General FAQ
We’re Here to Help
Explore common questions about deployment, customization, and how Surt fits into your risk workflow.
What is IDV Verification?
It is a KYC solution that verifies the identity of your users through document scanning, liveness checks, and configurable verification steps all in a single flow.
Can we customize the verification steps?
Yes. You can build workflows with the steps relevant to your business, such as document scan, liveness, phone OTP, proof of address, and more. Each step can include conditional logic.
What document types are accepted?
Accepted document types are configurable based on your needs. The system supports passports, national IDs, and driver’s licenses, and can be set up to accept different document types depending on the country or user category.
What happens after a user completes verification?
The session is automatically evaluated against your acceptance criteria and assigned a result: Approved, Rejected, or sent to Manual Review for a human decision.
Can a user redo their verification?
Yes. Your team can trigger a re-verification from the session, which sends the user back through the flow.
What happens if a user starts verification but doesn't finish?
You can configure the behavior: either allow the user to resume where they left off, or require them to start a new session after a set inactivity period.
