What is a Manual KYC Spot Check?
A Manual KYC Spot Check is a streamlined process where the Verifid user uploads an identity document for a person and requests verification and screening results on demand. It’s especially useful when you want to:
Unlike Client Onboarding, spot checks are meant for speed and flexibility – perfect when you don’t want to build a full customer record but still need compliance-grade output.
Document Verification: upload and validate identity documents
Verifid supports common KYC document types used across Europe and internationally. You can upload:
The platform checks the submitted document for validity and consistency, helping you confirm that the document appears genuine and suitable for KYC purposes. This improves onboarding conversion for legitimate customers while strengthening fraud prevention for suspicious cases.
For compliance teams, it also means fewer manual checks, less subjective decision-making, and a more standardized process.
AML Screening in the same flow: sanctions and PEP checks
Once the identity document is uploaded, Verifid can generate an AML report for the same person. This includes screening against key AML risk indicators such as:
You receive a clear result that supports internal decision-making and regulatory expectations—whether you approve, reject, or escalate the case for enhanced due diligence.
This approach supports risk-based compliance, helping you apply the right level of checks depending on the situation, customer type, and your internal policies.
Clear results and compliance-friendly reporting
Verifid is built to support real compliance work—not just a “pass/fail” response. Spot checks are presented in a structured way that makes it easy to:
