Didit vs Veriff: key differences in price, coverage and scope

Last reviewed: 23 October 2026 · Not legal advice

If you are weighing Didit vs Veriff, you probably already know both can read a passport and check that a real person is holding the phone. This post sets out the differences that change a buying decision: list prices and plan minimums, document and language coverage, fraud and liveness testing, anti-money laundering (AML) screening, business verification (KYB), what happens after onboarding, and how each one integrates.

We build Didit, so read this as one side of the comparison. Every Veriff fact below comes from Veriff's own public pages as we read them on 23 October 2026, and each one is cited. Where Veriff is stronger, we say so. Prices and features change, so check both vendors' pages before you sign.

Didit vs Veriff at a glance

Veriff column: Veriff's public pages, read on 23 October 2026. Didit column: docs.didit.me.

Pricing: per-check prices against plan minimums

This is where the two differ most. Veriff publishes three self-serve plans. Essential costs $0.80 per verification with a $49 monthly minimum and is described as fully automated. Plus costs $1.39 with a $99 minimum and adds verification specialists, session video and fraud features called Risk Insights, FaceBlock and CrossLinks. Premium costs $1.89 with a $209 minimum and adds a branded flow, session deletion by API and bulk export.^[1] Above that, the Enterprise plan is quoted by sales, is described as best for 5,000+ verifications a month, and offers volume discounts.^[1][2]

Didit prices each check on its own, and you pay only for the checks a session actually runs. A full ID check, meaning the document, passive liveness, face match and device and IP analysis, comes to $0.33.^[11]

Two pricing models, as each vendor publishes them.

The add-ons show the same pattern. On Veriff's self-serve plans, a PEP (politically exposed person) and sanctions check adds $0.64 per verification, ongoing monitoring adds $0.09, and two-year data retention adds $0.30.^[1] At Didit, AML screening is $0.20 per check and ongoing AML monitoring is $0.07 per monitored profile per year.^[11][24] Data retention is a setting from 1 month to 10 years rather than a paid add-on.^[18]

Two points in Veriff's favour on pricing: its Enterprise FAQ says there are no setup or implementation charges, and that you are not charged for resubmission attempts, only for verification sessions.^[2] Didit also bills a feature only when it finishes.^[11]

Coverage and the verification flow

On paper, coverage is close. The two vendors do not count documents or territories the same way, so test the documents your users actually hold.

Fraud prevention and liveness

Liveness detection is where Veriff holds a stronger lab result. Veriff states that its liveness conforms to ISO/IEC 30107-3 at Level 1 and Level 2, tested by the iBeta lab.^[8] Didit holds iBeta Level 1 under the same standard: the lab ran 360 presentation attacks across six attack categories, and none got through.^[17]

Didit holds a different kind of evidence. Its certifications page states that after a year-long supervised test from November 2024 to July 2025, Spain's Tesoro Público, Banco de España, SEPBLAC and CNMV concluded that Didit's NFC and liveness verification is at least as safe as an in-person ID check under anti-money laundering rules.^[17]

On security audits the two are level on the main frameworks. Veriff holds ISO/IEC 27001:2022, extended to ISO/IEC 27017 and 27018, and SOC 2 Type II.^[7] Didit holds SOC 2 Type 2 (July 2026), ISO/IEC 27001:2022 and the ISO/IEC 27017 and 27018 extensions.^[17] On data location, Veriff says personal data sits on AWS servers mainly in the EEA region,^[22] and Didit processes and stores data in the EU by default.^[18]

AML, KYB and what happens after onboarding

Most teams start with identity verification and then need screening, business checks and monitoring. This is where the scope of the two products differs.

AML screening. Veriff screens against sanctions and PEP lists including OFAC, UN, HMT, EU and DFAT, with sanctions updated every 15 minutes, PEP profiles checked daily and more than 8 million adverse media profiles.^[5] Didit screens against 1,300+ global watchlists covering sanctions, PEPs, criminal records and adverse media, with a match score and a risk score for every hit.^[14]

Business verification. Veriff states its KYB product covers over 300 jurisdictions, with 1,500 data points from 5,000 sources, and does not publish a price.^[6] Didit sells registry checks in three tiers (Lite from $2.00, Shareholders, and ultimate beneficial owners), screens the company and each owner and officer, and can send each beneficial owner through their own identity check.^[15]

After onboarding. Didit's transaction monitoring scores every fiat or crypto transaction against real-time rules, opens alerts and cases, and can send a user back through verification when a rule asks for it. Crypto wallet screening runs inside the same module.^[16] Veriff's product page lists identity verification, proof of address, database verification, age validation and estimation, AML screening, biometric authentication, liveness, Fraud Protect, Fraud Intelligence and business verification. It does not list transaction monitoring or wallet screening.^[3]

The lifecycle after a verification. Transaction monitoring is the step only one of the two vendors lists.

Human review and who makes the decision

Veriff's model suits teams that want the vendor to look at borderline cases for them.^[1] Didit's suits teams that want to keep the decision, the evidence and the thresholds in-house.^[21]

Integration and developer experience

Both integrate the same way: create a session through the API, send the user to a hosted page or open a mobile SDK, and receive the result by webhook.

Which one fits your team

Switching from Veriff to Didit

Most switches run both vendors side by side for a while. A short plan keeps the risk low:

• List the checks you run today on Veriff, plan by plan and add-on by add-on.
• Rebuild the same workflow in Didit's workflow builder and price it on the pricing page.
• Map Veriff's decision statuses to Didit's Approved, Declined and In Review in your backend.
• Test with the documents and countries your users actually send.
• Route a share of new sign-ups to Didit and compare approval rates and cost.
• Set data retention and webhooks before you move the rest of the traffic.

How Didit helps teams switching from Veriff

Didit gives you identity verification, AML screening, business verification and transaction monitoring behind one API, with a public price on each check. See the Veriff alternative page for the side-by-side, or the pricing page to price your workflow.
