## About the product

LumiID is an Africa-focused identity, compliance, and fraud-prevention platform for businesses that need to verify customers and companies, screen risk, and monitor activity across multiple markets.

Key capabilities include:
- **KYC and government ID checks** for onboarding workflows, including Nigerian **NIN** and **BVN** verification, plus document verification and data extraction where supported.
- **KYB and business verification** to verify corporate entities and check **directors** and **beneficial owners** before activation, payouts, or account access.
- **Biometric verification** with **face matching** and **liveness** signals to reduce impersonation and strengthen proof of presence.
- **AML and fraud intelligence** covering sanctions, **PEP**, and adverse media screening, plus fraud signals (identity, device, and behavioral) and **transaction monitoring** with configurable rules, alerts, and case context.

Available via **Web dashboard** and **REST API** (JSON), with **webhooks**, hosted or embedded verification flows, and developer documentation at https://docs.lumiid.com/quickstart/.

Target users include **fintechs, banks, lenders, payment and remittance providers, marketplaces**, and other regulated or risk-sensitive organizations running KYC, KYB, AML, and fraud workflows.

It is notable for its **Africa-market coverage model** (availability varies by country, check, document, and data source) and for combining identity verification, compliance screening, and monitoring into a single integration. The website also lists LumiID as a **Pitch Friday S1E2 Winner** and states the service is operated by **OmniNile Systems Limited** in its Terms.
