Definition
Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money-Laundering (AML) checks confirm who a party is and screen them against sanctions and risk lists. The identity-checks endpoint runs one through an external provider, so the definitive result may be asynchronous.
In plain terms
The identity and anti-fraud checks required before onboarding a customer.
Why it matters here
Because it calls an external provider, the endpoint is sub-limited and the result can arrive by webhook. See the identity-checks reference.
