Seamlessly integrate powerful KYC automation capabilities and real-time client data into your existing CLM and CRM workflows – with proven accuracy, security, and scalability
What is a KYC API and why does it matter?
A Know Your Customer API allows financial services firms and other regulated entities to:
Get 360 vision of corporate identities and client risk
Automate customer due diligence and identity verification processes
Reduce manual data entry and compliance risks
Integrate KYC processes into onboarding and client lifecycle management (CLM) systems
Reuse client data downstream
Maintain auditability and meet global KYC/AML regulatory requirements
Not all KYC APIs are created equal
Most KYC APIs offer basic automation and limited data integrations, ideal for simple onboarding, not enterprise banking needs.
The EC360 Corporate Digital Identity (CDI) platform is different. Global public data and private client information are integrated to accurately identify, verify and validate corporate clients. It is built for the complex, evolving KYC challenges faced by today’s banks, and regulated financial institutions to streamline operations at every step of the process.

FAQs
What makes the EC360 KYC API different from other KYC APIs?
Many KYC verification APIs on the market focus primarily on simple identity verification for client onboarding, offering limited functionality for the complex needs of banks and regulated financial institutions.
EC360 is purpose-built for enterprise banking use cases, where compliance, scalability, and auditability are non-negotiable. It delivers:
- Deep integration with CLM and CRM platforms, supporting end-to-end client lifecycle management
- Comprehensive client profiles with reusable data to streamline KYC refresh, remediation and perpetual KYC (pKYC) – well beyond what most APIs or traditional methods offer
- Full auditability with dynamic audit trails, original source documents and data lineage, helping clients meet the strictest regulatory expectations
EC360 enables the automated, fully auditable management of complex customer identities and identification documents, spanning corporate clients, UBO structures, and multi-jurisdictional entities.
Will the API integrate with our existing CRM or CLM system?
Yes, seamless integration is one of EC360’s key strengths. The API is specifically designed to work within the workflow of your existing CRM or CLM system, enabling automation across onboarding and ongoing compliance processes.
EC360 is proven in production with leading platforms such as PEGA and Capgemini’s pKYC sandbox ‘Perpetual KYC Catalyst’, and can also be integrated with custom-built systems and case management tools.
Is EC360 suitable for corporate KYC and complex ownership structures?
Absolutely. One of EC360’s primary differentiators is its ability to handle complex entity structures and advanced due diligence.
The API supports:
- Corporate KYC across global jurisdictions
- Advanced automation rules that source, standardize and integrate data, perform entity resolution and apply hierarchy rules
- UBO discovery and verification, even for complex, multi-layered ownership structures
This makes EC360 ideally suited for institutions that need to manage verified identities and perform advanced due diligence across corporate clients, large enterprises, and multi-jurisdictional entities.
Does the EC360 KYC API help ensure compliance with AML regulations?
Yes. The EC360 KYC API is designed to help financial institutions and regulated businesses ensure compliance with global Anti Money Laundering (AML) regulations.
It automates key AML processes such as PEP, sanctions, and adverse media screening, and supports advanced business verification and UBO checks for complex corporate entities. EC360 also maintains fully auditable workflows, detailed data lineage and retains original source documents all within a digital profile, making it easier to demonstrate Anti Money Laundering compliance to regulators.
By integrating EC360 with your existing CLM and CRM platforms, you can streamline AML controls, reduce manual checks, and handle sensitive customer information securely and in full compliance with evolving AML standards.
