AML/CTF identity verification

One-off AML identity verification for Australian firms — $20 per individual

Verify a client's identity when you actually need to — no subscription, no minimum volume. Enliven Co runs a full AML/CTF identity check for $20 per individual and $30 per entity (KYB), covering photo ID document checks, a biometric face match, and a certificate you can put straight on the client file.

Sanctions, politically exposed person (PEP) and adverse media screening is performed using ComplyAdvantage, a third-party financial crime data provider. Its data includes the DFAT Consolidated List, the UN Security Council Consolidated List and the OFAC sanctions lists. Possible matches are flagged to your firm for review and are never automatically cleared.

How a one-off verification works

Built for accountants, lawyers and advisers who need a thorough identity check on a single client, not an enterprise onboarding platform.

Send the secure link

Enter your client's name, email and mobile. We issue a single-use verification link by email or SMS from Enliven Co.

02

Client verifies in minutes

The client captures their photo ID and a live selfie. We extract the document data, test the document for authenticity and run a biometric face match.

Pricing

Verifications returned for review

Standard pricing covers verifications that clear automated screening. Where screening identifies a potential PEP, sanctions or adverse media match, the verification is returned with a "Review" status and an additional $10 fee applies for the preparation of a ComplyAdvantage Screening Review Report. The report sets out each potential match, related media articles and source links, so your AML/CTF Compliance Officer can assess the matches and record the outcome on your client file. Enliven Co prepares the report; the assessment and final risk decision remain with your organisation.

Frequently asked questions

Can I get a one-off AML identity verification without a subscription?
Yes. Enliven Co provides one-off AML/CTF identity verification at $20 per individual, and $30 per entity (KYB). There is no subscription, no minimum volume and no platform fee — you pay per verification.
How long does an AML identity check take?
Most individual verifications are completed within minutes of the client submitting their documents. You receive an email the moment a client is verified, and the AML verification certificate is available to download immediately.
What documents does the client need?
An Australian driver licence, an Australian passport or a foreign passport, plus a live selfie for the biometric face match. Clients without photo ID can provide two secondary documents instead.
Do you screen for PEP, sanctions and adverse media?
Yes. Screening is performed using ComplyAdvantage, a third-party financial crime data provider whose data includes the DFAT, UN and OFAC sanctions lists. Any possible match is flagged to your firm for review and determination — matches are never automatically cleared.
What happens if a verification is returned for review?
If screening identifies a potential PEP, sanctions or adverse media match, the verification is returned with a "Review" status. For an additional $10, we prepare a ComplyAdvantage Screening Review Report setting out each potential match, related media articles and source links. Your AML/CTF Compliance Officer reviews the report, decides whether the matches relate to your client and records the outcome on the client file.
Does the client need to create an account?
No. You send a secure verification link by email or SMS. The client completes the check on their phone — no login, no app download.
