Database Checking FAQ

What is Database Checking?

Address database checking is a critical component of identity verification services. It involves cross-referencing an individual’s provided address against a comprehensive and up-to-date database of addresses. This process helps in confirming the authenticity of the address details provided by a user. By ensuring that the address exists and matches the details given by the individual, businesses can prevent fraud, enhance customer trust, and comply with regulatory requirements. Our solution accesses a wide range of authoritative databases, providing real-time verification to support the integrity of your verification processes.

For example, AML regulations require that banks and other financial institutions that issue a credit or allow customers to open deposit accounts follow rules to ensure they are not aiding in money-laundering.

Implementing address database checking as part of your identity verification process offers numerous benefits for your business. Firstly, it significantly reduces the risk of fraud by ensuring that the addresses provided by users are genuine. This verification step is crucial for sectors like finance, e-commerce, and telecommunications, where accurate customer information is essential for service delivery and compliance. Additionally, it streamlines the onboarding process, enhancing the user experience by quickly verifying addresses, thus accelerating the registration and checkout processes. Moreover, compliance with KYC (Know Your Customer) and AML (Anti-Money Laundering) regulations is strengthened, protecting your business from potential legal penalties and reputational damage.

Absolutely, and positively so. Our address database checking service is designed with both security and customer experience in mind. By automating and streamlining the verification process, it minimises the need for manual input and document submission, reducing friction and improving the speed of onboarding and transactions. Customers appreciate the ease with which their addresses are verified, enhancing their trust in your services. Furthermore, our solution is built to seamlessly integrate into your existing platforms, ensuring a seamless verification process that supports rather than hinders the customer journey.
