Idtra

Idtra is an identity-verification and KYC API built for African businesses that need to verify users, businesses, and bank accounts during onboarding, payments, and fraud-prevention workflows.

Key capabilities include:

• NIN verification to validate Nigerian National Identity Numbers and return demographic data plus photo matching sourced from NIMC.
• BVN verification to confirm identity details against bank account holder records.
• Phone verification for number validation, carrier identification, and active status checks.
• Business verification to look up RC numbers, directors, and CAC details, plus bank account verification to resolve account numbers to names before payouts or collections.

The product also includes a web dashboard for verification logs, API keys, wallet funding, usage analytics, and team access, alongside developer tools such as a sandbox environment, REST API, webhooks, a Postman collection, and SDKs for PHP, Node.js, and Python. Face match is listed as coming soon.

Available on Web (dashboard) and via API.

It targets B2B teams in sectors such as fintech, real estate, betting, and the gig economy that need programmatic KYC and verification.

Notable for the African market context, the website positions it as NDPR-aligned identity infrastructure and advertises pay-as-you-go pricing with charges applied to successful queries only (failed or unreturned queries refunded), plus claimed 99.9% uptime and sub-150 ms average response times.
