KYB process and identity wallet

Understand everything about KYB and our identity wallet solution!

What is KYB (Know Your Business)?

KYB, or "Know Your Business", is a crucial process for verifying and validating information about a company, similar to KYC (Know Your Customer), but focused specifically on businesses. The KYB process represents the need for companies to comply with regulatory requirements and conduct in-depth checks on the companies with which they interact or do business. Integrating KYB practices into business processes is essential to establish credibility, trust and ensure regulatory compliance.

What's the difference between KYC, KYB and KYS?

The distinction between KYC, KYB and KYS is crucial in the world of business and compliance. KYC, or 'Know Your Customer', focuses on the identification and verification of individual customers, ensuring the legitimacy of their identities. On the other hand, KYB, or 'Know Your Business', focuses on validating information related to the companies and business entities with which you interact. This involves checking details such as company structure, shareholders, management and other relevant data. Finally, KYS, or 'Know Your Supplier', focuses on knowing and validating the suppliers your company deals with. This practice ensures the reliability, legitimacy and compliance of business partners. Understanding these differences is essential to maintaining regulatory compliance and building strong, transparent business relationships. By effectively integrating these practices into your operational processes, you build trust and credibility, and reduce the potential risks associated with business transactions.

Are the certificates shown here already available? Is the list exhaustive?

We invite you to contact us to learn more about the attestations already available in the Archipels wallet ecosystem. We regularly add trusted issuers (those who issue the attestations). The list is by no means exhaustive, but not all the attestations listed are available yet. But for example, Archipels has already forged a strong partnership with Infogreffe, enabling it to offer a Credential Kbis certificate.

Who can manage a corporate Wallet?

To be able to create a company wallet, only a legal representative can do so today, after his or her identity has been verified. The wallet holder can issue rights within his or her company to enable the company wallet to be set up (for example, to accept requests for the presentation of documents, or to request the presentation of documents to certain suppliers).
