An early-stage fintech company offers comprehensive infrastructure for developing, launching, and expanding consumer and corporate credit card programs. With its custom API, this company enables smaller organizations, particularly those that previously lacked the means to create such solutions, to build applications that support and scale successful credit card programs.
The company’s operating system is designed to adapt to the needs of fintech firms, financial institutions, and embedded finance providers. However, for clients of this caliber, proper business verification and monitoring are vital. Without the proper resources to verify new business applicants and enrich customer records, the growth trajectory for this company is limited.
Discover how the Markaaz Global Business Identity Platform empowered this fintech company to access the most accurate business data, accelerate verification and validation processes, and automate approval decisions.
Like thousands of organizations in the fintech space, the company struggled with a tedious business verification and monitoring process. Matching small businesses to a single data record was challenging due to minor inconsistencies like spelling mistakes and partial addresses. Although the company wanted to scale its customer base, it couldn’t sacrifice its qualification standards to do so.
This company spent countless hours manually verifying fintech firms, financial institutions, and embedded finance providers through state registries. Without B2B data providers to unify business records across public and private sources, it relied on human analysts to match elements like a business’s legal name, DBA (Doing Business As), address, national ID, tax ID, and more. The verification process was time-consuming and error-prone, leading to missed revenue opportunities.
With investors from leading fintech firms and Fortune 500 companies, this company is on a growth trajectory and requires more efficient workflows to continue scaling. It significantly lacked automated processes, particularly for business verification, and aimed to automate approvals for specific customer segments, such as businesses with loans between $50,000 and $100,000.
Under anti-money laundering (AML) regulations, this company must monitor changes in business risk to ensure the organizations it has relationships with are reputable. However, its manual business verification process lacked elements of compliance reporting, such as checking whether companies had active sanctions, and required more comprehensive B2B data enrichment.
While state registries house critical business details, anything from a recent change in address to a mistyped postal code could result in an unmatched business record, making it impossible for the company to verify businesses with confidence. Enter the Markaaz Global Identity Platform, which leverages proprietary data-matching algorithms that deliver a 30% match rate improvement versus competitors.

High confidence refers to the match quality grading scale used by the Markaaz Advanced Match API, which links company business records to records in the Directory. It also provides a Markaaz ID, or unique identifier, for every entity in the Directory. Through the Directory, the company was able to save time verifying businesses and automate approvals with configurable verification criteria.
