Scan Types
Four Ways to Screen
NameScan covers individual PEP and sanctions checks, enhanced adverse media, business verification, and identity confirmation. Use one or all four — every scan type is available on every account.
Individual Screening (Sapphire)
Screen any individual against 1,500+ global watchlists covering PEP lists, sanctions registers, and law enforcement databases. Results return in seconds with match confidence scoring and a downloadable PDF report.
Enhanced Screening (Emerald)
Everything in Sapphire, plus adverse media analysis across thousands of global news sources. Identifies negative coverage categorised by risk type — FRAUD, SANCTIONS, CRIME, REGULATORY — that watchlists alone may miss.
Company Screening (KYB)
Verify businesses against corporate registries, sanctions lists, and beneficial ownership records. Identify UBOs, check entity sanctions status, and confirm corporate structure before a relationship starts.
ID Verification
Verify identity documents against issuing authority records and run biometric liveness checks. Confirms your customer is who they say they are — with DVS integration for AU and NZ.
