Verify, screen and monitorcustomers in Egypt
Verify passports, driver's licences and national ID cards from Egypt, read their chips over NFC, match a live selfie, then screen and monitor every customer from one platform.
Identity verification
Every check compares what your customer gave you with the document or the record, and can match a live selfie to the photo.
Passport

Driver's licence

National ID card

NFC chip verification
Our iOS and Android SDKs read the chip inside the document over NFC. The chip's data is signed by the issuing country, and we check that signature on our servers, so a forged or altered document is caught even when the photo page looks right. The chip's portrait can also be matched to a live selfie.
Chip-readable documents from Egypt: Passport.
Business verification
A company register lookup is not available in Egypt yet. You can still verify the people behind a business here, and screen and monitor the business itself.

Compliance
Financial businesses in Egypt answer to: Central Bank of Egypt.
Know your customer
Verify identity before an account is used, keep the evidence, and apply more checks where the risk is higher. Workflows let you choose which IDs you accept and what happens on a mismatch or an expired document.
Screen and keep watching
Screen customers against sanctions, politically exposed person and adverse media lists, re-screen them on a schedule, and score transactions and account activity as they happen.
Investigate and report
Alerts roll up into cases with an audit trail, and suspicious activity reports can be drafted from a case and reviewed by a second person before filing.
Protect personal data
Each check records the consent given. You choose which fields are returned to you and how long documents are kept.
Frequently asked
Passport, Driver's licence, and National ID card. Each is verified by reading the document, and chip documents can be read over NFC in the mobile SDKs.
