### "Seamless and Scalable KYC Solution for Fast-Growing Teams"

May 13, 2025

4.0

Sumsub has been a reliable partner in helping us onboard users quickly and stay compliant with global regulations. The platform is especially helpful when scaling to new markets, and their regional compliance knowledge is impressive. We've been able to reduce manual review times significantly and improve our conversion rate. I’d recommend Sumsub to any fintech or Web3 product looking to streamline verification.

Pros

The automation of KYC flows and the flexibility to customize verification rules per region have saved us countless hours. The user interface is clean and intuitive, and the integration process was smooth thanks to great API documentation.

Cons

Sometimes, support response time can be slightly delayed during high-demand periods. We'd also appreciate more transparency in pricing for custom volumes.

### "Highly recommended all-in-one service "

September 20, 2024

5.0

We started cooperation in 2019, and have been satisfied with the service since then. Of course, there might be some inaccuracies in some checks, but they are rare. The product is simple in use and offers a lot of useful features.

Pros

Sumsub is constantly expanding their product, offering more and more features

Cons

1\. New applicant page interface is significantly worse than the old one. 2. Sometimes support team requires too much time to answer some questions.

### "Does its job"

January 13, 2022

3.0

Pros

Able to detect fraud and fits kyc needs for onboarding users

Cons

Needing to press several buttons on multiple documents to uncheck something before clearing the examined user profile, for example to change a document status to approved. Sometimes there are bugs, it allowed users with multiple profiles if they sent in different ID (for example, in different languages on the ID and the system approved both despite having facial matched selfies). Sometimes foreign language docs date of birth is misread. Can't see for sure why someone is blacklisted

### "Great SDK and painless integration"

January 13, 2026

5.0

Overall, Sumsub has been a massive time-saver for our operations team. Before integrating them, we were manually reviewing a large percentage of documents, which slowed down our user onboarding significantly. The integration was smooth, and once we set up the verification logic in their 'Workflow Builder,' it essentially ran on autopilot. We now verify users in under a minute with a very high pass rate. While the pricing structure took a moment to understand fully, the ROI in terms of saved man-hours and increased conversion rates has been undeniable. It feels like a mature, robust platform rather than just a simple KYC tool.

Pros

The documentation is top-notch. We got the Web SDK up and running in a staging environment in less than an afternoon. The webhooks are reliable, and the sandbox mode is actually useful for testing edge cases.

Cons

Some of the more advanced API features could be better documented. Occasional false positives require manual review, but the dashboard makes it easy to handle them

### "The best solution on the market overall. "

December 23, 2021

4.0

Useful tool with very little alternatives on the market. Will keep using.

Pros

Feature - rich, The price is affordable and the support is great! The product development is in progress and the tool is getting better.

Cons

Periodic issues with processing speed. Insufficient explanation of various features causes misunderstanding from the side of audit. Mistakes in the legal field (e.g. wrong fields were blurred when this wasn't necessary, etc.) The lack of ability to screen company names against sanction lists apart from the full KYB.

### "SumSub is a great starting point for small FinTech startups"

January 13, 2022

5.0

They are great for compliance and KYC!

Pros

SumSub is easy to use, and they charge based on number of checks with no minimum, which makes it great for small startups who don't have the volume for other products. Their API's are straight forward, and their admin interface is effective.

Cons

The stats and bulk views aren't very effective. It's hard to get a sense of how easily our users are finding the experience. We think that most of them find it easy, but we don't actually have any metrics to know, except the number of complaints we get. Which is small, but the ones who do complain are generally stuck and unable to continue.
