iDenfy, a Lithuanian-based RegTech and identity verification company, announced a new partnership with Proxyrack, a leading provider of proxy solutions based in Hong Kong designed to enhance online proxy data-collection capabilities. Through this collaboration, both businesses will improve Know Your Customer (KYC) processes, ensuring more accurate and efficient user registration and higher approval rates for Proxyrack’s network.
Proxyrack operates in the tech industry, providing a vast network of residential and data center proxies to businesses and individuals. These services are essential for web scraping, market research, ad verification, and bypassing geo-restrictions. What sets Proxyrack apart is its commitment to fostering innovation and creativity, as well as striving for accuracy by providing diverse IP addresses and scalable performance to meet diverse user needs as the company’s values align with the clients’ requirements and eagerness to bring any ideas to life.
Proxyrack’s internal research showed that hiring an in-house Know Your Customer (KYC) specialist team would require more financial resources and highly skilled compliance professionals. For this reason, the proxy service provider decided to partner with a highly efficient and established third-party KYC vendor. After a thorough evaluation of several identity verification providers, Proxyrack selected iDenfy for its exceptional flexibility and competitive pricing.
According to the Proxyrack team, iDenfy’s solution stood out as it offered customizable screening options that ensured users were not miscategorized, which was the main issue that Proxyrack encountered while working with the previous KYC providers. Currently, Proxyrack uses iDenfy’s biometric identity verification solution which according to the company has resolved significant issues and increased work efficiency. As the main thing of users’ miscategorization iDenfy’s solution worked seamlessly from the start, providing peace of mind that user data is secure and verifications are highly accurate.
According to Proxyrack, iDenfy was chosen because of the flexibility the system offers, which their previous providers could not offer. iDenfy’s options for screening candidates and ensuring accurate user categorization were exactly what they needed. Additionally, the competitive pricing was a pleasant surprise, and it ended up being more cost-effective than expected.
Another standout feature of iDenfy is their pricing model, which charges only for successful verifications, unlike other competitors that charge for all attempts. This approach significantly reduces costs and ensures that clients only pay for results. iDenfy’s competitive pricing policy makes their services more cost-effective without sacrificing users’ reliability or other compliance check benefits compared to other providers in the industry.
In addition, iDenfy’s identity verification solution is able to automatically recognize, verify and extract information from 3000+ identity documents across 200 countries and territories including various passports, ID cards, licenses and permits to accurately identify documents on a global scale and to check the authenticity of users.
As for future plans, Proxyrack’s top priority as a company is to ensure that their customers are of the highest caliber, providing data-collecting solutions at scale for users who trust them with their public web scraping needs. The partnership with iDenfy aligns perfectly with this goal, enhancing Proxyrack’s ability to deliver secure and reliable services. In the future, based on the positive experience, Proxyrack is also thinking of expanding and using additional iDenfy’s fraud prevention solutions.
“A growing proxy user network means that a fully automated approach to KYC compliance is required. We’re glad to be able to help Proxyrack with their goal to scale faster and onboard more new users in less time, which is a vital factor in today’s highly competitive market,” commented Domantas Ciulde, the CEO of iDenfy.

“This is another important step in our mission to serve regulated markets worldwide,” said Vladimir Negine, founder and CEO at St8. “We’ve been really impressed by the robust licensing process of the Isle of Man Gambling Supervision Commission, which allows us to deliver innovative technology in a manner that protects both our partners and the end user.

St8 was guided through the licensing process by specialist consultancy Amber Gaming.
