Geolocation Verification for KYC & AML Compliance
Real-Time Location Intelligence That Stops Fraud Before It Starts
Location-Based Risk Decisions for Smarter Compliance
Geolocation data is the missing layer of context in digital identity verification.
With VPNs, proxies, and spoofing tools easily bypassing IP-based checks, financial regulators are now calling for GPS-verified geolocation verification during digital onboarding and AML monitoring.
iComply delivers a secure, scalable way to verify user location with GPS, Wi-Fi triangulation, and device intelligence—all processed locally on the user’s device via our edge computing architecture.
Whether you’re onboarding a new client or triggering enhanced due diligence, Geo-KYC helps you make jurisdictionally aware, risk-informed decisions in real time.
How Our Geolocation Verification Works
GPS & Device-Based Location Verification
Leverage true location data—not just IP addresses—using GPS, Wi-Fi, and cellular triangulation for accurate, spoof-resistant results.
Edge-Based Spoofing Detection
Our platform uses on-device edge computing to detect GPS tampering and emulator use—far beyond what server-side checks or VPN detection can offer.
Real-Time Risk Assessment
Use geolocation data as a dynamic risk signal in onboarding, transactions, or KYC refresh. Enforce geo-fencing, detect unusual access patterns, or trigger additional verification.
Cross-Border Compliance Rules
Define and enforce jurisdiction-specific onboarding flows or restricted-service areas. Easily comply with regional licensing, risk, and AML frameworks.
Integrated with AML abd KYB or KYC Identity Modules
Layer geolocation signals with identity verification, sanctions screening, and device fingerprinting for a 360° risk profile of every client.
Global Geo-KYC and Location Verification Coverage
iComply supports geolocation verification across 195 countries, using localized GPS data, Wi-Fi triangulation, and device-level metadata.
As regulations evolve—like the FDIC’s proposed amendments to the BSA Rule—we help you stay ahead with solutions built to meet location-aware KYC compliance, detect spoofing, and enforce geo-fencing at scale.
I love that we can adjust for regulatory changes or business needs without a big software build.
Stop Advanced Location Spoofing Before It Starts
Protect customers, meet AML location requirements, and stop fraud at the source.
