Pay Check - Anti Money Laundering Process

Pay Check - Anti Money Laundering Process

All Pay Check Anti Money Laundering checks are completed through Amiqus, presenting a streamlined checking process that can be completed in a matter of minutes, and does not require any documentation to be certified.

The standard Amiqus request will ask you to upload a proof of address document, such as a bank statement or a utility bill that has been dated within the past six months. If you are based in the UK, you will also be asked for 12 months of address history (this just means letting us know your address(es) for the past 12 months so that it can be matched to databases such as the electoral roll).

You will then be asked to upload a copy of your proof of identity document, such as your driving licence or passport. This picture must be in full colour and show all of the details of the document clearly. As mentioned previously, this document does not need to be certified, as it will be verified by the system. You will then be asked to upload a picture of yourself holding a unique verification code, which will be matched to the document using facial recognition software.

Once the requests have been completed, we will then be in touch regarding the next steps of the on-boarding process. To see how your data is processed, please see Amiqus’ privacy policy here
