DIDx

DIDx is a South Africa-based digital identity infrastructure provider for regulated businesses that need trusted verification, reusable credentials, and consent-based data sharing across digital transactions.

Key capabilities include:

• didx:verify: An identity verification orchestration layer where a customer defines what must be verified and the system selects appropriate verification providers for accuracy, speed, and cost, enabling “verify once” checks that can be reused.
• didx:me: Verifiable credential infrastructure to issue, store, and verify reusable digital credentials while reducing PII liability, so organisations can verify users without storing unnecessary sensitive data.
• didx:proxy: A verified addressing and discovery layer that replaces fragile identifiers with trusted handles that resolve to verified endpoints under user consent, supporting safer connections between people, businesses, and systems.
• didx:pay: A payment layer with identity built in, verifying required credentials before money moves to help reduce fraud risk and simplify compliance without exposing sensitive data.

Available via Web and API documentation at https://docs.didx.co.za/.

Target users include financial platforms, marketplaces, regulated digital services, and credential-driven ecosystems that need support for frameworks such as FICA, RICA, and AML without storing unnecessary data.

Notable in the African context, the infrastructure is described as used at national scale across African markets and underpins real deployments such as Twytch (ride-hailing safety and driver credentialing) and YOMA, a UNICEF-supported youth opportunity marketplace that issues verifiable credentials to over one million young Africans.
