What is ComplyCube?

ComplyCube is a compliance platform that automates customer identity verification, know-your-customer (KYC), know-your-business (KYB), anti-money laundering (AML) screening and fraud prevention. It combines document and biometric verification, sanctions and PEP screening, adverse media checks and ongoing monitoring into a single integrated service. Businesses access it through a web portal, REST API, and web and mobile SDKs, with codeless options for teams that prefer not to build an integration. It supports onboarding and due diligence across 220-plus countries and territories.

Key Features

Document and eID verification

Checks identity documents and electronic IDs to confirm a person is who they claim to be.

Biometric verification

Uses facial biometrics and liveness detection to match a selfie against a verified document.

AML screening

Screens individuals and businesses against global sanctions, PEP and watchlists, plus adverse media checks.

Continuous monitoring

Provides ongoing AML monitoring so changes in a customer's risk status are flagged after onboarding.

Workflow builder and case management

Lets compliance teams configure verification journeys, apply policies and review cases in one portal.

Risk scoring and fraud intelligence

Applies risk scoring and fraud signals to help teams make onboarding decisions.

Integration options

Offers a REST API, web SDK, iOS and Android SDKs, and a hosted verification page for codeless deployment.

Pros & Cons

Advantages

  • Covers a broad compliance scope (KYC, KYB, AML and fraud) in one platform rather than requiring separate tools.
  • Offers multiple integration routes including API, SDKs and a hosted page, suiting both developer and codeless teams.
  • Pricing is transparent at the entry and mid tiers, with published monthly costs for Starter and Core plans.
  • A 14-day free trial with 50 complimentary checks lets teams evaluate the service before committing.
  • Wide geographic coverage across 220-plus countries and territories supports global onboarding.
  • Charges only for successfully completed verifications, so failed or incomplete checks do not incur fees.

Limitations

  • Advanced capabilities such as eID authentication, NFC verification and biometric enrolment are reserved for the custom-priced Growth and Enterprise tiers.
  • Higher tier pricing is not published, so larger organisations must contact sales for a quote.
  • The breadth of compliance configuration may require dedicated compliance knowledge to set up effectively.
  • The partner programme is application-based rather than self-serve, so approval is not immediate.
