Sumsub, a global tech company providing customizable KYC, KYB, KYT, and AML solutions, today announced the launch of Workflow Builder, a feature enabling businesses to create user verification workflows tailored to specific triggers and risk scenarios. This new offering will allow companies to automate onboarding decision-making with flexible rules and actions, making user journey seamless while keeping pass rates high. At the same time, the Workflow Builder promises to secure businesses from fraud while ensuring full compliance with regulations.

Sumsub’s Workflow Builder is designed for global online businesses in the fintech, crypto, trading, marketplace, gaming and shared mobility industries. The feature can be set up in the dashboard in no time, code-free.

With the Sumsub dashboard, automating user verification is simple. All that’s required from the client is to set up the verification logic—which includes picking triggers such as age, gender, country, previous KYC data, etc.—and choose the appropriate rules and actions. From there, onboarding-related decision-making is automated, with clients retaining full control over which cases to review manually.

With Workflow Builder, there are basically no limits for customization. The solution lets businesses create flexible onboarding workflows with any level of sophistication, code-free. In addition, workflows can be adapted to different countries and user groups based on Sumsub’s advanced risk scoring system. For instance, applicants from high-risk locations can be automatically double-checked, while liveness checks can be triggered following suspicious user actions. Workflow Builder allows companies to configure multi-directional user journeys with various verification step combinations depending on hundreds of factors they choose to take into account at any point in customer onboarding.

Regarding KYC/AML-related legal requirements for online businesses, Sumsub’s experienced team of 30+ compliance in-house experts is available to create compliant and user-friendly verification flows for any market or jurisdiction.

“With the Workflow Builder, Sumsub’s clients are now able to orchestrate the entire customer lifecycle and automate the decision-making process during onboarding, which allows them to focus on their core business goals. At the same time, this new feature simplifies the onboarding flow for end users, making their experience frictionless. Apart from saving time and money, this solution is designed to help businesses maximize user pass rates, forward global expansion and keep their clients happy,” said Vyacheslav Zholudev, Co-founder and CTO of Sumsub.

Global Video Game Commerce Company To Support Industry Growth Through Panels, Workshops, And Community Engagement Across Atlantic Canada

Xsolla, a leading global video game commerce company, today announced its participation in two major gaming industry events taking place across Atlantic Canada from June 3-5, 2026, reinforcing the company’s commitment to supporting regional game development ecosystems and fostering industry collaboration.

Xsolla will participate in both Game Invest East and XP Game Connect Atlantic, joining developers, publishers, investors, and industry leaders for discussions centered on the future of game development, investment, and innovation in the local area.

At Game Invest East, held in partnership with Scaffold, Xsolla will contribute to conversations around funding, growth opportunities, and the evolving business landscape for game studios.

Featured on the panel titled “If You Can Make It Here,” Xsolla’s Manny Hachey, Senior Director of Developer Success, joins Kate Edwards, CEO and Principal Consultant of Geogrify, and Amir Satvat, Business Development Director at Tencent Games, founder of Always Supporting the Games Community (ASGC), and a 2026 GamesBeat Visionary Award honoree, to explore how new regions and new entrants can survive and thrive in disruptive times.

Hachey, a native of Atlantic Canada, was personally requested by Scaffold to represent Xsolla at the event — a homecoming that adds a personal dimension to the panel’s central thesis. Having built her career and made her mark in Germany’s games industry, she returns with a firsthand perspective on what it takes to leave, build something meaningful abroad, and come back with proof of concept.

Xsolla will continue its Atlantic Canada engagement at XP Game Connect Atlantic in Halifax on June 5. John Nguyen, Regional Vice President, Canada at Xsolla, and Ted DiNola, Developer Evangelist at Xsolla, will host a workshop titled ‘Full Picture to Fast Lane: Xsolla Ecosystem Overview & Live SDK 3 Integration’, providing practical insights and actionable strategies for developers navigating today’s rapidly evolving gaming market.

Nguyen will also host a panel titled, ‘What Does the Future of Game Development Look Like in Atlantic Canada?’ where he will be joined by industry experts, including Ryan Filsinger from Iron Fox; Shawn Woods, CEO at Alpha Dog and VP of Interactive Society of Nova Scotia; George Greer, Founder of Besszong; and Jade Yhap, President of Interactive NB. The panel will explore the region’s growing role in the global games industry and the opportunities ahead for studios, talent, and ecosystem partners.
