Manage customer compliance

This topic describes how to manage customer compliance.

Add customer data to a blocklist

Use blocklists to prevent fraud and criminal activity. A blocklist is a list of customer attribute values that are blocked from buying from you. For example, if a customer attempts to buy from you with a credit card or fingerprint that is in a blocklist, the transaction is blocked and is not processed. For more information, see Blocklists.

  1. Log in to Rebilly.
  2. In the left navigation bar, press Data tables, then press Customers.
  3. In the Name column, press a customer's name.
  4. In the right of the page, press , then press Block customer.
  5. Select a blocklist type and specify blocklist criteria.
  6. Press Save.

Request KYC documents

Use this process to request KYC documents from your customer. This process generates a link that is shared with the customer. When the customer opens the link, they are then guided through the document submission process. For more information, see KYC.
