      Why Video KYC?

      KYC is generally part of the financial regulatory process for any Financial Institution (FI) to identify and verify the client’s identity when opening an account and periodically over time (reKYC). In other words, FIs must make sure that their clients are genuinely who they claim to be.

      Video-based KYC provides the means to FIs to perform KYC remotely from anywhere via a video call. The verifier authenticates the person on the video call, the ID and Address documents presented, does a liveliness check along with establishing the precise location of the person.

      VideoKYC is needed for several reasons, including compliance with regulations, increased security and fraud prevention, execution at scale for a very large customer base and enhanced customer experience.
