BondFICA

Client checks for property deals — without the chase.

BondFICA helps conveyancers and bond attorneys collect and check client documents so every matter stays ready to move.

What it does

Before a property can transfer or a bond can register, your firm needs the right client details and identity documents on file.

BondFICA gives you a calm place to request those documents, let clients send them in — or upload them yourself when a client cannot use the portal — then review them, run VerifyNow identity and KYC checks, risk-score the party, and pack everything matter by matter.

Built for busy property practices

Simple tools for the work your firm already does — collecting client information, checking it carefully, and keeping the file together.

Less chasing

Invite clients once. They upload what you need from home, on their phone or computer.

Always know what's missing

See at a glance which documents are in, which need another look, and what is still outstanding.

Ready when the deal is

Keep everything for a matter in one place so your team is prepared for registration day — and for questions later.

Features that match how conveyancing works

Built for South African conveyancing CDD — portal clients, walk-in assisted uploads, VerifyNow KYC, RMCP-aligned risk scoring, and encrypted matter evidence packs. The firm remains accountable for its RMCP and statutory filings.

01Client portal or firm-assisted

Send a magic link when clients can self-serve — or upload FICA documents yourself when they attend your offices, with a clear audit trail of who collected what.

02VerifyNow identity & KYC checks

Integrated with VerifyNow for South African Home Affairs ID verification, AML / PEP / sanctions screening, and CIPC company checks — run after document approval, with results feeding the Risk Engine.

03Risk scoring against your RMCP rules

Automatic Low / Medium / High scoring from the firm's configured rules after verification, with explainable flags, recommended actions, and controlled overrides. BondFICA does not replace your approved RMCP.

04Certificates and audit packs

Generate a CDD summary certificate and an encrypted audit pack that shows upload attribution, risk assessments, and the full matter history. These evidence what was collected and decided — they do not discharge statutory filing obligations.

How it works

Three clear steps from new matter to a documented CDD file for that transaction — not a substitute for the firm's wider FICA programme.

  1. STEP 1

    Open a matter

    Add the property deal and the people involved.

  2. STEP 2

    Collect the file

    Invite clients to the portal, or mark the party firm-assisted and upload documents on their behalf.

  3. STEP 3

    VerifyNow, score, and pack

    Approve documents, run VerifyNow KYC checks and risk scoring, then generate the certificate and audit pack.
