One platform across the whole customer lifecycle
WatchEye is built around four core pillars that together cover onboarding, identity verification, watchlist screening and ongoing monitoring.
Customer Onboarding
A complete onboarding solution integrating identity verification, screening and risk assessment into a single workflow — standalone or via API.
Identity Management
Verify identities using government documents through the DVS, biometric facial verification with liveness detection, and OCR document scanning.
Watchlist Screening
Screen against PEPs, international sanctions, regulatory and criminal watchlists, adverse media sources and court records.
Ongoing Monitoring
Automated, scheduled monitoring of your entire customer base, with immediate alerts to any new matches or changes.
Five steps from integration to ongoing monitoring
WatchEye simplifies the process into a connected workflow, so your organisation stays secure and compliant with minimal effort.
Connect via API or portal
Deliver a complete onboarding experience. WatchEye allows both SaaS and API access — integrate directly into your systems, use the secure browser-based portal, or bulk-upload your existing customer base
IDV & KYC checks
Instantly perform identity verifications and customer due diligence. Validate driver's licences, passports and Medicare cards, add biometric facial verification with liveness detection, and cross-reference against the DVS and authoritative databases.
Tailor your screening programs
Configure screening with no-code, customisable rules. Screen against PEPs and sanctions, adverse media and criminal court cases, and set matching sensitivity and country filters to fit your risk policy.
Multi-file monitoring & scheduling
Set up as many monitoring programs as needed within one system, and set the frequency of checks — daily, weekly, fortnightly or monthly to fit your operational workflow.
Ongoing customer due diligence
Meet Ongoing Customer Due Diligence requirements through continuous monitoring. When a scheduled check finds a new match, WatchEye creates an Event and notifies your team, building a complete audit trail as you review and action it.

Is WatchEye a SaaS Portal only?
add
Is WatchEye a SaaS Portal only?
No. WatchEye is available as both a secure SaaS platform and a fully featured API. Whether you prefer a ready-to-use web portal or want to embed WatchEye directly into your own applications, you’ll have access to the same powerful capabilities. This includes identity verification, AML and KYC screening, ongoing monitoring, configurable workflows, watchlists, adverse media, business verification, and the full suite of data sources and compliance features.
Unlike many providers that offer either a portal or an API with reduced functionality, WatchEye delivers the same enterprise-grade platform through both deployment options. The choice comes down to what best suits your business, whether that’s a no-code SaaS solution, a fully integrated API, or a combination of both.

Pricing
How is WatchEye costed and is it user-based like other systems?
add
How is WatchEye costed and is it user-based like other systems?
No. WatchEye is not licensed on a per user basis. Unlike many compliance platforms that charge for every additional user, WatchEye includes unlimited users as standard. Whether your organisation has one user or one thousand, your licensing costs remain the same. Instead, WatchEye is priced based on the AML/CTF services you choose to activate and your transaction usage. This gives you the flexibility to enable only the capabilities your organisation requires, such as identity verification, sanctions screening, adverse media, ongoing monitoring, or enhanced due diligence.
There are no limits or additional fees based on the number of customers you onboard. Ongoing monitoring costs are determined by the number of monitoring profiles you activate and the monitoring frequency you configure. This transparent, usage-based pricing model allows organisations to scale without worrying about user licences or seat restrictions.

Does WatchEye have KYC Identity Verification available?
add
Does WatchEye have KYC Identity Verification available?
Yes. WatchEye includes three flexible identity verification options to suit different risk profiles and customer onboarding requirements. Our flagship solution, IDPass, combines document verification with advanced biometrics, including facial recognition, liveness detection, and AI-powered deepfake and presentation attack detection. Customers simply receive a secure verification link via SMS or email and complete the entire identity verification process on their smartphone in minutes.
For organisations that prefer a more hands-on approach, WatchEye also supports one-to-one assisted identity verification, allowing your staff to verify identity documents and customer information directly within the platform. For lower-risk use cases where government document verification may not be required, WatchEye also offers non-document identity verification, using trusted alternative data sources to verify an individual’s identity quickly and efficiently.
Whether you need fully automated digital onboarding, assisted verification, or low-friction identity checks, WatchEye is the only solution offering multiple ways to identify your customers within the one system.
