Fortress Core Connect and Shufti Partner to Deliver Scalable AML/KYC Infrastructure for Regulated White Label Brokerages

Johannesburg – 15 July 2025 – Fortress Core Connect, a fast-growing fintech and liquidity infrastructure provider, has entered into a strategic partnership with leading global identity verification platform Shufti. This move brings Fortress Core’s White Label (WL) clients embedded access to AI-powered eKYC and AML screening, drastically improving onboarding speed, compliance reliability, and operational scalability across global markets.

As part of this collaboration, Shufti’s full suite of identity verification capabilities – including biometric facial recognition, document authentication, and full-spectrum AML screening across sanctions, PEPs, watchlists and adverse media – will be seamlessly integrated into Fortress Core’s turnkey white label infrastructure. This empowers Fortress Core’s clients to build and scale compliant, secure financial services from day one.

The collaboration marks a significant milestone for both companies. Fortress Core continues its momentum following the acquisition of a Category 1 FSP license in South Africa and strategic integrations with platforms like Fair Trading Technology and Centroid. Meanwhile, Shufti reinforces its commitment to enabling global digital trust, with services spanning 240+ countries and territories, and support in over 150 languages.


Together, Fortress Core and Shufti offer a powerful solution set that unites compliance, technology, and market access – helping clients navigate complex regulatory environments, mitigate risk, and build customer trust in a digital-first economy.
