Morocco-based digital identity startup VOVE ID has secured investment from The Baobab Network, a UK-based accelerator focused on early-stage African tech ventures. The funding, whose amount was not disclosed, will help VOVE ID scale its AI-powered Know Your Customer (KYC) platform across Africa and the Middle East.

Founded in 2024 by Khalid Aoussar, Tarik, and Youssef, the company aims to simplify identity verification for businesses by enabling users to verify once, use everywhere, offering digital identity portability across platforms. Its tools include biometric authentication, document validation, and automated compliance checks, catering to startups and SMEs typically priced out of enterprise-grade regtech.

The capital injection will support product development, regional expansion, and hiring. VOVE ID joins The Baobab Network’s accelerator programme, gaining access to mentorship and investor networks to navigate regulatory hurdles and deepen market penetration.

Key Takeaways

As financial services and digital commerce grow across Africa, demand for efficient, compliant identity verification is rising. The global KYC market is expected to reach $18.6 billion by 2027, driven by regulatory pressure, digital onboarding needs, and fraud prevention. Africa’s fragmented ID systems and informal economies present both a challenge and an opportunity. Startups like VOVE ID are stepping in to bridge these gaps, leveraging biometric tools and machine learning to deliver affordable, modular, and scalable compliance solutions. With support from The Baobab Network and early traction across MENA, VOVE ID is positioning itself as a key player in the region’s regtech space, providing infrastructure for digital identity in markets where trust and verification are core to fintech, e-commerce, and platform growth.
