an evidence trail for regulators.
