MEXC partners with Sumsub to deploy biometric liveness checks and document analysis as AI-powered fraud attacks increased 180% in 2025.
Verification solutions Sumsub has partnered with cryptocurrency exchange MEXC to integrate AI-powered identity verification tools. The collaboration is aimed at addressing the rise of deepfake technology and remote onboarding fraud within the cryptocurrency industry.
The integration will provide MEXC with a verification suite that includes biometric liveness checks, document analysis, and database validation; these tools are designed to move beyond one-off onboarding checks towards continuous identity assurance across the user lifecycle.
The updated infrastructure includes intelligent, risk-based workflows that adapt to specific user behaviour and conduct source-of-funds checks, and are intended to identify forged credentials and impersonators in real time as the platform’s user base scales.
Vugar Usi, Chief Operating Officer of MEXC, said: “Our collaboration with Sumsub reflects MEXC’s commitment to enhancing identity assurance across the user lifecycle, ensuring that verification processes remain both secure and accessible. We see identity verification not as a single checkpoint, but as an ongoing process.”
Ilya Brovin, Chief Growth Officer at Sumsub, said: “By combining automation with robust controls and real-time risk signals, platforms like MEXC can stay ahead of emerging threats while maintaining the seamless experience users expect.”
By automating the verification process, MEXC aims to reduce manual reviews while maintaining alignment with global AML and KYC standards.
