The Saber Money KYC SDK enables merchants to seamlessly guide their users through the required KYC verification process. After user registration, merchants can redirect users to the KYC SDK, where they can complete verification steps tailored to the service and region.

KYC requirements vary by geography and the services utilized by the merchant. Saber Money configures these requirements for each merchant to ensure compliance and user experience fit.

Steps for KYC SDK:

1. Integrate the SDK:
   1. Set up the Saber KYC SDK in your application.
2. Create the User:
   1. Ensure the user is initialized in the Saber system.
3. Trigger KYC Verification:
   1. The SDK handles document collection and approval status updates.
4. Add a Bank Account (For Indian Users)
   1. This step is automated when the SDK is used.

Opening the KYC SDK

To open the KYC SDK, use the following steps:

1. Redirect User: After registering the user, redirect them to the Saber Money KYC SDK URL.
2. Pass Required Parameters: Ensure to pass the unique user ID and any other required parameters as specified in the KYC SDK documentation.
3. SDK Configurations: The Saber Team will set up configurations for each merchant, including specific KYC requirements based on the services utilized and the user’s region.

Note: For merchants using the Onramp SDK, KYC can also be triggered automatically when initiating a user’s first transaction within the SDK itself. This streamlines the process by embedding KYC verification into the initial transaction flow.

KYC Flows

Depending on user location and service, the KYC SDK offers tailored flows for Indian users, Indian users with passport-based verification, and non-Indian users. Here’s an overview of each flow:

Indian KYC

This flow follows a standard Indian KYC process with the following steps:

Personal Information: Users input personal details.

PAN Verification: Users provide PAN information for validation.

Aadhar Verification: Verification is done through Digilocker integration.

Live Selfie: Users capture a live selfie for identity verification.

Bank Account Verification (Optional): This step includes penny-drop verification to confirm bank account details. Depending on the merchant’s service, this step may be disabled.

Indian KYC (Passport)

In certain services, PAN verification may not be required. Instead, this flow uses:

Personal Information: Users provide basic details.

Passport Verification: The passport is used as the primary identity document.

Live Selfie: Selfie verification remains part of this flow.

Bank Account Verification (Optional): As in the standard Indian KYC, bank account verification through penny drop is optional and configurable.

Non-Indian KYC

For users outside of India, the KYC SDK adapts to local regulatory requirements:

Country-Specific Steps: Verification steps vary by country, including appropriate personal ID, address verification, and other region-specific requirements.

Selfie and Bank Verification: These steps are included based on local mandates and service configuration.
