8. Configurations: Verification levels
In Configurations, Verification Levels play a key role in managing the client verification process. Each client type (e.g., Personal or Business) can have its own set of verification levels, which are linked to different verification statuses. These levels determine how a client progresses through authentication, ensuring compliance with KYC (Know Your Customer) requirements.
Use Cases
-
Multi-Step KYC
Financial institutions can define verification levels such as “Email,” “Phone,” “Identity”, with statuses progressing from init to approved for enhanced security.
-
Business vs. Personal Clients
Verification processes can be tailored—business accounts may require additional documents and higher verification levels than personal accounts.
-
Automation & Compliance
The system can automatically update a client’s “verified” status when they reach a specific level/status threshold (e.g., “email/pending” or “identity/approved”), ensuring compliance without manual intervention.

How Verification Levels and Statuses Appear in Clients
1. Client Type Dependency
If you create a verification level for “Personal,” only Personal clients will see that level.
Similarly, levels for “Business” apply only to Business clients.
2. Edit a Client
Go to Clients → Edit (pencil icon).
In the General section, you’ll see Verification level and Verification status dropdowns.
The dropdown options are pulled from the Configurations → Verification Levels you defined.
3. Cannot Delete in-Use Items
If a client is already assigned a certain verification level or status, you cannot remove it from the configuration.
You can rename or update the item, but full deletion is blocked to preserve data integrity.
Key Points to Remember
- Client Type Binding: Each verification level is tied to a specific client type (Personal or Business, etc.).
- Multiple Statuses per Level: You can define as many statuses as needed to reflect each step (e.g., init, pending, completed).
- No Deletion If In Use: Levels or statuses assigned to real clients can’t be removed.
- Properties & Language Fields: Allows storing custom data or translations for each level/status, enabling localized or extended flows.
Verification Levels in Configurations enable you to create structured, multi-step KYC (Know Your Customer) processes for each client type. By pairing these levels with custom statuses, you can tailor how a client progresses from “Init” to “Pending” to “Completed,” ensuring each user meets the compliance and verification standards required for their account.
