AML SCREENINGWHY IT MATTERS
Nigeria's fintech boom demands identity infrastructure that understands Nigerian documents.
Nigeria is home to Africa's largest fintech ecosystem — with over 200 licensed payment companies, 4 mobile money operators, and dozens of neobanks. Yet identity verification remains a critical bottleneck: NIN slips come in multiple formats, PVCs are frequently rejected by global providers, and BVN-linked verification requires specialist integration. The CBN's 3-tier KYC framework mandates different verification levels based on transaction value. The NFIU requires ongoing AML monitoring. DigiVerify is built from the ground up for this complexity — supporting every Nigerian identity document, screening against the EFCC watchlist, and mapping to every CBN tier requirement.
