Collect KYC documents via WhatsApp in minutes — not days
WhatsPortal guides customers through KYC submission on WhatsApp — Aadhaar, PAN, income proof, bank statements — collected, logged, and ready for your team without a single form or branch visit.
KYC completion rates on web forms are poor. The process feels complex. Customers abandon.
01
A customer downloads your lending app and reaches the KYC step. They're asked to upload Aadhaar, PAN, selfie, and bank statement. Four uploads, two logins, one confusing UI. 40–60% drop off before completing. Those are customers you already acquired.
02
Chasing incomplete KYC is a manual, labour-intensive process. Your ops team calls customers, emails them links, and follows up multiple times — for documents that a WhatsApp bot could have collected in 5 minutes.
03
Customers in tier-2 and tier-3 markets — a key growth segment for Indian fintech — are more comfortable sharing documents on WhatsApp than through a web upload portal they don't trust.
The solution
WhatsPortal runs a step-by-step KYC collection flow on WhatsApp — familiar, guided, and fast.
Guided document collection
The bot asks for each document one at a time — 'Please share a clear photo of your Aadhaar card front.' Customers photograph and send. No portal navigation, no multi-upload forms.

Automated follow-up for incomplete submissions
Customers who stop midway receive automated follow-up nudges — 'You're halfway through. Just 2 documents remaining.' Most complete when reminded.

Secure document storage
Documents shared on WhatsApp are end-to-end encrypted. WhatsPortal logs each document against the customer's contact record — accessible to your KYC team from the shared inbox.

FAQ
Common questions about fintech kyc document collection
Is sharing financial documents on WhatsApp secure?
WhatsApp Business API messages are end-to-end encrypted. The security is comparable to standard WhatsApp. For additional assurance, you can use WhatsApp Flows (available on Premium) for structured, in-chat document collection with enhanced privacy controls.
Which documents can be collected via WhatsApp?
Any document that can be photographed or saved as a PDF — Aadhaar, PAN, passport, driving licence, bank statements, salary slips, ITR documents — can be shared on WhatsApp.
Can the bot validate documents before accepting them?
Basic validation — checking that a photo was sent rather than a text message — can be built into the flow. For deeper document verification (OCR, OCRV check), connect your verification API via WhatsPortal's Custom HTTP Request action.
