BingX’s global expansion led them to engage with a diverse array of customers, including those in regions with distinct regulatory and compliance requirements. This presented BingX with a significant compliance challenge, keeping up with a constantly shifting regulatory landscape in different countries.

The Challenge

BingX needed an automated verification solution to enhance the security and efficiency of its onboarding and identity verification processes. This was due to the rapid growth of the cryptocurrency and blockchain industries, highlighting the importance of robust KYC (Know Your Customer) and AML (Anti-Money Laundering) compliance. For BingX, automating these processes was essential to streamlining customer onboarding and meeting regulatory requirements more effectively.

Before integrating Sumsub, BingX relied on manual verification, with their team manually reviewing user identity documents and other information. This process was time-consuming and posed challenges in terms of scalability, accuracy, and consistency, primarily as the company engaged with a broader user base.
