Why Udyam Verification is Important Before Onboarding MSMs

What is Udyam Verification?

Make your onboarding process safer, faster, and smarter by verifying the legitimacy of the MSME merchants operating in the manufacturing or service sectors, on your platform.

With AuthBridge’s Udyam Verification API, you can now seamlessly onboard merchants knowing that the merchant exists, is genuine, and is authorized to partake in the manufacture or service sector by the Ministry of MSME.

Some of the top benefits are discussed below:

How does our Udyam Verification API work?

As soon as you provide a Udyam Aadhaar number as input, you will receive multiple data points that help you identify and mitigate the risk of the merchant.

• Name of the merchant
• Registered business address
• Activity the merchant is involved in
• Period of validity of the Udyam Aadhaar number
• Type of merchant (micro/ small/ medium)
• The social category of the merchant

Where can it be used?

• Lending: To make profitable lending deals and prevent unreliable borrowers from damaging their financial standing, it is important to filter out fraudsters. Verifying businesses/entities with a high risk of fraud becomes paramount – especially in banking, finance, and retail. The Udyam certificate verification API helps lending institutions to validate the authenticity of the enterprises and reduce the risks associated with financial and reputational damage.

• Merchant/Business Partner Onboarding: For any e-commerce or aggregator companies to onboard MSME merchants or entities on their platform, the Udyam Aadhaar verification assures the businesses that they are dealing with a genuine business partner that would not cause unforeseen risks or threats in the future.
