“During the COVID-19 pandemic, digital transfer platforms, like ours, have been in high demand, so we needed to automate our onboarding process to assist more users. Sumsub’s compliant, user-friendly flow frees up our working schedule by taking control of customer onboarding and verification. Before, we spent so much time on manual checks, but now, with Sumsub’s automated onboarding solution, we have more time to develop other aspects of our business.” Says Gaoussou Keita, co-founder, and Chief Operating Officer.
‘Money transfer companies are undergoing a spate of traffic that has to be managed without any hold-ups. That is the first issue. The second is that this wave of new users could also bring a lot of concerns in terms of fraud, and businesses have to be ready to face those risks. That said, we are happy to help Danapay safely process their clients and take care of regulatory compliance both now, and as they expand further into the West African region.’ said Jacob Sever, Co-founder of Sumsub.
