Onfido is an online identity verification and KYC platform for businesses, often compared with solutions such as Jumio and Veriff. Its core capabilities include document verification, face and liveness checks, fraud risk signals, and API/SDK integration.

It is primarily a cloud service; publicly available information does not indicate that it can be self-hosted. Deployment focuses on integrating its API/SDK and preparing compliance, privacy, and callback services. Users in China should evaluate support and compatibility for WeChat ecosystem embedding, Chinese identity documents and real-name verification flows, and domestic cloud, SMS, and customer support providers.
