iDenfy, an AI-enabled identity verification, and fraud prevention tech startup, announced its partnership with Fincapital Partners, an all-in-one banking and asset management platform that offers comprehensive financial services. The company will leverage iDenfy’s advanced KYC and AML solutions to deliver a seamless customer onboarding process.

Fincapital Partners aimed to maintain a user-friendly interface and uninterrupted client experience when searching for a service provider that could support its single platform with multiple tools. The fintech offers a comprehensive suite of services, including trading investment, crypto exchange, and banking services such as IBAN and card issuance.

As an online service, the fintech needed to instill customer confidence without the benefit of face-to-face interaction. This drove Fincapital Partners to seek automated compliance solutions to enhance its operations. Fincapital Partners reports that iDenfy’s integration of identity verification and anti-money laundering (AML) screening solutions integration has streamlined the onboarding process, which was a crucial factor when selecting a KYC provider.

To enhance fraud prevention and provide secure and end-to-end identity verification and AML service, Fincapital Partners partnered with iDenfy. As a result, iDenfy is now responsible for ensuring that all customers of the financial service platform are protected and their sensitive data is stored in a compliant manner. Fincapital Partners has stated that iDenfy is now responsible for handling KYC inquiries and storing personal information, reducing the workload for its team.

According to Fincapital Partners, the banking and wealth management platform now offers a more seamless customer onboarding experience for its customers and partners, resulting in better regulatory risk protection. iDenfy’s biometric identity verification has allowed Fincapital Partners to streamline their process into four simple steps while simultaneously detecting fraudulent imagery such as deepfake videos and 3D masks.

To ensure its customers are verified with the appropriate level of trust, Fincapital Partners has integrated iDenfy’s biometric ID verification and AML Screening solution, enabling the company to efficiently verify and screen its customers for risk against sanctions, watchlists, and PEPs. This implementation instills confidence in the Fincapital Partners’ team, allowing them to provide a more secure experience for their clients and minimize regulatory risk to their business.

It’s worth mentioning that Fincapital Partners discovered that many KYC providers charged for every attempted identity verification, including unsuccessful ones, resulting in actual invoices that were 50% to 100% higher than advertised. The company tried out several IDV providers to save costs and eventually partnered with iDenfy. According to Fincapital Partners, iDenfy’s unique payment model only charges for successful KYC verifications, which was a significant factor in their decision to work with them.

“Our primary focus was eliminating manual processes and increasing automation to streamline our compliance workflow. Our partnership with iDenfy helps us achieve a positive customer experience and increase identity verification speed so our clients can be unboarded faster.” — commented Adrien Brousse, the CEO of Fincapital Partners.

“A company’s success in building an effective compliance program depends on having the appropriate KYC and AML controls in place. We appreciate every new partnership we make and are enthusiastic about helping Fincapital Partners improve their fraud prevention system.” — said Domantas Ciulde, the CEO of iDenfy.

In a historic move for Ukrainian sports, the Basketball Federation of Ukraine (FBU) and title sponsor GGBET UA recently hosted Media Slam in Kyiv. This inaugural open media event served as a high-level forum to analyze the regular season results of the GGBET SuperLeague and the recent performances of Ukraine’s men’s and women’s national teams.

Since becoming the league’s title sponsor in January 2026, GGBET UA has prioritized transparency and engagement. The event highlighted a significant milestone: the return of fans to stadiums despite the ongoing challenges of martial law, signaling a resilient recovery for the domestic game.

Highlights and Recognition

The “Media Slam” wasn’t just about statistics; it was a celebration of the sport’s current momentum:

MVP Honors: The regular season’s top five players were officially recognized for their outstanding contributions.
Kyiv-Basket Victory: The Ukrainian Cup winners received a formal check in honor of their championship win.
Market Discussion: Stakeholders engaged in a candid dialogue regarding the increasing competitiveness of the league.

Sergii Mishchenko, CEO of GGBET UA, commented:

“We didn’t get involved in Ukrainian basketball just to have our logo on a banner. This is a systematic approach. We see the increasing interest in basketball and want to be a part of that growth. The tougher the competition, the stronger Ukrainian basketball becomes.”

A Strategic Expansion

Basketball marks a major pillar in GGBET UA’s diversifying sports portfolio. Following high-profile partnerships with FC Dynamo Kyiv, FC Polissya Zhytomyr, and the Usyk vs. Dubois 2 rematch, the brand is now cementing its status as a cornerstone of the Ukrainian basketball ecosystem.
