Why Leading Enterprises Trust Shufti

Global Documents, any Language

Extract addresses from address-bearing documents across formats, layouts, scripts in any language and operate confidently across 250+ countries and territories.

Higher Pass Rates, Fewer Drop-offs

Match addresses even when users type them differently (abbreviations, formatting, minor typos). We identify the user’s address (not issuer/branch addresses), so good users don’t fail on layout noise.

Risk-Based Controls That Reduce Manual Review

Verify addresses with flexible methods, documents where required, validation where useful, and risk signals when it matters. Apply document integrity checks, policy rules (such as recency/issue-date thresholds) to automatically surface high-risk cases.

Run the right address check for the right user

One Suite, Four Solutions

Proof of Address

Verify residency from address verification documents in a way that works across formats and languages, without brittle templates.

Shufti extracts the customer’s address not issuer/branch details, checks document integrity signals, and returns an audit-ready result you can trust for regulated flows.

Docless Address Verification

Confirm an address in seconds without asking users to upload documents, ideal for low-risk tiers and high-volume onboarding.

Use it as a fast first pass and automatically step up to PoA when confidence is low, coverage is limited, or risk signals indicate a mismatch.

Address Validation

Turn messy, free-form address input into clean, structured fields and catch incomplete or inconsistent addresses before they hit downstream systems.

Geolocation & Risk Signals

Add session context to address checks by flagging location anomalies and tools like VPN/proxy that often correlate with evasion and abuse.

Run it silently as a risk input or use it as a step-up trigger to keep conversion high while enforcing geo policies.

Stronger Evidence, Fewer Manual Checks

Document Intelligence

When Proof of Address is a bank statement (or similar), reuse the same document to power affordability/vulnerability checks, delivering explainable risk outcomes with audit-ready reporting and review routing, without adding extra user friction.

Document Integrity Checks

Flags likely manipulation signals (e.g., edited PDFs, screenshots, suspicious artifacts) so clean-looking fakes don’t slip through.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the difference between Proof of Address and Address Validation?

Proof of Address verifies the document is genuine and matches the user’s declared address, whereas Address Validation checks global databases in real time to confirm the address physically exists and is a deliverable location.

Can I verify an address without asking users to upload documents?

Yes, Docless Address Verification confirms residency using trusted data sources in supported markets in under 3 seconds, and you can automatically step up to document-based Proof of Address when coverage or confidence is low.

How do you reduce drop-offs during onboarding?

Use a cascading workflow: start with docless checks for speed, then request a document only for edge cases or higher-risk users so most users complete verification without friction.

What documents do you support for Proof of Address?

We support any address-bearing documents (e.g., utility bills, bank statements, tax letters, government correspondence) across global languages and formats without relying on brittle, country-by-country templates.

How do you catch forged or tampered Proof of Address documents?

Our forensic checks look for manipulation signals (e.g., pixel edits, suspicious artifacts, metadata inconsistencies) and validate extracted data against the user’s input to reduce “clean-looking” fraud.

What does the Geolocation Risk Signal do?

It adds session context by flagging location anomalies and spoofing tools like VPN/proxy helping you detect jurisdiction evasion, and higher-risk behavior without adding user steps.

How do we build "Cascading Workflows" without heavy coding?

Our no-code Journey Builder lets you drag and drop logic to orchestrate the suite. You can configure the system to attempt a Docless check first and auto-route to Document Proof of Address if it fails, all from the dashboard without rewriting code.

Can we customize rules for compliance and risk appetite?

Yes. Configure policy controls like document recency, accepted document types, and matching strictness (including multi-source logic for docless checks) to align with your compliance requirements and fraud strategy.

Stop Choosing Between Conversion and Compliance

You don’t need just an address checker. You need an intelligent verification suite that adapts to your user’s risk profile. Stop losing money to fraud and failed deliveries today.
