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 are identity methods?
Identity methods are the different ways a business can verify a user's identity. These include physical ID documents, doc-less eIDV, NFC chip verification, biometric checks, government eIDs, digital wallets, and identity-linked signing workflows. Different methods carry different assurance levels and are suited to different risk contexts.
What is the difference between document and non-document verification?
Document verification asks users to submit a government-issued ID such as a passport, national ID card, or driver licence. Non-document verification, also called doc-less eIDV, checks identity using trusted data sources without requiring a document upload. Both methods can be combined in risk-based orchestration workflows.
What is NFC chip verification?
NFC chip verification reads encrypted chip data from supported identity documents such as ePassports or NFC-enabled national IDs. Shufti's NFC verification includes BAC/PACE secure channel establishment, MRZ cross-checking, and chip biometric comparison, validating the credential beyond what OCR or visual inspection alone can confirm.
How does biometric step-up verification work?
Biometric step-up adds face matching and iBeta-certified liveness detection to a verification journey. It confirms that the person presenting the identity is real and matches the verified document or identity record. It can be added to document, eIDV, or NFC chip journeys based on risk level and compliance requirement.
What is EUDI Wallet readiness?
EUDI Wallet readiness means preparing identity workflows for European Digital Identity Wallet models under eIDAS 2.0. Shufti helps teams build adaptable identity workflows as EUDI Wallet rollout progresses across EU member states. Use "readiness" framing; do not claim certification unless Product, Legal, and Compliance confirm.
Does Shufti support Qualified Electronic Signatures?
Shufti supports the identity verification and assurance layer required for eIDAS-aligned signing journeys, including document checks, biometric step-up, and NFC chip validation. Teams building QES workflows can use Shufti to establish the verified identity record required before a signature is applied. Do not claim native QES issuance without internal review.
How does identity orchestration improve onboarding?
Orchestration routes users through the most appropriate method based on risk level, market coverage, and compliance requirements. A low-risk user starts with eIDV (under 3 seconds). A regulated KYC flow uses document verification (under 15 seconds). High-assurance flows add NFC chips and biometrics. One platform handles all paths with a single audit trail.
What is the difference between eIDAS 1.0 and eIDAS 2.0 for identity verification?
eIDAS 1.0 established mutual recognition of national eID schemes across EU member states. eIDAS 2.0 introduces the EUDI Wallet, a digital identity wallet all EU citizens and residents must be offered, and expands Qualified Electronic Signature requirements. Identity verification under eIDAS 2.0 must meet higher assurance levels to support QES and wallet-based flows.
