Know Your Customer

Equifax can help you perform rigorous identity checks in near real-time without adding any complexity to the user experience. So you can get to Know Your Customers with confidence, and meet industry and regulatory standards.

Identity verification looks beyond the direct evidence of fraud or misrepresentation to connect accounts, people and devices that might seem unrelated. This helps you spot suspicious behaviour or anomalies and prevent fraud from sources that otherwise appear genuine.

Identity Checking in Near Real-Time

Know Your Customer verifies a customer’s identity in near real-time using name and address matching and personal attributes. This reduces your exposure to risk and improves your overall customer experience, whilst supporting adherance to KYC and AML requirements.
