August 2025
In August, we aimed to make our products and their settings smarter and more accessible. The Sumsub SDKs are now easier to adjust and use. Travel Rule and Crypto Monitoring have expanded their integrations and improved the accuracy of monitoring capabilities, and the Dashboard can now flex with the enhanced UI, easier management, and richer detail.
More is coming soon!
August 4 -> August 8
SDK
MobileSDK version update
Version 1.37 of the MobileSDK has been released. This update introduces support for the enhanced NFC reader and the Non-Doc Verification setting in the Identity document step.
Changelog:
New MobileSDK plugins
The MobileSDK plugins 1.36.1 have been delivered.
Changelog:
Integrate with MobileSDK ->Custom instructions for PoA step in WebSDK 2.0
A new setting has been delivered for adding custom instructional text in a PoA step. The text appears at the bottom of the page and supports Markdown formatting.
Translation keys:
steps.POA.docTypes.customCopyTips.allowed
steps.POA.docTypes.customCopyTips.notAllowed
PoA hints for applicants in SDK
From now on, if the uploaded proof of address document does not show all the required information, we will ask applicants to upload the other side as well.
Important notes:
- This feature only applies to Proof of Address verification.
- When enabled, it overrides the Accept proof of address documents with multiple pages setting in the PoA presets.
- Currently, it is only supported in the WebSDK.
- No extra configuration is needed.
Redirect URL settings
We have split the external WebSDK links setting into two separate options to simplify the configuration:
- Post-verification redirect URL field—A custom URL to which applicants are redirected after successful verification.
-
Use redirect URL for SDK link generation checkbox—A setting that allows to replace the default domain in SDK links with the custom redirect URL. This applies to:
- SDK links sent via email.
- Links shared between KYC and KYB applicants.
- Links used to continue verification on mobile devices.
Travel Rule
VASP attribution backup
We have added an ability to specify a VASP in a Travel Rule transaction after its creation.
If the transaction cannot be attributed to the VASP, your applicants can still specify whether it belongs to a specific VASP or unhosted wallet, via the new Travel Rule SDK flow.
Getting started:
- In the Dashboard, go to Transactions and travel rule and navigate to Settings.
- Go to the Travel Rule page and select the Activate TR SDK on transaction checkbox.
This enables the new Travel Rule flow, improving the accuracy of VASP attribution.
Get started with the Sumsub Travel Rule ->User Verification
Field for indefinite documents
A new termless
field has been added to the idDocs
object. Now when you fetch a document via the Get applicant data method, the termless
field
will be present and set to true, if the document is considered indefinite.
The validUntil: 2099-01-01
value may still be present as well, but it will be removed for indefinite documents in a few months.
Dashboard
Effortless level management
The Change Level button has been renamed to Manage Level and enhanced with new features.
What’s new:
- You can change the applicant level.
- You can reset specific steps — even within the current level.
These updates give you full control over what applicants need to submit or re-submit, without triggering a full reset or making unnecessary changes.
Plan details page for enterprise clients
A new page in the Billing section that provides detailed insights into a current subscription has been added.
Data available on the page:
- Remaining deposit amount.
- List of services in the current subscription.
- Indication of whether each service is charged from the deposit.
- Price of each service.
- A separate tab for group and individual commitments, showing the commitment name, amount, and included services.
Smarter collapsible blocks on Applicant page
We have improved the behavior of collapsible blocks on the Applicant page to get rid of endless scrolling and resetting.
What’s changed:
Every module now follows one of two behaviors.
- Remembered — your open/closed preference is saved.
-
Always open — blocks shown by default:
- Add Documents
- Applicant Notes
- Attachment images
- Identity documents
- Videoldent
Transaction Monitoring
Rule change event log
You can now view a complete history of rule changes, including who made each change, what was changed, and when it happened. This update makes debugging and client support significantly easier.
Variables support in scoring threshold for rules
Three rules in the Scoring Threshold bundle now support custom variables.
AML Checks generation improvement
AML check generation has been updated to prevent duplicate names across institutions, eliminating overlaps and confusion. Each entry is now unique, resulting in cleaner AML audit trails.
AML Screening table updates
Review time is now displayed as a separate column, consistent with other tables such as Applicants. Event logs for AML Screenings will be moved into this section in an upcoming update.
Expanded AML Screening check details
The individual AML check pages for counterparties, institutions, and payment details now display additional information:
- Fuzziness
- Search Reference
- Case ID, etc.
Crypto Monitoring
Elliptic transaction screening
We have now expanded the Elliptic integration to include transaction screening, enhancing overall monitoring capabilities.
Transaction screening analyzes blockchain transactions that have already occurred and have a blockchain hash. The wallet/address and transaction screenings are complementary, allowing VASPs to use either or both.
New rules based on this feature have been added to Crypto Monitoring: Elliptic Bundle.
Blockchain screening results in Transaction Reports
We’ve added the ability to view crypto monitoring screening results in exported Transaction reports.
This applies to all our crypto monitoring providers: Chainalysis, Elliptic, Crystal, and TRM Labs.
