Run the full bundle — ID, Liveness, Face Match, IP — free on the first 500 verifications/month, on every account. No card. Same engine paying customers use.
500 full KYC (know your customer) checks every month, forever. After that,
$0.33 per check. No contract, no minimums, no sales call — the same price
startups and large enterprises pay.
How it works
From sign-up to verified user in four steps.
Step 01
Create the workflow
Pick the checks you want — ID, liveness, face match, sanctions, address, age, phone, email, custom questions. Drag them into a flow in the dashboard, or post the same flow to our API. Branch on conditions, run A/B tests, no code required.
Step 02
Integrate
Embed natively with our Web, iOS, Android, React Native, or Flutter SDK. Redirect to a hosted page. Or just send your user a link — by email, SMS, WhatsApp, anywhere. Pick what fits your stack.
Step 03
User goes through the flow
Didit hosts the camera, the lighting cues, the mobile hand-off, and accessibility. While the user is in the flow, we score 200+ fraud signals in real time and verify every field against authoritative data sources. Result in under two seconds.
Step 04
You receive the results
Real-time signed webhooks keep your database in sync the moment a user is approved, declined, or sent to review. Poll the API on demand. Or open the console to inspect every session, every signal, and manage cases your way.

Startups, bake-off pilots, side projects.
500 checks/month covers most early-stage onboarding — enough to take a fintech, marketplace, crypto product, or iGaming launch from prototype through early traction without a vendor invoice. Larger teams use the same quota for bake-off pilots and staging traffic. No spend until check 501.

# Didit Free KYC — integrate in 5 minutes
You are integrating Didit's full KYC bundle (ID + Passive Liveness +
Face Match + Device & IP Analysis) into <my_stack>. The first 500 sessions every
month are free, forever, on every account — no credit card, no sales
call. Past 500 you keep using the same endpoint at $0.33 per session.
Every URL, header, and enum value below is canonical — do not paraphrase.
## 1. Provision an account
- Sign up: https://business.didit.me (no credit card required).
- Or provision programmatically: POST https://apx.didit.me/auth/v2/programmatic/register/
(returns an API key bound to the workspace + application).
- The 500-session monthly free quota is counted at the workspace level.
It resets at 00:00 UTC on the first of each month and applies to any
workflow that combines the four bundled features.
## 2. Create the KYC workflow (one time)
POST https://verification.didit.me/v3/workflows/
Authorization header: x-api-key: <your-api-key>
Body: workflow_label, features array with the four bundled entries
[
{ feature: "ID_VERIFICATION" },
{ feature: "LIVENESS" },
{ feature: "FACE_MATCH" },
{ feature: "IP_ANALYSIS" }
] (UPPERCASE — strict enum, do not lowercase)
This is the same workflow used in production at $0.33 per session.
Sessions counted under the 500-session free quota run on the same model
weights, the same edge nodes, the same Spain-Tesoro-attested pipeline.
There is no degraded model on the free tier.
## 3. Create a verification session for an end user
POST https://verification.didit.me/v3/session/
Body: workflow_id (from step 2), vendor_data (your own user id).
Response: session_url — redirect the user to it.
The hosted UI walks the user through document capture, selfie capture
(passive liveness), automatic face-match between portrait and selfie,
and Device & IP analysis on the originating connection. End-to-end inference is
sub-2 seconds across the full bundle.
## 4. Webhooks
- Register a webhook destination once via
POST https://verification.didit.me/v3/webhook/destinations/
Body: url, subscribed_events: ["session.verified", "session.review_started",
"session.declined", "kyc_expired"]
- Response includes secret_shared_key — store it.
- Every webhook delivery carries an X-Signature-V2 header you MUST verify
before trusting the payload. HMAC-SHA256 verification MUST run against the raw body bytes (the raw payload as Didit sent it) BEFORE any JSON parsing — re-serialising the parsed body changes whitespace and key order, which invalidates the signature.Algorithm:
1. sortKeys(payload) recursively
2. shortenFloats (truncate trailing zeros after the decimal point)
3. JSON.stringify the result
4. HMAC-SHA256 with the secret_shared_key
5. Hex-encode, compare to the X-Signature-V2 header.
## 5. Reading the session report
The session payload includes one object per bundled feature:
- id_verification — status, document_type, document_number, full_name,
date_of_birth, expiration_date, issuing_state, parsed address, image
quality scores, warnings.
- liveness — status, method ("PASSIVE"), score 0-100, reference_image,
warnings.
- face_match — status, similarity score 0-100, source ("DOCUMENT"),
target ("SELFIE").
- ip_analysis — status, ip, country, city, vpn, proxy, tor, hosting,
asn, abuse_score, risk warnings.
Statuses use exact casing: "Approved", "Declined", "In Review",
"Expired", "Not Finished".
## 6. Hard rules — do not change
- Base URL for /v3/* endpoints is verification.didit.me (NOT apx.didit.me).
- Feature enums are UPPERCASE: ID_VERIFICATION, LIVENESS, FACE_MATCH, IP_ANALYSIS.
- Auth header is x-api-key (lowercase, hyphenated).
- Webhook signature header is X-Signature-V2 (NOT X-Signature).
- Always verify webhook signatures before trusting payload data.
- Status casing matches exactly: "Approved", "Declined", "In Review",
"Expired", "Not Finished" (title-cased, space-separated).
## 7. Pricing reference (public)
- First 500 sessions per workspace per month: free, forever, no credit
card, on every account. Quota resets 00:00 UTC on the first of each month.
- Overflow past 500 in a month: $0.33 per session, billed only for the
sessions above the free quota. Same workflow, same endpoint, same
features, same response shape.
- No minimums, no contracts, no overage surprises. The full price table:
didit.me/pricing.
## 8. Verify your integration
- Sandbox starts on signup at https://business.didit.me — no separate flag.
- Test data: deterministic synthetic documents and selfies returned in
sandbox. Sandbox sessions do not count against the 500 monthly free quota.
- Switch to live: flip the application's environment toggle in console.

FAQ
Common questions
What is Didit?
Didit is infrastructure for identity and fraud — the platform we wished existed when we were building products ourselves: open, flexible, and developer-friendly, so it works as a real part of your stack instead of a black box you integrate around.
One API covers verifying people (KYC, know your customer), verifying businesses (KYB, know your business), screening crypto wallets (KYT, know your transaction), and monitoring transactions in real time — on a stack built to be:
Fast — sub-2-second p99 on every session
Reliable — in production with 1,500+ companies across 220+ countries
Secure — SOC 2 Type 1, ISO 27001, GDPR-native, and formally attested by Spain's financial regulator as safer than verifying someone in person
The footprint underneath: 14,000+ document types in 48+ languages, 1,000+ data sources, and 200+ fraud signals on every session. The Didit infrastructure dynamically learns from every session and gets better every day.
What is Free Know Your Customer (KYC)?
Free KYC is the 500 verifications every workspace gets every month, forever, on every Didit account. The free quota covers the full Know Your Customer (KYC) bundle — Identity Document Verification + Passive Liveness + Face Match + Internet Protocol (IP) Analysis — on the same POST /v3/session/ call as paid sessions.
Same engine. Same workflow. Same JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) response shape. Same Spain Tesoro / Banco de España (BdE) / Spanish Financial Intelligence Unit (SEPBLAC)-attested pipeline.
No credit card. No sales call. No expiry.
What exactly is free, and for how long?
The first 500 verification sessions per workspace per month are free, forever.
Free covers ID_VERIFICATION + LIVENESS + FACE_MATCH + IP_ANALYSIS on one POST /v3/session/ call.
Counter resets at 00:00 UTC on the first of each month.
No expiry date on the free tier.
No rollover, no per-account cap on how many months you stay inside the 500-session band.
Sandbox sessions are excluded from the meter — only live-environment sessions count toward the quota.
How fast is the verification for my end user?
The full flow normally takes under 30 seconds end-to-end — pick up the ID, snap the document, snap the selfie, done. That is the fastest in the market. Legacy KYC providers usually take more than 90 seconds for the same flow.
On the back end, Didit returns the result in under two seconds at p99, measured from the moment the user finishes the selfie to the moment your webhook fires. Mobile capture is tuned for slow phones and slow networks: progressive image compression, lazy software development kit load, and a one-tap hand-off from desktop to phone via QR code if the user starts on web.
Do I need a credit card or a sales call?
No to both. Drop a work email at business.didit.me, get an Application Programming Interface (API) key in seconds, open the sandbox from minute one.
We do not request a payment method to unlock the 500-session quota. There is no order form, no annual minimum, no sales conversation. The only time we ask for card details is when you choose to scale past the free tier.
What happens if a user fails, abandons, or expires?
Every session lands on one of seven clear statuses, so your code always knows what to do:
Approved — every check passed. Move the user forward.
Declined — one or more checks failed. You can allow the user to resubmit the specific failed step (for example, re-take the selfie) without re-running the whole flow.
In Review — flagged for compliance review. Open the case in the console, see every signal, decide approve or decline.
In Progress — user is mid-flow.
Not Started — link sent, user has not opened it yet. Send a reminder if it sits too long.
Abandoned — user opened the link but did not finish in time. Re-engage or expire.
Expired — the session link aged out. Create a new session.
A signed webhook fires on every status change, so your database always stays in sync. Abandoned and declined sessions are free.
Where does my customer data live and how is it protected?
Production data is processed and stored in the European Union by default, on Amazon Web Services. Enterprise contracts can request alternative regions for jurisdictions whose regulators require it.
Encryption everywhere. AES-256 at rest across every database, object store, and backup. Transport Layer Security 1.3 in transit on every API call, webhook, and Business Console session. Biometric data is encrypted under a separate Customer Master Key.
Retention is yours to control. Default retention is indefinite (unlimited) unless you configure shorter — between 30 days and 10 years per application — and you can delete any individual session at any time from the dashboard or the API.
Certifications: SOC 2 Type 1 (Type 2 audit in progress), ISO/IEC 27001:2022, iBeta Level 1 PAD, and a public attestation from Spain''s Tesoro / SEPBLAC / CNMV that Didit''s remote identity verification is safer than verifying someone in person. Full report at /security-compliance.
Is Didit compliant for my industry?
Didit ships compliant by default for the regulators that matter to identity infrastructure:
GDPR + UK GDPR — controller / processor split, full Data Processing Agreement published, lead supervisory authority named (Spain''s AEPD).
AMLD6 + EU AML Single Rulebook — 1,300+ sanctions, politically exposed person, and adverse-media lists screened in real time.
eIDAS 2.0 — EU Digital Identity Wallet aligned; reusable-identity ready.
MiCA (Markets in Crypto-Assets) — ready for crypto on-ramps, exchanges, and custodians.
DORA — Digital Operational Resilience Act, EU financial-services operational resilience.
BIPA, CUBI, Washington HB 1493, CCPA / CPRA — US biometric privacy (Illinois, Texas, Washington) and California consumer privacy.
UK Online Safety Act — age-gating and child-safety obligations.
FATF Travel Rule — originator and beneficiary data on crypto transfers, IVMS-101 interoperable.
