When Each Check Runs

The checks on this tab do not all fire at the same point, which matters if you act on webhooks:
Auto adverse media monitoring only works together with Auto AML monitoring.
The AML check screens against whichever datasets you have configured under AML settings — it does not carry its own dataset selection. See AML from Verification for how a hit surfaces on the verification.

Dependencies Worth Knowing

  • Verify bank is the master toggle for the three bank checks beneath it. Turning on accounts, balances or transactions without it has no effect. See Bank Verification.
  • Criminal background check is available for US citizens only, and LID check only for Lithuanian-issued documents. Both appear greyed out until enabled for your account.
  • Driver’s license check runs the AAMVA match — see USA Driver’s License Check (AAMVA) for what counts as a match.

Bank Card Verification

The two bank card settings moved here from KYC → Configuration; existing values carried over and need no reconfiguring. Neither is self-service — you’ll see a Request button instead of a toggle. Contact iDenfy to request access. Bank card PDF upload does double duty: inside the identity verification flow it lets the user submit a PDF instead of a live capture, and in the standalone flow it also decides whether the method selection screen offers document upload at all. See Bank Card Verification for setup and how the verdict is decided.

Duplicates Vs. Blocklists

Both compare a face or a set of personal details against records you already hold, but they answer different questions and produce different tags. The two country blocklists work on different signals: by IP country acts on where the user appears to be connecting from and ends the session outright, while by declared country acts on the document or country they select and stops them proceeding. Neither consults the other. See Duplicate Check for how a duplicate is scored.
