Identity verification is a critical checkpoint in user onboarding – but it's also a common point where users abandon the process. Losing users at this stage (“drop-off”) can be costly, wasting the marketing and acquisition efforts that brought them to sign up in the first place. This article examines why users drop off during KYC (Know Your Customer) or KYB (Know Your Business) checks and outlines best practices to keep them engaged.

Money laundering and related financial crimes pose a serious global threat, with an estimated $800 billion to $2 trillion laundered worldwide each year.
