Vendor Selection
We evaluate and recommend KYC technology vendors — biometric verification, document scanning, liveness detection, and database screening — matched to your risk appetite and budget.

Regulatory Context
South Africa's Financial Intelligence Centre Act (FICA) requires all accountable institutions to implement risk-based customer due diligence. The FSCA and SARB actively supervise compliance. For crypto businesses, the Travel Rule (FATF Recommendation 16) adds additional obligations for virtual asset transfers. Getting KYC right from the start avoids costly remediation later.
