Aella Credit, a Nigerian Fintech company providing instant credit and payment solutions, faced a common problem among businesses: slow and inefficient identity verification. This was a major hindrance to the smooth operation of their business, as customers in need of loans often required them as soon as possible.
Because of this, Verified.Africa stepped in to provide a solution that would make the process of onboarding and verifying customers a swift and seamless experience.
The Challenge: Slow and Inefficient Identity Verification
Aella Credit places a high priority on verifying the identities of their customers, as they lend money to individuals who need to make quick payments. However, the company was faced with several challenges using its previous identity verification solution, including constant lags, downtime, backlogs, and errors.
This problem with the constant delays needed to be resolved to enable Aella’s customers to perform transactions and obtain loans promptly.
The Solution: Verified.Africa’s International Passport Verification
Verified.Africa’s goal is to provide solutions that enable businesses to efficiently and swiftly onboard their customers while verifying their identities in the process.
To resolve the challenges faced by Aella Credit, Verified.Africa provided the solution for Aella Credit to verify the identities of their customers. This is done through the International Passport verification service, which is linked to the National Identification Number (NIN) that is required for every Nigerian citizen.
By utilising both the NIN and International Passport details, Aella Credit verified their customers’ identities in a matter of seconds, as opposed to days. Another key advantage of Aella’s partnership with Verified.africa is the prevention of loan defaults that could potentially lead to financial instability for the company.
By utilising Verified.africa’s robust KYC solution, Aella is able to accurately verify the identity of its customers and assess their creditworthiness, thereby minimising the risk of loan defaults and ensuring the financial stability of the business.
