KYC / E-commerce and marketplaces

Your operational challenges. Verification where it matters.

Address identity fraud and organize records that help clarify agreements and requests.

Fraudulent purchases and chargeback risk

The challenge
Identity misuse in orders can lead to losses and fraud disputes.
How we help
Add buyer KYC to orders selected by your risk controls.

Sellers or representatives using false identities

The challenge
Applicants may use someone else’s identity to try to operate on the platform.
How we help
Verify the person during onboarding and use the result in your business assessment.

Account takeover and payout changes

The challenge
An attacker may attempt to recover access or change payout details.
How we help
Verify the requester before your platform authorizes sensitive changes.

Disputes without organized records

The challenge
Clarifying a purchase or agreement requires records linked to the order or contract.
How we help
Link KYC results to order records and, where an agreement exists, to documents formalized through eSignatures.

KYC

Verification at the right point in the journey.

Explore practical ways to identify people during onboarding and sensitive requests.

Card purchases and fraud-related chargeback prevention

When to use it
For orders selected by the store based on risk or a need to verify buyer identity.
How it works
Order selected → buyer completes KYC by link → store links results to the order and payment controls → store decides how to proceed.
Benefit for your operation
Strengthen identity assessment for higher-risk purchases and organize records to support fraud-dispute reviews.

Seller onboarding

When to use it
When identifying someone applying for a seller account.
How it works
Registration begins → configured document, facial biometrics and liveness checks → marketplace assesses the result.
Benefit for your operation
Organize identification before activation. Commercial assessment remains with the marketplace.

People representing partners

When to use it
When identifying a person associated with a business partner.
How it works
Partner identifies the person → KYC journey → result sent to your assessment process.
Benefit for your operation
Add identity context. Verifying a person does not validate a company or authority to represent it.

Illustrative use cases. Results depend on each customer's integration, rules and operations.

FAQ

Does verifying a person validate their company?

No. Personal identity verification does not replace company-registration checks or assessment of authority to represent it.

Does KYC decide who may sell or receive payouts?

Your platform retains commercial, risk and payout decisions. The identity result supports that process.

How can this connect to agreements?

Explore the signing platform to send, track and store documents. Our team can assess a journey combining KYC and agreement signing.

How does KYC support chargeback prevention?

Buyer verification adds identity context to the store’s controls. It does not itself prove card ownership or replace issuer authentication and payment rules. Chargebacks can also have other causes.

How do records support legal and regulatory matters?

Identity-verification records and signed documents help clarify the contracting process and support audits, disputes and legal reviews. KYC documents the identity-verification result; signing records document formalization. Applicable requirements and the assessment of records depend on the agreement and your operation.
