Didit

Overview

Didit brings identity verification and fraud workflows together behind one API, combining checks on people and businesses with AML screening and transaction monitoring. It is best suited to fintechs and marketplaces that need configurable verification flows across markets; the free allowance and pay-as-you-go option make it accessible to smaller teams, though usage costs can extend beyond a single session.

Its stated coverage spans 220+ countries, 14,000+ document types, 10,000+ AML datasets, and 1,000+ government and bureau data sources. That breadth is relevant to services operating internationally, but teams should still match the available checks to their own risk requirements.

Key features

Identity, business, and fraud checks

Didit combines document verification, liveness, face matching, business verification, AML screening, and transaction monitoring. Additional modules cover biometric authentication, passive liveness, age estimation, device and IP analysis, and phone or email OTP. This gives teams a broad set of steps to assemble into a workflow rather than treating identity checks as document capture alone. The trade-off is that a declined session can still contain billable checks.

A workflow builder and case management support operational review. Didit describes use cases including neobank KYC, B2B fintech KYB, crypto Travel Rule processes, and ongoing AML for marketplaces, making it most relevant where identity and risk checks are part of a continuing product workflow.

Developer tools, integrations, and security

Public API documentation, an MCP server, and SDKs for web, iOS, Android, React Native, and Flutter give engineering teams several ways to integrate. Ready-made Zapier, Shopify, and Salesforce integrations may suit teams already using those services. This API-centered approach is a strength for organizations building their own verification flow, but less compelling for buyers seeking a standalone, non-technical identity tool.

Didit lists SOC 2 Type 1 and Type 2, ISO/IEC 27001:2022, and iBeta Level 1 PAD. It says data is encrypted at rest with AES-256 and in transit with TLS 1.3, with sessions stored in the EU by default. Enterprise customers can enable in-country data residency subject to availability and configure retention from one month to ten years.

Pricing

The Free plan costs nothing, billed $0/ month, with no card required. It includes 500 full KYC verifications every month, covering ID, liveness, face match, and device and IP checks, plus the workflow builder, case management, and SDKs. This is a useful starting point for a small or early-stage operation, but the monthly cap limits its fit for higher verification volumes.

Pay as you go costs $0.33, paid once, billed $0.33 per full KYC. It includes 25+ publicly priced modules and automatic volume discounts, with no monthly minimum, seat fees, or contract. That flexibility suits variable usage and avoids committing to a subscription, though bills can include checks from a declined session.

Enterprise has custom pricing under a custom annual contract, with committed-volume pricing, custom legal terms, a 99.99% uptime SLA, data residency, and priority human support. Its 24/7 shared Slack channel and named success manager make it the fit for organizations that need ongoing support and enterprise data controls; the annual commitment is a less flexible choice for smaller or unpredictable workloads. Didit has no free trial.

Platforms

Didit supports Android, iOS, web, and API access. Its SDKs also cover React Native and Flutter, extending the integration options for mobile product teams.

Who it's for

Didit is a strong fit for fintechs, crypto businesses, and marketplaces that need identity, business verification, and AML processes connected through an API. Teams with modest monthly volumes can start on the free plan, while variable usage can move to pay as you go without a monthly minimum. Organizations requiring enterprise support, committed-volume terms, or in-country data residency should consider Enterprise. Buyers who need only a narrow verification step or prefer a non-API workflow may find the breadth unnecessary.

Pros and cons

• Pros: A single API spans user and business verification, AML, and transaction monitoring, which suits workflows that would otherwise involve separate checks.
• Pros: The free plan includes up to 500 full KYC verifications per month and core workflow tools, giving smaller teams room to start without a card.
• Pros: Pay as you go has no monthly minimum, seat fees, or contract, so it accommodates uneven usage.
• Pros: Enterprise offers a 99.99% uptime SLA, configurable retention, residency controls subject to availability, and named support.
• Cons: Declined sessions can still include billable checks, so a rejected outcome does not necessarily mean zero cost.
• Cons: Enterprise requires a custom annual contract, limiting flexibility for teams not ready to commit.

Alternatives

Shufti is worth considering for teams that want a free option capped at 10 verifications per month and a free trial. Entrust Certificate Manager is a paid alternative with web, mobile, API, Linux, and self-hosted platform support. Alloy Embedded and Footprint are other paid options with web, mobile, and API support.

Jumio suits buyers seeking enterprise identity verification with custom pricing. Ondato may fit teams looking for business onboarding, with its KYB plan starting at €600 a month and pricing dependent on volume, selected solutions, features, and additional checks. Socure is an option for document verification, with DocV priced at $0.80, paid once for government ID scans and selfies covering IDs from 195+ countries. Stripe Identity may suit a US-focused ID-number lookup need: its lookup costs $0.50, paid once and is currently limited to US Social Security numbers.

Verdict

Choose Didit if your product needs identity and fraud workflows through an API, particularly across multiple markets or for ongoing AML operations. Its free monthly KYC allowance and contract-free pay-as-you-go pricing provide a practical way to start and scale variably. Look elsewhere if you need predictable costs for every declined session or cannot take on a custom annual enterprise contract.
