Its partners, including fiat on and off ramps, card issuers and payment providers, have traditionally conducted separate know your customer (KYC) checks.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/4rEz5v8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/1791360492_654_How-Fintechs-Can-Thrive-in-the-Age-of-AI-spbb-mobile-1.gif\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" role=\"presentation\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-nosnippet=\"\" data-pin-nopin=\"true\" width=\"600\" height=\"500\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Users therefore had to repeat the verification process for each new provider.<\/p>\n<p>Those with a Sumsub ID can now reuse it, while others complete a new check with an identity document and selfie.<\/p>\n<p>They must explicitly consent to link their verified identity to their MiniPay account and approve sharing it with each regulated partner when first accessing its service.<\/p>\n<p>The verified identity passes directly from Sumsub ID to the provider, so MiniPay does not collect, store or handle identity documents or biometric data.<\/p>\n<p>Partners can complete verification without additional user screens while applying their own compliance policies. Higher-risk transactions require additional checks.<\/p>\n<p>According to Sumsub, MiniPay partners adopting the approach have seen verification conversion rates rise from approximately 70 percent to 95 percent, while KYC completion times have fallen by up to 50 percent.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-112859\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Andrew-Novoselsky-150x150.png\" alt=\"Andrew Novoselsky\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\"  \/>Andrew Novoselsky<\/p>\n<p>Andrew Novoselsky, Chief Product Officer at Sumsub, said,<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRepeated KYC checks across the same ecosystem are inconvenient for everyone, and one in three applicants we see have already verified with us before.<\/p>\n<p>Reusable KYC Gateway puts that reuse to work for MiniPay\u2019s users, giving them a single verified identity that works throughout its entire partner network, with full control over what they share and with whom.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Murray Spark, Senior Director of Business Development at Opera, said,<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSelf-custody has always been central to MiniPay. Users hold their own funds, and now they also control their own verified identity. They decide what to share and with whom, and that matters more and more as our partner network expands across new markets.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The gateway is now available to non-regulated businesses connecting users to regulated partners, including non-custodial wallets and decentralised trading platforms.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Featured image: Edited by Fintech News Singapore, based on image by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.magnific.com\/premium-psd\/person-typing-laptop-device-keyboard_43453067.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Magnific<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Free Newsletter Get the hottest Fintech Singapore News once a month in your Inbox Opera\u2019s MiniPay users can&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":623086,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[306473,342,111,139,69,306474,145],"class_list":["post-623085","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-mobile","tag-minipay","tag-mobile","tag-new-zealand","tag-newzealand","tag-nz","tag-sumsub","tag-technology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/623085","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=623085"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/623085\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/623086"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=623085"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=623085"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=623085"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
