Knowing your customer (KYC) is critical to your business to mitigate external risks and safeguard your company brand and financials. For example, KYC is critical for banks to comply with Anti-Money Laundering reporting standards. KYC is the bank’s way of taking ownership of all funds placed for deposit under their care while establishing rapport with the client. The objective here is to validate the identity, profile, and reputation of an individual or a business entity.

Traditionally, KYC has been a paper-based manual process. Moreover, this offline process is time-consuming and cumbersome. There was no way to establish trust in customers instantly- on the fly. Times have changed! With the world’s largest biometric database, Aadhaar, the business landscape has witnessed a revolution of a kind! Businesses can now build trust in customers in real time, anywhere with Aadhaar-based offline eKYC .
