Ongoing monitoring is a critical component of our Pro plan. It ensures that your customer due diligence remains up-to-date and helps you identify potential risks that may arise after the initial onboarding process. This feature is automatically included for all sessions where an AML check has been performed, requiring no additional integration steps.

How It Works

Our ongoing monitoring system continuously checks your verified users against various watchlists, sanctions lists, and adverse media sources. Here’s a detailed overview of the process:
  1. Daily Automated Checks:
    • Our system runs daily automated checks for all sessions that have previously been approved
    • Each check rescreens the user against our comprehensive database of watchlists and sanctions lists
    • The system compares any new findings against your configured AML thresholds
  2. Threshold-Based Updates:
    • If new hits are found that exceed your configured review threshold, the session status changes to “In Review”
    • If new hits exceed your decline threshold, the session status automatically changes to “Declined”
    • These thresholds are the same ones you’ve configured in your Workflows
  3. Real-time Notifications:
    • When a status change occurs, your application receives a webhook notification
    • The webhook payload includes the updated status and detailed information about the new AML hits
    • These notifications follow the same format as our standard webhook system
  4. Business Console Updates:
    • All changes are immediately reflected in your Business Console
    • Your compliance team can inspect new AML hits, review detailed findings, and take appropriate actions
    • The console maintains a complete audit trail of all monitoring activities and status changes

Enabling monitoring for users and businesses

You can turn ongoing monitoring on or off for whole users and businesses directly from the console — including users that never went through an AML check, such as imported users.
  1. Open Users (or Businesses) in your Business Console, select the profiles you want to monitor, and click AML Ongoing monitoring.
  2. The dialog shows a cost estimate before anything runs: how many profiles are selected, how many need a new AML screening, the one-time screening cost, and the yearly monitoring cost.
  3. Click Enable monitoring. Small selections complete immediately; larger ones run in the background while the dialog shows live progress.
  4. When the run finishes, the dialog breaks down the result per profile: enabled, screened and enabled, already enabled, or skipped with the reason (for example, a profile without the full name, date of birth, and country needed to screen).
A few details worth knowing:
  • Profiles without an AML screening are screened first. Didit creates a new AML verification for them (visible in the profile’s Verifications tab), billed as a regular AML screening. Monitoring is then enabled on that screening.
  • One monitored screening per profile. Enabling keeps exactly one monitored AML screening per user or business, so a person who verified multiple times is only monitored — and billed — once. Disabling turns monitoring off across all of the profile’s screenings.
  • The lists show monitoring at a glance. Both the Users and Businesses lists include an Ongoing monitoring column; hover over it to see the next yearly billing date.
  • Select all works with your filters. With every row selected, the action applies to your current filtered view, not just the loaded page.
The same operations are available via API: PATCH .../vendor-users/toggle-ongoing-monitoring/ and its businesses counterparts support an estimate_only dry-run and return a job you can poll — see the API reference for details.
