KYB API FAQ
How can I use Enigma data via an orchestration platform? How does that integration, set up, and ongoing process work?
The majority of KYB orchestration platforms partner with Enigma to enable their customers to power their KYB workflows with Enigma's data. These partners will help you integrate Enigma's KYB API into your workflow with minimal effort. Once integrated, Enigma’s data would flow into your regular workflow. Contact us if have questions about which orchestration platforms would be the right fit for you.
Will all attributes be returned, even if null?
If the KYB API returns a match, then all attributes will be returned, even if null.
How can I retrieve a business’s ultimate beneficial owner (UBO) from Enigma?
Enigma does not offer a data on a business’s UBO. However, Enigma can verify whether a UBO is associated with a business through the SoS registration. If you handle a high volume of UBO verifications and are interested in participating in a larger consortium on this data, please contact us.
Does Enigma offer manual lookups of companies that aren’t automatically surfaced?
Enigma does not currently offer manual lookups of companies. However, Enigma partners with most major workflow platforms that offer manual lookups. Contact us if you’d like our recommendation on a workflow platform partner for manual lookups.
Does Enigma offer document retrieval?
Enigma does not currently offer document retrieval. For infrequent lookup needs, document retrieval can be done by looking up the business directly on the Secretary of State website for the state the business' primary domestic registration. For frequent lookup needs, Enigma works with workflow platform partners that offer automated document retrieval. Contact us if you’d like our recommendation on a workflow platform partner for document retrieval.
How is US KYB different from global KYB? Do all businesses have a federal ID?
KYB regulations and data accessibility vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Conducting business in the U.S. with a global entity requires that a financial institution adheres to U.S. regulations, including surfacing any available registration filings and conducting KYC check on the ultimate beneficial owner (UBO). While all US businesses have a TIN/EIN to verify against, other countries may not provide this information. Global KYB requires specialized data service providers that can verify across multiple countries.
Does Enigma offer KYB for businesses registred outside the U.S?
Enigma offers best-in-class U.S. business data and identity verification services. We do not have plans to expand our offering outside the U.S. Contact us if you’d like our recommendation on a global partner.
