## **A new layer of merchant risk intelligence for Signicat customers**

Businesses can pass identity verification while still operating in prohibited categories, misrepresenting their activity, or acting as fronts for higher-risk operations.

To detect this, onboarding teams often rely on **manual web research**: analysts reviewing merchant websites, social profiles, and digital footprints to determine what the business actually does.

Through this new integration with TrueBiz, [Signicat](https://www.signicat.com/) customers can now automate that step directly within their onboarding workflow.

After verifying a business’s identity through Signicat, teams can trigger a TrueBiz assessment to analyze the company’s **digital footprint and behavioral signals across the open web**, producing a decision-ready risk assessment in under 30 seconds.

## **Closing the gap between identity and behavior**

KYB answers an important question:

**Does this business legally exist?**

But risk teams must also answer another:

**Does the business actually operate the way it claims?**

TrueBiz closes that gap by analyzing more than **250 digital footprint signals** across the open web to determine:

- If the business is operational online

- What products or services it offers

- If its activity aligns with a financial institution’s risk policies

The system returns a configurable **pass / fail recommendation**, along with structured risk indicators and transparent reasoning, all in under 30 seconds.

## **Built directly into Signicat onboarding workflows**

Signicat customers can now add behavioral merchant analysis to their existing onboarding process without introducing new tools or manual research steps.

By combining **Signicat’s identity infrastructure** with **TrueBiz’s behavioral intelligence**, financial institutions and payment providers can:

- Reduce manual merchant reviews

- Detect prohibited or misrepresented businesses earlier

- Speed up onboarding times while strengthening risk controls

“Signicat has built the identity infrastructure that financial institutions worldwide depend on,” said **Danny Hakimian**, **CEO and Founder** of **TrueBiz**.  “TrueBiz adds the layer beneath it: what does this business actually do online, and does that match what it claimed on the application?”
