At EasyKonto, we’ve spoken to countless SMBs who felt held back by outdated onboarding processes. That’s why we built our solution differently—streamlined, transparent, and tailored to the real-world needs of business owners and entrepreneurs.
Let’s explore the common pitfalls in KYC—and more importantly, how EasyKonto helps you avoid them.
Why KYC Fails: Common Challenges for SMBs
1. Complex and Lengthy Procedures
Traditional KYC workflows often involve layers of manual checks, inconsistent document requests, and long waiting periods. For SMBs that need to move fast—especially when dealing with suppliers or customers overseas—these delays can damage relationships and kill momentum.
2. Inconsistent Regional Rules
Operating across multiple jurisdictions means juggling different regulatory standards. What’s acceptable in the UK might not pass in the UAE or Denmark. These shifting requirements can leave SMBs confused, with missing or mismatched documents that stall the entire process.
3. Slow or Manual Verification
Time is money. When verification involves endless back-and-forth emails or internal reviews, businesses are left waiting—unable to send or receive funds when it matters most.
4. Costly Compliance
Hiring or outsourcing compliance staff isn’t always an option for small teams. High compliance costs disproportionately impact SMBs, adding financial pressure before business has even begun.
5. Lack of Transparency
Most traditional providers offer little visibility into the onboarding process. You upload documents, then wait... with no clue what's next or how long it will take.
6. Account Closure Risk
One small mistake—wrong format, missed update, a document that’s one month too old—can result in your account being rejected or even closed. Many providers offer no second chances.
