Where SSN Checks Deliver The Most Value

SSN verification checks deliver the most value immediately after collecting basic PII in high-impact U.S. onboarding journeys such as bank account opening, credit decisions, tax and accountancy onboarding, renting, utilities, and payroll.

In 2025, industry reporting linked roughly $3.3 billion in exposure to synthetic identities at U.S. lenders, underscoring the ROI of this early control.

With tighter Customer Identification Program (CIP) and Know Your Customer (KYC) scrutiny, supported by FATF recommendations and escalating enforcement, clear, auditable SSN outcomes provide examiner-ready evidence. They also connect seamlessly to step-up checks such as Document Verification and Biometric Verification & Liveness when higher assurance is required.

ComplyCube returns a clear pass or fail outcome in seconds, with timestamps and reason codes that map to your Customer Identification Program policies across all 50 states, Washington, D.C., and relevant U.S. territories.

ComplyCube corroborates structure, state or territory issuance metadata, and mortality screening, then applies consistency rules to reduce false positives. Results are deterministic and repeatable, and each decision is logged with the data points that drove it.

Trust is reinforced by enterprise controls such as encryption in transit and at rest, role-based access, audit logs, and alignment with recognized standards, including ISO 27001:2022, ISO 9001:2015, and SOC 2.
