Compliance challenges

What keeps your compliance team up at night.

Mass Subscriber Onboarding

Screening subscribers at scale across prepaid SIM activation and dealer-assisted onboarding. National SIM-registration mandates also require documentary identity verification, which on8's Passporter is being built for.

SIM-Box & Interconnect Fraud

Detecting bypass fraud, grey-route traffic and anomalous calling patterns that signal money laundering or sanctions evasion.

Mobile Money & Airtime Flows

Monitoring wallet top-ups, peer transfers and airtime resale for structuring and suspicious velocity, in line with AML obligations for payment-enabled telcos.

Vendor & Reseller Risk

Screening equipment suppliers, MVNO partners and distribution dealers against denied-party and export-control lists.
