Nyota ID architecture enforces strict secret key isolation. Front-end applications interact exclusively with lightweight verification session tokens, ensuring your secret API key (ny_live_...) never leaks into client-side JavaScript or compiled mobile binaries.
Our atomic settlement architecture ensures your server receives dependable callbacks with retry safety. Duplicate delivery attempts safely evaluate to the current state, protecting your application from race conditions.
Designed in strict alignment with regional data protection standards and identity verification best practices. All verification sessions utilize encrypted HTTPS transit and hardened data storage layers.
Nyota ID operates on a pay-as-you-go model through your Nyota Pay Wallet on accounts.nyotaimara.com. Individual KYC checks cost KES 150, and Corporate KYB checks cost KES 500. Before calling the session API, ensure your wallet balance has sufficient credits.
Individual KYC supports Kenyan National IDs, East African Passports, and Foreigner Certificates. The SDK captures front/back document images and performs 3D passive liveness face matching against official record photos.
KYB checks validate official KRA PIN tax registry status, Certificate of Incorporation/Business Name details, and directorship cross-checks to verify beneficial ownership structures.
