Trust is the
new infrastructure.
Every digital interaction rests on a single question: is this person real, and are they who they claim to be? Veem answers it — instantly, accurately, and responsibly — so African businesses can build with certainty.
Our mission
To give every African a verified identity they own and control, and every business a single, consent-gated source of truth — so identity is proven once and trusted everywhere.
Our vision
To become the trusted identity backbone of the African digital economy — a layer where every individual owns their verified self, and every business can access the truth they need, with consent.
What we do
Veem unifies identity verification into one API. NIN and BVN lookups, liveness detection, face match, PEP & sanctions screening, and CAC business lookups — composed into a single, auditable decision. We sit between authoritative records and the businesses that need them, turning fragmented, manual checks into a sub-second call.
What we believe
Trust is earned in milliseconds
Every verification is a promise. We obsess over accuracy, speed, and uptime because the moment a check fails, trust breaks.
Privacy by design
We handle the most sensitive data there is. Data minimisation, encryption, and consent aren't features — they're the foundation.
Built for Africa, first
We start with the realities of Nigerian identity infrastructure and regulation, and build outward across the continent.
Developer obsession
One clean API, honest docs, and pricing you can reason about. If it isn't easy to integrate, it isn't done.
Built for the most sensitive data there is.
Identity is regulated for good reason. We treat compliance and data protection as core product — not paperwork — so you can onboard fast without cutting corners.
NDPA & NDPR aligned
Our platform is built around the Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023 and the NDPR, and we operate in line with guidance from the Nigeria Data Protection Commission (NDPC).
CBN KYC/AML ready
Verification flows are designed to help fintechs, MFBs and insurers meet CBN Know-Your-Customer and anti-money-laundering obligations.
Authoritative sources
We verify against source-of-truth records — NIN (NIMC), BVN (NIBSS) and business registration (CAC) — through licensed channels.
Data protection by design
Encryption in transit and at rest, least-privilege access, tenant isolation and full audit trails on every verification.
Merchant accountability
Every merchant is onboarded with a Data Processing Agreement and Master Services Agreement, with scopes provisioned per sector and use case.
Consent & data minimisation
We only process what a verification needs, capture consent where required, and give data subjects control over their information.
