PassFort is a UK SaaS-based workflow platform for identity verification, customer onboarding, and risk analysis. Its software delivers data from over 25 third-party providers and automates the collection, verification, and secure storage of customer and supplier due diligence documentation.

KYC regulations are a fact of life in industries ranging from financial services to real estate and online gambling. Current tools are slow to set up, expensive, and provide a terrible end-user experience.

PassFort enables regulated financial services companies to rapidly onboard customers and manage risk and compliance standards throughout the customer lifecycle, helping them build a data ecosystem thanks to pre-built connectors to more than 25 data providers.
