Compare SEON vs Jumio

About Jumio

First formed as an identity verification solution, the company ended up expanding into AML.  In recent years, the company has deployed a number of IDV tools, such as its Liveness Detection system, and Optical Character Recognition (OCR), used for reading text on uploaded pictures of ID documents.

Jumio Key Features

  • The company’s core product is a complete end-to-end solution, the KYX Platform, which brings together the many individual modules they offer.
  • Jumio specializes in identity verification and offers businesses access to biometric facial recognition and liveness detection for authentication as well as “live verification experts” that compare the user’s selfie with the identification provided. They also are able to analyze the authenticity of ID documents.
  • Phone and email verification modules are present as well as a device fingerprinting module to uncover potential fraudsters.
  • They offer pre-set rules for AML monitoring that screen new users against global watchlists and PEP data.

Pros of Jumio
  • Jumio offers a comprehensive eKYC platform that includes biometric authentication as well as other common identity verification and fraud prevention solutions.
  • They work with a range of partners that are able to integrate Jumio’s tech with ease including OneSpan, TruNarrative, and ForgeRock.
  • An intuitive no-code orchestration that’s able to be connected with any existing risk system.

Cons of Jumio
  • Offering such a large suite of solutions for identity verification and fraud detection will certainly increase costs, which might be too much for smaller businesses. 
  • Potential for customer churn if the biometric authentication causes issues for the person validating themselves.
  • Limited data enrichment capabilities with no access to live data, which in turn can create issues due to some data becoming stale.
