Discover How Companies Win
“One core piece of data we get from SEON is the ability to profile customers based on a phone number. Because what we do is through WhatsApp, being able to check social signals really helps us get a better sense of how real the user is. It’s a tool in our toolkit that is pretty unique.”
Jonathan Kleinmann

“The email analysis tool is fantastic in B2B because we work with a lot of custom emails. What we then do is create custom SEON rules, test them and combine them with credit bureau data to build our own fuzzy logic. It accelerates credit scoring down to under a minute, with zero added friction.”

FAQ
What is digital footprint software?
Digital footprint software analyzes signals tied to an email address, phone number or IP to reveal a person’s real online presence in real time. It checks for registered profiles on online platforms, disposable emails, data breach history and IP risk, then combines these into a risk indicator used to tell genuine users apart from bots, synthetic identities and fraud rings.
How does digital footprint stop fraud before KYC?
Fraud often enters during onboarding, before identity verification begins. By reading email, phone and IP signals in real time, teams can flag disposable emails, VPNs and coordinated signups, then filter out bad actors before they reach the KYC queue. Screening early cuts manual reviews and verification costs downstream.
How does SEON handle data privacy when performing lookups?
SEON accesses publicly available information and commercial data sources. Whether performing a reverse email lookup or a phone check, our data handling follows privacy-by-design principles and supports compliance with GDPR and similar regulations.
How does SEON handle privacy regulations like GDPR?
SEON collects device attributes rather than personal identifiers. Data collection follows privacy-by-design principles and configuration options let you align the fingerprinting scope with your regulatory requirements and privacy policies.
What if a legitimate customer has minimal online presence?
A limited digital footprint is one risk signal among many. While SEON specializes in finding social media profiles by email or phone, our scoring considers the full context — including device intelligence, behavioral patterns and transaction history. Thin-file customers can still be approved based on other positive indicators.
