Income & identity verification
Refine the underwriting process by validating the identity and account information in several clicks. Check instantly the sources of income including basic salary, freelance, dividends, abroad, and mitigate risks associated with outdated and false information. Eliminate manual checks and prevent fraud by immediate data verification.
Financial insights & expense analysis
Improve accuracy of credit scoring calculation by designing a quicker and more reliable credit assessment model. Sophisticated pattern recognition and machine learning algorithms deliver enriched data that helps you analyse your customer’s financial health.
Instant decisioning
