In short

How do I get high risk Onfido verifications to compliance quickly?

WebRun checks Onfido every hour for verifications flagged high risk or failed, posts each one to the compliance team's Slack channel with the reason, and escalates time sensitive cases to Telegram. It only reads and relays flags, so the review, approval, and any applicant contact stay with compliance.

  • High risk verifications reach compliance within the hour
  • Urgent cases get a separate Telegram escalation
  • Review, approval, and applicant contact always stay with a human

Questions, answered

Will WebRun approve or reject a flagged verification?

No. WebRun only reads and hands off the flag with its reason. Approving, rejecting, or requesting new documents is always a compliance analyst's decision.

Does WebRun ever see the applicant's ID document or face scan?

No. It only reads the outcome and reason code Onfido returns, never the underlying document image or biometric data.

Will it contact the applicant to ask for more information?

No. WebRun never contacts an applicant. Any follow up request goes out from your compliance team, not from WebRun.
