Fourthline‘s Modular Identity Platform helps banks, fintechs, and non-financial businesses build secure, seamless, and tailored identity solutions.
Whether you need to verify a client’s identity or conduct anti-money laundering (AML) screening, you can choose from standalone product modules or one of Fourthline’s pre-built solutions.
As explained by Fourthline, the solutions can be “as lightweight or as robust as needed.”
Together, they will help you map out a strategy “that meets your current needs and anticipates future requirements to ensure the longevity and adaptability of your identity verification setup.”
As noted by Fourthline, modular identity platforms “combine different features and functionalities to verify your clients’ identities, combat fraud, or meet compliance regulations.”
Each of these can be tailored “to your specific needs depending on your business model and risk policy.”
For example, in the case of identity verification, “a modular platform breaks down the process into selectable modules that can be customized and scaled.”
Each module handles different “aspects of the process, such as document verification, biometrics, or location checks.”
This component-based approach is “more convenient and cost-efficient than one-size-fits-all KYC solutions.”
It makes it simpler to verify and “authenticate your clients’ identities across different scenarios and stages of the client lifecycle.”
It is also more cost-efficient since you “only pay for what you use.”
Regulated and non-regulated financial businesses and non-financial companies are already benefiting from Fourthline’s Modular Identity Platform.
Their solutions power the identity verification and client onboarding flows “for partners from all over Europe and beyond.”
Some of the industries that they serve include:
- Banking
- Neobanking
- Neobrokerage
- Fintech
- Telecom
- Airline

Since every business is unique, there is “no universal solution for all.”
However, there are several crucial factors that companies “should take into account when choosing a suitable identity verification solution,” including:
- The regulatory requirements within your industry
- Onboarding procedures, customer experience, and identity verification needs
- The threat vectors and fraud risks you are exposed to
- Organizational structure and technology-readiness
- Future scalability and market expansion needs
- Budget
Fourthline’s platform provides a highly adaptable “approach to identity verification. It allows you to combine different products and design solutions to satisfy a range of use cases across Europe and beyond.”
It integrates effortlessly via “a single API and offers the industry’s biggest and most comprehensive set of identity verification features.
Companies can choose from seven product groups,” including:

- Location – confirm the client’s actual physical location and address
- AML screening & monitoring – one-time checks or daily monitoring to ensure your clients aren’t sanctioned or politically exposed persons
