FAQ on AML/KYC API Documentation

What is a KYC API and how does it work?

A KYC (Know Your Customer) API is a programming interface that automates the customer identity verification process. Our API analyzes identity documents via OCR, verifies authenticity through facial biometrics, performs AML screening against sanctions lists, and generates a complete compliance report in seconds.

How does the AML API help with anti-money laundering compliance?

The AML API performs automatic screening against all international sanctions lists (OFAC, UN, EU), verifies PEP (Politically Exposed Persons) status, analyzes negative media, and continuously monitors transactions. It generates real-time alerts and SAR reports compliant with FINMA regulations.

What data is required for the KYC process?

Minimum required data includes: full name (first name, last name), date of birth, phone number, identity document (passport, ID card), customer selfie, and residential address. Additional data may be required depending on the level of due diligence requested.

How to easily integrate your KYC API?

Integration is done in 3 steps: 1) Account creation and API key retrieval, 2) Testing in sandbox environment with our interactive documentation, 3) Production deployment. We provide SDKs for all popular languages and 24/7 technical support.

What is the average latency of your APIs?

Our API latency is optimized for ultra-fast response. For complete verification (document + selfie + AML screening), results are available in near real-time. For AML screening alone, response is instantaneous. Our Swiss servers guarantee optimal performance for Europe.

What languages and jurisdictions are supported?

We support numerous languages for OCR and cover most countries worldwide with a wide variety of document types. Jurisdictions include Switzerland, EU, United States, Canada, Asia-Pacific, and Africa with particular expertise in FINMA and AMLD regulations.

How does the KYC API handle risks and continuous monitoring?

Our API uses an AI-based risk scoring system that continuously analyzes customer behavior. It performs 24/7 monitoring of sanctions lists, detects PEP status changes, analyzes suspicious transaction patterns, and generates automatic alerts with action recommendations.

How to automatically update regulatory rules?

Our compliance team permanently monitors FATF, FINMA, AMLD6, and other authority regulatory developments. Updates are deployed automatically without service interruption. You receive notifications of major changes with detailed documentation.
