Onboarding
Onboard Customers in Seconds, Stay Compliant Everywhere
Shufti combines AI-powered document forensics, biometric verification, and real-time AML screening into a single onboarding flow, so you verify faster, detect fraud earlier, and meet KYC mandates across 250+ regions without adding friction.
One Platform for the Entire Onboarding Lifecycle
Adaptive Flows Cut Drop-Off
Onboarding drops when every user faces the same verification path. Shufti adapts checks in real time, letting low-risk users pass quickly while escalating high-risk profiles to enhanced due diligence.
Auto-Decisioning Clears Queues
Manual reviews slow teams down and overload analysts. Shufti converts 500+ forensic, biometric, and contextual signals into one fraud score, auto-approving safe cases and prioritizing risky ones.
Advanced Fraud Gets Blocked
Sophisticated fraud often slips through basic checks. Shufti detects fake templates, synthetic documents, compromised identities, and deepfakes selfies before fraudulent users reach account activation.

Everything You Need to Onboard With Confidence
Verify customers in seconds, not days
Combine document authentication, biometric matching, and data extraction into a single verification flow. Risk-adaptive modes route low-risk profiles through faster checks while escalating high-risk cases automatically.
-
Document Verification
Verify any government-issued document types with in-house technology that doesn’t outsource your data. From recursive OCR for non-Latin scripts to handling cropped or worn IDs, Shufti delivers high-assurance decisions in under 15 seconds.
-
Facial Biometrics
Confirm the person onboarding is the person on the document. 68-point facial landmark comparison with iBeta-certified liveness with 98.72% accuracy, 0% FAR, and catch deep fakes, printed photos, and injection attacks during the selfie step.
-
NFC Verification
For ePassport and national ID onboarding, read chip-stored data and cryptographically verify it hasn’t been altered. Cross-checks against OCR-extracted fields to flag any mismatch between what the chip says and what the document shows.
-
Address Verification
Verify proof-of-address during onboarding with OCR extraction in 150+ languages, structured field decomposition, and cross-checks against global postal databases. Geospatial distance detection flags addresses that don’t match the user’s location.
-
Age Verification
Gate age-restricted onboarding flows with document-based DOB extraction or neural-network facial estimation with 99.7% OCR accuracy.
Onboard businesses, not just individuals
Onboard corporate clients by verifying entity registration, UBO ownership chains, and director identities. Real-time registry checks across 100+ jurisdictions, escalated EDD on high-risk entities, and investor-level KYI, all in one configurable flow.
-
Business Verification
Real-time registry checks with Quick KYB. Deeper ownership and document-backed evidence with Enhanced KYB. Onboard corporate clients by verifying entity registration, UBO ownership chains, and director identities, so B2B onboarding moves from weeks of manual checks to minutes of automated verification.
-
Due Diligence
Escalate high-risk business onboarding to EDD with source-of-funds checks, adverse media screening, and corporate document authentication. Configurable risk thresholds determine which entities trigger enhanced review.
-
Investor Verification
Streamline fund subscription onboarding by combining investor KYC, entity KYB, and AML screening into a single verification flow, built for the compliance requirements fund administrators actually face.
Screen at onboarding. Monitor forever
Run identity verification, sanctions, PEP, and AML screening in one API call at onboarding. Continuous monitoring keeps the customer record under review against updated watchlist and transaction signals after the account goes live.
-
AML Screening
Screen every new customer against 215+ sanctions, PEP, and 4000+ watchlists at the point of onboarding, in the same API call as identity verification. Fuzzy matching and non-Latin transliteration reduce false negatives across global names.
-
PEP & RCA
Catch politically exposed persons and their associates during onboarding screening. Ongoing monitoring flags status changes (new appointments, sanctions additions) automatically after the customer is onboarded.
-
Sanctions
Check new customers against 200+ sanction regimes (OFAC, HMT, EU, UN, Interpol, national FIUs). 415+ risk categories. Secondary and reciprocal sanction detection.
-
Adverse Media
Screen onboarding applicants against global news sources for links to fraud, financial crime, or terrorism. NLP entity disambiguation filters out false positives from common names, so your review queue stays clean.
-
Transaction Monitoring
Start monitoring from day one. Rule-based and ML-driven pattern detection flags suspicious activity and auto-generates SARs with evidence packages, so compliance teams file reports, not build them from scratch.
Stop fraud before it enters your pipeline
Layer behavioural signals, device intelligence, and risk scoring on top of identity checks to catch fraud that document verification alone misses. Rejected verifications include visual forensic heat maps and textual evidence so analysts see why, not just that.
-
Fraud Hub
Fraud Hub helps stop risky users before they complete onboarding by checking multiple fraud signals in real time, injection attempts, device behaviour, document forensics, and biometrics. It works inside the existing verification flow, so teams can add deeper fraud detection without extra SDKs, extra API calls, or more steps for genuine users.
-
Behavioral Biometrics
Detects bots and automated onboarding attacks, and touch patterns during the verification session. Flags emulator-based submissions before the user even reaches the document step.
-
Device Fingerprinting
Identify the device onboarding each customer, manufacturer, model, OS, and software version. Flags virtual machines, spoofed attributes, and devices previously linked to fraudulent onboarding attempts.
-
1:1 Authentication
For returning users re-entering onboarding (abandoned flows, re-KYC), match a live selfie against their previously enrolled biometric. 1:N search across 10M+ records catches duplicate account creation.

Detect Every Fraud Type Targeting Your Platform
Deepfake
AI-generated faces and synthetically forged documents bypass legacy liveness checks at scale. Shufti's passive liveness & document forensics detects synthetic media before it reaches your onboarding flow.
Identity Fraud
Credential theft, blended synthetic identities, and manipulated documents exploit gaps in manual review. Shufti's layered verification surfaces fraud signals before accounts are created.
Account & Platform Abuse
Duplicate registrations, bot-driven sign-ups, and referral exploits erode platform economics. Shufti links device, identity, and behavioural signals to flag abuse rings at scale.
Transaction & Payment Fraud
False chargeback claims, money mule networks, and sanctions evasion expose your business to financial and regulatory risk. Shufti ties identity verification directly to transaction context.

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 verification checks are included in the onboarding flow?
A standard flow includes document verification, biometric face matching with liveness detection, and AML screening against sanctions, PEP, and adverse media databases. Each check is configurable, add or remove steps based on your regulatory requirements and risk appetite.
How long does a typical verification take?
Most verifications complete in under 15 seconds. Low-risk profiles routed through automated decisioning are typically processed in under 10 seconds. High-risk cases escalated to enhanced due diligence may take longer.
Which regulations does the onboarding flow help satisfy?
The flow satisfies KYC and CDD requirements under 6AMLD (EU), FinCEN CDD Rule (US), MAS Notice 626 (Singapore), AUSTRAC (Australia), and FCA guidelines (UK). Verification depth can be configured per jurisdiction.
How does Shufti detect synthetic and deep fake documents?
Multi-layer document forensics analyse template structure, font consistency, security features, and AI-generated artifact patterns. Biometric liveness detection identifies presentation attacks including deepfake selfies and injection attacks.
How long does integration take?
Most teams complete integration within 1–2 weeks. A sandbox is available on signup, and the first verification API call can be made within 4 hours. Pre-built mobile SDKs reduce development time further.
What happens when a verification fails?
Failed verifications generate a detailed reason code and confidence score. They can be auto-rejected, routed to manual review with pre-scored evidence, or escalated to enhanced due diligence. Every decision is audit-logged.
