Why Does Osome Use Sumsub for Identity Verification Instead of Manual Checks?

UK regulations require businesses providing accounting and company services to perform Know Your Customer (KYC) checks as part of anti-money laundering (AML) and counter-terrorist financing compliance.

At Osome, identity verification is conducted through Sumsub, a specialised identity verification platform. This allows us to securely verify client identities using advanced technologies such as biometric checks and automated document analysis.

Using an automated verification provider helps reduce the risk of human error and ensures that the verification process meets strict regulatory standards.

For security and compliance reasons, we are unable to complete identity verification through manual document checks.
