Rwanda has one of Africa's most digitised public services and a high share of mobile payments. IdentifyOrg lets Kigali teams verify phone numbers by SMS and verify an ID document with a selfie, priced in Rwandan francs.
The national ID is issued by NIDA Rwanda. A live ID lookup is on our roadmap. Document OCR, liveness and face match are available today.
Kinyarwanda, English and French are all in everyday use, so many teams send codes in more than one language through their own message template. Mobile numbers are written 078 123 4567 locally and +250781234567 internationally. The franc has no cents; prices are shown in whole francs.
BVN verification, NIN verification, Driver's licence (FRSC), Bank account name check, BVN to account match, CAC business registry check, Credit bureau score, Bills (airtime, data, electricity, TV), Business payment gateway (collections) depend on Nigerian records and are available for Nigeria only.
