FAQ

  • What is Database Verification?

    Database Verification is a method of confirming a person’s identity by checking their personal information against trusted, independent sources such as government, credit, and commercial databases. This process helps ensure that the individual is who they claim to be, effectively preventing identity fraud.

  • How does Database Verification enhance security?

    This method enhances security by cross-referencing user-provided data with multiple reliable sources, making it significantly harder for fraudsters to use synthetic or stolen identities. It adds a crucial layer of validation that goes beyond simple document checks.

  • Is Database Verification compliant with regulations?

    Yes, using official and trusted databases for verification is a key component of regulatory compliance, including KYC (Know Your Customer) and AML (Anti-Money Laundering) requirements. It helps businesses meet their legal obligations to verify customer identities.

  • In which countries is Database Verification available?

    Sumsub’s Database Verification is available in over 50 countries, providing wide-reaching coverage that allows businesses to securely onboard users from various regions while maintaining high standards of identity confirmation.

  • Can this method be integrated with other verification checks?

    Absolutely. Database Verification is most effective when used as part of a comprehensive verification flow. It can be combined with Document Verification, Biometric Checks, and other methods to create a robust, multi-layered security strategy tailored to specific risk levels and regulatory needs.
