Detected

Detected is an intelligent end-to-end merchant onboarding platform (KYB and KYC) designed specifically for payment providers and marketplaces. The company is based in London, United Kingdom, with a presence in the United States, and was founded in 2020.

Products The set includes a White-Label KYB Onboarding Flow, Global Registry Search across 200+ jurisdictions, UBO and Director KYC, and Merchant Risk Monitoring. A PSP can embed the onboarding flow under its own brand and verify company structure and beneficial owners in one process.

Clients and coverage Target customers are PSPs, PayFacs, acquirers and B2B marketplaces. Coverage is stated as global, including the United Kingdom, the EU, the United States and APAC.

Background and pricing The company states that it is backed by Thomson Reuters Ventures and cuts the time to onboard a new merchant from weeks to minutes. It is sold as enterprise SaaS; price details are agreed with the vendor.

Who it suits Payment businesses whose merchant onboarding is slow because company data is collected manually across registries, and which also need ongoing monitoring of merchants after approval.
