Find real matches even when names are messy
OneKYC normalises names before screening, then applies configurable matching rules based on list type, customer risk, jurisdiction, and verification confidence.
Customizable by client, risk, and verification status
Use broader matching for unverified names, tighter rules for verified profiles, and separate thresholds for individuals, companies, merchants, and counterparties.
Configurable matching logic
Handle real-world spelling, ordering, language, and legal-name variation.
