Identity & Compliance
Built for Africa
Verify identities, screen for risk, and stay compliant across all 54 African countries through one unified platform.
Built for regulated businesses across:
The Problem
Africa has 54 countries. Each one runs its own national ID system, its own data protection laws, and its own regulatory rules. A compliance tool that works in Europe won't automatically work in Nigeria, Kenya, or Ghana.
Nigeria uses the NIMC NIN database. South Africa relies on the Department of Home Affairs. Kenya has the IPRS. Ghana has the NIA. Each system has different data formats and different integration requirements.
Managing all of these separately is slow and risky. VerifyAfrica connects them all through one API. Your team focuses on risk decisions, not on maintaining integrations.
The VerifyAfrica Solution
VerifyAfrica brings together everything your compliance team needs. Document verification, biometric liveness checks, business registry lookups, AML screening, PEP checks, and ongoing monitoring, all in one place.
Every check creates a timestamped audit trail. It meets the requirements of regulators across Africa, including Nigeria's CBN, South Africa's FIC, Kenya's CBK, and Ghana's BoG.
Most teams integrate via API in one to two weeks. Or go live in hours using our hosted Link Mode, no frontend work needed.
A single platform built for Africa's unique compliance challenges, combining AI-driven verification with local registry integrations and audit-ready controls.
