Our team was responsible for creating one of the very first electronic AML services back in the early 2000s

Back then, regulatory bodies did not accept electronic identification as a viable alternative to documents such as passports, driving licenses and utility bills. But now, it is recognised as the most reliable, secure and efficient source of information for identity solutions, with the Fifth Money Laundering Directive now stipulating that electronic identification should be used wherever possible.

Now we’re multiple award winning and one of the fastest growing tech companies in the U.K

Our unique and innovative online platform enables our customers to electronically identify UK and international individuals and businesses. It is the only Know Your Customer (KYC) solution that also provides full sanction and Politically Exposed Person (PEP) screening and ongoing monitoring, allowing clients to use this one piece of technology for all their AML compliance needs.

Integrate SmartSearch’s capabilities into your own system

We know that combining SmartSearch technology with your own systems is beneficial for everyone. Our integration process can be fully complete in just 24 hours, so you can continue client onboarding with minimal disruption, and carry out AML checks using their existing data files. Integrating our capabilities with your own data saves you time and money, making AML compliance easier than ever.
