FAQs

  • Kyckr offers global business verification, real-time company filings and UBO identification in a single platform, connecting you to a live network of 300+ company registers across 100+ countries.

  • Kyckr retrieves live data directly from official government sources at the time of your request. Unlike other providers of company data, that means our information is always the most up-to-date and authoritative overview of a company.

    Our data is also time-stamped, audit-ready and includes the name and logo of the source company register’s name and logo. You avoid the risks of inaccurate or outdated information, meeting AML regulatory requirements seamlessly.

  • AML regulations require firms to use ‘reliable and independent’ sources for business verification. Company registers are considered a reliable, primary source as companies are legally required to keep their registrations up to date. Additionally, unlike other commercial providers we also disclose all our sources, ensuring transparency and compliance.

  • Kyckr delivers structured and machine-readable company profiles through our web portal, as PDFs or obtained in JSON/XML format via API. Our profiles contain critical KYB data points including company registration details, directors, and shareholders. The information provided is live registry data but normalised into a single profile format to make verification quicker.

    We also provide a full range of official register documents, such as annual accounts and formation documents. Using our extensive network and team of skilled analysts, if a document exists at one of our source registers, we can get it for you. In most cases, this takes just 15 minutes or less.

  • No – Kyckr doesn’t currently provide AML screening (PePs, Sanctions & Adverse Media) services, but we can connect you with market-leading partners who can.

  • If UBOs are identifiable at a company register and the information is publicly available then Kyckr will provide this information in our profiles, or as a PDF extract.

    Additionally, our UBO Verify feature automates the unwrapping of complex corporate ownership structures in jurisdictions where shareholding data is available, even if there are no UBOs filed.

    On average, our UBO service can speed up UBO identification by 95%, when compared to manual research alone.

  • Use of Kyckr data can greatly accelerate customer data remediation, as part of a regular update cycle. For projects with large numbers of existing records, we can also handle bulk remediation on a project basis.

    Our API can also be configured to provide ongoing monitoring of changes to company information. This can support the shift from periodic KYB to an event-driven approach, triggered by changes in business registration or ownership.

  • Our services are available via a SaaS web portal or REST API.

  • Yes – Kyckr’s data and software services can be seamlessly integrated with both proprietary and third-party software systems using our simple API. Our developer documentation can be found here.
