Full-Spectrum Business Verification for Confident Decisions
Assess businesses with verified registry data, ownership intelligence, document-backed evidence, and audit-ready records: all in one KYB verification framework.
Verification at Global Scale
One Verification. Every Layer of the Business
The Difference Is in the Depth
Registry-sourced company data, fetched registry reports, document authenticity, ownership structure, and UBO verification outcomes consolidate into a single report per entity. One contract, one audit trail, one evidence chain, defensible across 250+ markets.
Configure verification depth per risk tier on one platform. Quick KYB in under 15 seconds. Enhanced KYB in 1–3 business days. Document-based verification when policy requires.
Verify the company, identify UBOs from official registries or business documents, surface ownership structure, and verify the people behind the business on the same platform. Multi-person invites consolidate outcomes into one company-level record.

Where It Fits
Built for Different Business Needs
Sellers Verified, Listings Cleared
Enabling seller signups, raising listing limits, and approving payouts without business verification invites fraud and disputes. Shufti Business Verification runs Quick KYB on the bulk of low-risk volume and Enhanced KYB on higher-value listings and cross-border sellers.
Don't just take our word for it, hear from our customers
The Confidence Our Clients Share
The future of digital identity is defined by trust, interoperability, and regulatory alignment, so our partnership with Shufti reinforces DevCode Identity's commitment to supporting our global customers with the most secure, best-in-class, complaints identity verification solutions available today.
Combining our Conversion Driven Compliance Orchestration Platform with Shufti's global KYC and IDV capabilities allows our customers not only to navigate complex regulatory demands but also to maintain a seamless customer onboarding experience with the highest achievable conversion rates.
Shufti gives us verification journeys we can trust across every market we serve. The ability to route players through passive database checks, eID authentication, and full biometric liveness — all behind one API — has reshaped how we think about onboarding compliance.
Their team acts like an extension of ours. When regulators added new requirements across two European markets, Shufti’s journey builder let us adapt in days, not months.
FXBO customers demand speed without compromising AML rigour. Shufti’s eIDV fits exactly there — high-assurance verification for large deposits, invisible background checks for everything else, and one compliance trail across the board.
Integration took a single sprint. The SDK handled the full journey, so our product team stayed focused on trading features instead of building KYC screens.
As a regulated European payments platform, we need identity verification that meets eIDAS 2.0 and AMLD6 without multi-vendor stitching. Shufti delivers both — native eID authentication for high-assurance markets and docless database checks where eIDs don’t reach.
One contract, one audit log. That changes the compliance conversation entirely.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Business Verification (KYB) and KYC?
KYC verifies an individual person. Business Verification (KYB) verifies a business entity, its registration status, its directors, and its ultimate beneficial owners. Most regulated firms run both: KYB to confirm the business counterparty, KYC to confirm the individuals representing or owning it. On Shufti, KYB and KYC sit on the same platform and resolve into one consolidated record per company.
What happens in markets where registries are limited or absent?
Shufti runs authoritative registry verification where supported and falls back to document-led verification plus UBO identity verification where registry data is limited, partial, or absent. The fallback mechanism is part of the platform, not a separate product. Onboarding stays live in markets across the long tail.
How are Quick KYB and Enhanced KYB different?
Quick KYB takes two inputs (company name or registration number plus country) and returns a real-time registry lookup in under 15 seconds for baseline entity confirmation. Enhanced KYB without documents adds extended records, including paid records where applicable, and surfaces ownership and corporate-structure signals over 1–3 business days. Enhanced KYB document-based adds OCR extraction, document authenticity, tamper detection, and registry cross-match, and returns an evidence-grade report with authenticity status.
How does Shufti calculate the 99% match accuracy figure?
The figure reflects the rate at which Quick KYB returns a confirmed entity match against the authoritative registry source for the submitted business identifier within the supported coverage set. Methodology, sample size, and bias-mitigation programme are documented in the methodology note available on request.
How often is registry data refreshed and how is upstream integrity maintained?
Registry data is sourced through real-time calls to authoritative business registries at the moment of each verification request. The verification result reflects the registry state at lookup time. For periodic re-verification, configurable cadence is supported with trigger conditions including jurisdictional change, ownership change, and threshold breach.
How does regional accuracy vary, and how is bias mitigated?
Match accuracy varies by registry quality, completeness, and jurisdictional coverage. Markets with mature centralised registries (EU, UK, US states, Singapore, Australia, Hong Kong) carry higher first-pass match rates than markets with paid-only or partial registry access. Where authoritative registry verification is limited, the fallback mechanism (document-led plus UBO identity) compensates. Demographic and regional bias mitigation is part of the published verification methodology.
Can Business Verification run on-premises or in a private cloud?
Registry-bound verification (Quick KYB and the registry-lookup leg of Enhanced KYB) runs through regional cloud processing across EU, UK, US, APAC, and MENA, because the verification depends on real-time calls to external authoritative registries. First-party modules (document authenticity, OCR, UBO biometric verification, journey orchestration) support private-cloud deployment for regulated environments where required, scoped to those modules. The deployment posture is documented per module rather than per product.
How does Shufti align with AMLD6 and the UK ECCTA?
AMLD6 takes effect through national transposition with a deadline of July 2027 and strengthens ultimate-beneficial-ownership transparency obligations. The UK Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act 2023 carries equivalent UBO identity-verification reforms through Companies House from 2024–25. Shufti supports authoritative registry verification, document-backed evidence retention, and UBO identity verification at the substantial-assurance threshold both regimes expect for remote onboarding. Customer firms attain the assurance level when the configuration matches the regulatory requirement; Shufti supports that configuration.
How does Shufti handle multi-vendor consolidation?
Compliance teams running registry verification, document authentication, and UBO identity verification through three vendors carry three contracts, three audit trails, and three failure surfaces. Shufti runs all three on one platform with one contract, one API surface, one Backoffice, and one consolidated report per company. Migration support and parallel-run windows are available for teams switching from a multi-vendor stack.
What ownership-chain depth and threshold does the UBO graph support?
The platform traverses multiple holding-company layers and surfaces beneficial owners against the threshold percentage configured per jurisdiction. Default thresholds align with regulator-set rates (typically 25% for most jurisdictions, with lower thresholds where the regulator requires). Multi-person invite flow routes verification links to identified UBOs and directors; outcomes consolidate into one company-level record.
