Onfido (Entrust)

ListedIdentity

Onfido, now Entrust Identity Verification: document and biometric checks, database checks in 68 countries, watchlist screening and fraud signals.

What it does

Account schemes

    Custody

    Who holds the money while a payment through Onfido (Entrust) is in flight. Unirail records custody on every leg, and your routing policy decides which kinds are allowed.

    • noneNo custody

      Nobody holds the money. The payer’s bank pays the payee’s bank directly; the provider only instructs it.

    Who is regulated

    Not a payment provider; it processes identity data for the platform. Unirail hasn't checked its regulatory status.

    With your own contract, you stay the provider’s customer. Unirail acts as your technical service provider and calls Onfido (Entrust) with your credentials.

    Onboarding

    Contract with the provider

    Sandbox access appears to go through sales (inferred).

    Credentials

    Onfido (Entrust) has no adapter yet, so there is no folder layout to create. It will appear here when the provider is integrated.
