KYC Reliance using Sumsub

Reuse existing Sumsub KYC data to eliminate redundant user verification

KYC Reliance allows you to reuse existing KYC (Know Your Customer) verification data from Sumsub to eliminate redundant identity verification for your users. If your users have already completed KYC through your Sumsub integration, OZZOBiT can accept that verification instead of requiring them to go through KYC again.

Overview

Traditional crypto onboarding requires users to complete KYC verification with each service provider. This creates friction and poor user experience. With OZZOBiT's KYC Reliance feature powered by Sumsub, you can share verified KYC data so users only need to verify their identity once.

The Problem

ChallengeImpact
Repeated KYCUsers must submit ID documents multiple times across different services
Longer time-to-transactionEach KYC review adds minutes to hours before a user can transact
Higher drop-offUsers abandon flows when asked to upload documents yet again
Poor UX perceptionRedundant verification makes your product feel unprofessional

Prerequisites

Active Sumsub Account

You must have an active Sumsub account with KYC verification already implemented in your application.

OZZOBiT Partner Account

You need an active OZZOBiT partner account with API access enabled.

Feature Enablement

Contact OZZOBiT support to enable KYC Reliance on your partner account. This feature must be explicitly enabled.

How It Works

User Completes KYC on Your Platform

User uploads documents and completes identity verification via your Sumsub integration.

Sumsub Verifies & Approves

Sumsub reviews the submitted documents and approves the KYC verification.

You Pass External ID to OZZOBiT

Your application sends the Sumsub applicant ID (externalUserId) to OZZOBiT when initiating a transaction.

OZZOBiT Validates KYC Status

OZZOBiT queries Sumsub to confirm the KYC status and level for this user.

User Proceeds Without Re-KYC

If KYC is valid, the user proceeds directly to payment without additional verification.
