  2. Click "Add Customer" in the top-right corner of the Customers page

Click Add Customer

  1. Enter a unique ID number for the customer (e.g. national ID, passport number, or any internal reference)
tip

If you don't have the customer's ID number on hand, you can enter any unique value as a placeholder and update it later.

  1. Click "Add Customer" to save the profile

Confirm by clicking Add Customer

  1. Click "Back" to return to the customer list

Step 2 — Start the Verification Process​

Once the profile is open, you can initiate the KYC verification using one of three methods:

Option A — QR Code (Recommended for in-person)​

  1. Click "Generate QR" to create a one-time verification QR code

Click Generate QR

  1. Ask the customer to scan the QR code using their mobile device to begin the verification flow

Customer scans the QR code

Option B — Shareable Link (Recommended for remote)​

  1. Click "Copy Link" on the same screen
  2. Send the link to the customer via email, SMS, or any messaging channel
  3. The customer opens the link on their device and completes verification

Option C — Manual Upload (Operator-assisted)​

If you have the customer's documents available, you can upload them directly from Studio on the customer's behalf.

  1. Click "Upload Document" from the customer's profile page

Click Upload Document

  1. Select the document type and upload the required files
note

Manual uploads are useful for walk-in customers or cases where the customer cannot complete verification independently.
