User verification check results
Review and manage ID verification, proof of address, watchlist screening, and many more check results in a single place.
On the User verification tab, you can review statistics on user verification (KYC).
Not all sections described below may be available, as it depends upon the verification level settings and checks passed by the applicant.
Summary
Summary provides you with the core information about the applicant level and allows you to quickly navigate through the completed steps, rejection reasons, checks, and regulations.
In this section, you can also change the current verification level. For more information on how to create and edit verification levels, see this article.
Events
Events show the sequence in which applicant profiles are processed. For example, each time an email or SMS is sent to the applicant, a new document is uploaded, the applicant is declined or approved, and so on, a dedicated event is saved and displayed as a reference.
Notes
Notes help you preserve and share information (or memos) that you or Sumsub support operators may have saved to emphasize important aspects related to the given applicant. For example, when we decline an applicant as a possible PEP and you decide to approve this applicant, you can let us know about your decision by leaving a note.
TIP
Notes can also be used as a search criteria when searching for applicants.
Risk labels
Risk labels are assigned during verification and indicate certain characteristics of an applicant. For more information, see this article.
Profile data
The profile data shows top-level applicant information, such as the applicant ID, profile creation date, applicant contacts, date and time when the applicant was last screened, and so on.
You can also change or add such information as the applicant email address, language, source key, and phone number.
Questionnaire
The Questionnaire section shows a questionnaire required to be completed by the applicant during or after verification. An operator who runs a video identification can also complete the questionnaire using the answers provided by the applicant.
After the questionnaire is complete, you can find the submitted answers and uploaded files in the Questionnaire section.
To re-submit the information for a completed questionnaire, you can reset the questionnaire by clicking Reset. Alternatively, you can use this API method providing the
QUESTIONNAIRE
parameter.
Personal info and provided personal info
These sections show the following:
- Personal info — displays the information recognized and extracted from the applicant documents.
- Provided personal info — displays the information submitted by the applicant via the Web or MobileSDK or via this API method.
Address info
Address Info shows the data:
- Extracted from the applicant PoA documents.
- Submitted by the applicant via the WebSDK and MobileSDK.
You can also submit this information using this API method.
Identity check
Identity checks indicate check results showing the reliability of the provided PoI documents:
- The Provided data section shows the data obtained from the trusted government and commercial sources by the applicant PoI document number.
- The Extracted data section indicates the check status.
Proof of address check
Proof of address checks indicate check results showing the reliability of the provided PoA documents.
The following table explains the check labels, their description, and possible check states as indicated by colors.
Check label |
Description |
Check state |
---|---|---|
Unexpired |
Indicates that the document is valid. |
Red () — The issue date or expiry date of PoA document does not match client settings. |
Acceptable type |
Shows whether the type or subtype of PoA document is acceptable. |
Red () — Type or subtype is forbidden by client settings or in case of ID as POA, certain ID doc type is forbidden by client settings (for example — ID_CARD). |
Address check |
Shows whether the business address or PO box is acceptable. |
Red () — Business address or PO box is forbidden by client settings. |
POI and POA are different documents |
Verifies that PoI and PoA documents do not match. |
Red () — PoI and PoA are the same document, which is forbidden by client settings. |
Matches Proof of Identity country |
Indicates if PoI country matches with PoA country. |
Red () — PoI and PoA countries do not match. Gray () — Сheck is disabled in client settings. |
Acceptable region |
Verifies that the applicant address does not belong to disputed territories. |
Red () — PoA document contains the address of disputed territories. |
Acceptable language |
Reveals if PoA document contains languages forbidden by your settings. |
Red () — PoA contains languages forbidden by client settings. |
Info
- The green () check label means that verification was successful.
- The yellow () check label means that it was not possible to extract enough data for a given check.
AML Screening
During the auto-check, Sumsub uses the watchlist screening to determine if your applicants belong to any of the various sanction lists and watchlists across the globe.
The watchlist screening helps find applicants that are:
- Known or suspected terrorists.
- Sanctioned persons.
- Politically exposed persons (PEPs).
- Persons with criminal background.
- Persons mentioned in adverse media.
All applicants that belong to any of these categories are rejected automatically during the watchlists (WL) screening. To approve such applicants, follow the instructions given in this article.
You can also generate a screening report and save it as PDF.
Email and phone confirmation checks
Email and phone checks display the verification results that indicate the reliability of the provided email address and phone number.
IP check
The IP check displays the verification results that indicate the reliability of the applicant's IP address used during verification.
Liveness
Liveness shows the results of the Liveness & Face match check passed by the applicant.
You can see such statistics as the date and time when the liveness check was performed, information about the platform and device used during the liveness session, liveness video snippet, and pictures from the recorded selfie.
Note
The liveness check is performed only if the Selfie step (Advanced Liveness check) is added to the verification level.
Face match
Face match shows the results of comparing facial characteristics taken from the applicant PoI documents with that on the selfie.
Face match works in the following way:
- Feature Extraction. The algorithm begins by processing each face image, both the document photo and the liveness. It then extracts the unique features that define the facial characteristics, such as the distance between the eyes, the shape of the nose, mouth, jawline, and other defining attributes.
- Feature Vector Generation. Each set of features is converted into a numerical representation, called a feature vector. This conversion facilitates the quick and accurate comparison of different faces.
- Comparison and Matching. The Face Match algorithm then compares the feature vectors of the two images. It calculates a similarity score based on the overlap and differences between these numerical representations.
- Threshold Determination. A threshold value is set as a benchmark for face matching. If the similarity score is above this threshold, the faces are considered to be a match; if below, they are not a match.
- Result Generation. The algorithm provides the outcome of the comparison, indicating whether the faces match (i.e., whether they are of the same person) or not.
Data matches
Shows duplicate profiles.
To detect duplicates, Sumsub searches for profiles that have the same full name, ID documents, email addresses, phone numbers, or even facial features.
For more information on how to configure duplicate processing, see this article.
Documents
The Documents section contains a list of documents submitted by the applicants during verification in accordance with the verification level settings.
For example, you may want to request applicants to submit identity documents, such as the passport, driver's license, or resident permit, along with some additional proof of identity, such as the second identity document (e.g., student ID or vehicle passport) and/or residence permit, etc.
Each of the documents submitted by your applicants is listed independently one after another, showing its verification status and rejection reasons (if any).
You can perform the following actions on documents:
- Change the current status of any document if needed.
- Edit document information in case the OCR engine could not recognize it properly.
- Change document information, such as its county and type, and remove the document.
- Manually add PoI and PoA documents if needed, for example, when performing a manual check or run Video identification.
Attachments
In the Attachments section, the applicant can upload specific documents that were not included in the standard set of documents for certain checks. You can use such documents on other stages.
For example, the applicant needs to complete the Questionnaire with a particular document, such as Form W8-BEN and provides Water Bill. It can be marked as a PoA document, but we do not request it during the regular PoA check.
