In Botswana, Addison & Western (Pty) Ltd, founded by One Oreeng, is a company known for providing marketing and project management services to its clients, It’s sister company, Certus, which provides technology-driven service as a software solution to ease the traditional KYC onboarding process, is now offering a KYC (Know Your Customer) solution that digitizes the AML compliance process. Certus is 100% citizen owned and woman led.


The Certus KYC solution has a web app as well as a mobile app. The solution assists finance and non-finance institutions with their customer due diligence KYC (Know Your Customer) process. The system is easily integrated into the pre-existing system for a seamless workflow. What makes this new product and service offering different is that currently, the move to software services where KYC is concerned is currently lacking as companies still rely on hard documents from clients. In the time of Covid-19, going digital is imperative to businesses while managing their costs.

A soft launch of the Certus KYC Solution is planned via the company’s website and through target email marketing.

Speaking about the aspirations for the new solution, founder One Oreeng says, “

“To ease the process of KYC, we are all consumers of various institutions that require this information for compliance to combat money laundering. Our solution provides a one-stop shop for this without consumers having the frustration of duplicating the process for different institutions. It is a simple and convenient solution that can pool all relevant companies.”

For those interested in knowing more, demos of the system are being offered to customers. Contact info@addissonwestern.com for more details or visit the website: http://addissonwestern.com
