Onboarding Friction for Global Payments as a Startup

    Definitely seeing that variability too. Some PSPs seem to be able to leverage existing KYB profiles for their other clients, which speeds things up significantly. Others act like you're the first fintech they've ever seen.

    We've definitely experienced that variability, particularly with KYB for new fintechs. It often boils down to how well-prepared you are with a comprehensive legal entity structure and beneficial ownership documentation from day one.

    It's definitely something we've noticed too. Is the variability mostly around the types of documents, or more about the back-and-forth once they have the initial set?
