Some milestones you plan for. Others, you feel in your gut. Opening our new London HQ is a little bit of both.
From day one, Identomat’s story has been about building digital trust across borders. Our AI-powered identity verification and compliance automation platform already verifies identities from every corner of the world - so it feels only natural that our own journey has brought us to the heart of it all: London, the global financial technology hub where innovation, finance, and regulatory technology (RegTech) converge.
London represents a global stage - where fintech, banking, and compliance innovation collide. It’s a place where the rules of tomorrow are debated over coffee (or rather tea), where startups, enterprises, and regulators walk the same streets, and where ambition is as much a part of the skyline as Big Ben.
For Identomat, opening our London headquarters is more than another pin on the map. It’s about community, conversations, and being closer to the people and partners who are shaping the future of digital identity, KYC (Know Your Customer), and AML compliance (Anti-Money Laundering Compliance) in the UK and beyond.
Why London Matters for Digital Identity & Compliance
Opening our London office doesn’t replace where we’ve been - it adds to it. Think of it as another chapter in our passport, a new visa stamp on our journey. It means:
• More face-to-face time with partners, clients, and fintech innovators,
• A front-row seat to the UK’s financial services and regulatory landscape,
• And yes - probably more cups of tea than we can count.
This milestone reflects our journey from a bold vision to a company recognized across industries: from iGaming & Gambling compliance and telecom onboarding to banking & Fintech KYC and government digital transformation. Each challenge taught us resilience, each partnership fueled our ambition, and each client reminded us why we exist: to make identity verification, AML screening, and fraud prevention effortless and universal.
A Thank You From the Heart ❤️

London, we’ve arrived.
Frequently asked questions
Who needs to perform KYC?
KYC is a requirement for any business that needs to verify customer identities to comply with regulations and reduce fraud risks. Traditionally, this applied to banks, financial institutions, and payment providers. Today, the scope has expanded — crypto exchanges, neobanks, fintechs, gig platforms, gaming companies, and online marketplaces are all under pressure to implement robust KYC checks. Regulations such as the UK Online Safety Act further broaden the scope, making KYC essential for platforms where safety, trust, and identity verification are critical.
What is the best KYC software?
The “best” KYC software depends on your industry, geography, and compliance requirements. Some providers excel at global data coverage, others at risk intelligence or fraud detection. At Identomat, we believe the strongest solution is one that combines accuracy, speed, affordability, and compliance flexibility. That’s why our platform emphasizes adaptive liveness detection, high-precision OCR, and integrated AML + KYB checks — ensuring businesses of all sizes can meet evolving regulations without compromising on user experience.
How to choose a KYC provider?
Choosing a KYC provider comes down to balancing compliance, fraud prevention, and customer experience. Businesses should look closely at global coverage, document and biometric support, AML and KYB capabilities, integration options, and pricing transparency. The goal is not just to tick regulatory boxes, but to select a solution that helps you scale internationally, reduce onboarding friction, and strengthen customer trust. At Identomat, we encourage businesses to see KYC as more than compliance — it’s an opportunity to deliver faster onboarding, lower fraud risk, and higher user satisfaction.
