Shufti Pro

Identity verification and AML screening at the low cost end of the market

As of 1 September 2026, Shufti Pro's pricing is not published; the vendor quotes on request. A verification provider that competes mainly on price and breadth of country coverage, with pay as you go and monthly commitment options. Softwr lists it under Cybersecurity. Shufti Pro is made by Shufti Pro Limited, available on Web, iOS, Android.

Overview

What Shufti Pro does

Shufti Pro, which also trades simply as Shufti, provides document verification, facial biometrics, address verification, business verification and AML screening through a single API. Its country coverage is unusually wide, including many markets larger vendors treat as edge cases, and it markets both a pay as you go model and monthly commitment plans. The commercially distinguishing point is cost position. Shufti is consistently priced below Jumio and the US incumbents, which makes it the default choice for high volume, lower margin verification: gambling in emerging markets, crypto exchanges, gig platforms. It also states that resubmission sessions are not charged, meaning only successful verification attempts are billed, which materially changes total cost against vendors that bill every attempt. That single billing detail is worth confirming in writing, because it can swing effective cost by twenty per cent or more on a funnel with high retry rates. Buyers are crypto, gambling, gig economy and emerging market fintech operators. The trade-off is that the vendor does not carry the enterprise assurance profile that a tier one bank procurement team demands, and the accuracy gap against premium vendors shows up as manual review volume. Cheap per check is not cheap if your reviewers absorb the difference.

What people use it for

  • A crypto exchange onboarding users in markets where premium vendors have poor document coverage
  • A gambling operator needing age assurance at high volume where per-check cost dominates the unit economics
  • A gig economy platform verifying couriers whose documents are photographed on low end phones
  • A startup that needs verification without signing an annual volume commitment before it knows its volume

The honest half

Where it falls short

Concrete and checkable, so you can decide whether any of them matter to you. This is the half of a review a vendor will not write about Shufti Pro.

  • Rates are not published despite the pay as you go framing, so the cost advantage over premium vendors has to be established through a quote rather than a price list.
  • Accuracy on difficult document types trails the premium vendors, and the saving per check is often consumed by the manual review headcount handling the additional referrals.
  • The enterprise assurance profile is thinner than that of larger competitors, so regulated bank procurement teams frequently rule it out at the vendor risk stage rather than on capability.
  • Support responsiveness scales with contract size, and pay as you go customers have limited recourse when a document type suddenly starts failing in one market.
  • Country coverage is broad but uneven in depth, meaning the same product can perform very differently across two markets you are launching in simultaneously.

Answered, with sources

Questions people ask

Each answer names the page it came from, so you can check it rather than take our word for it.

Are failed attempts charged?

Shufti states that resubmission sessions are not charged and that billing follows successful verification attempts. Get that written into the contract, because it materially changes total cost.

Is there a published price?

No. Plan structures are published but rates are quoted. Third party estimates put effective cost well below premium vendors.

Can we start without a commitment?

Yes. A pay as you go option exists, which is unusual in this category and useful for early stage volume.
