KYC

Add your own custom field to a KYC form

Add your own question to a KYC form, pick the answer type, and reuse it later from your saved field library.

Add your own custom field to a KYC form

The ready-made sections cover most of what a UAE KYC needs, but sometimes you want one extra question of your own, such as a LinkedIn profile or an internal reference. You can add your own field to any form, and IzzyTap saves it so you can reuse it next time.

Open the form builder

The Custom field box on the right of the builder where you type a label and pick an answer type.

  1. Log in to your workspace.
  2. In the left menu, under Compliance, click KYC forms.
  3. Click New template, or Edit on an existing template.

On the right, below Add a section, you will see a box titled Custom field.

Add a field

Typing a field label, choosing the answer type and pressing Add to place it in the form.

  1. In the Custom field box, type a clear label in the field-label box, for example LinkedIn profile or Introducer name.
  2. From the dropdown next to it, choose the answer type (see the list below).
  3. Click Add.

The field appears in your form inside an Additional details section, which sits just before the locked declaration and signature. You can add as many custom fields as you need.

To remove a custom field, click the small X next to it in the Additional details block.

The answer types

When you add a field you pick how the contact answers it:

  • Text for a short line such as a name or reference.
  • Long text for a paragraph.
  • Date for a calendar date.
  • Number for figures only.
  • Phone for a phone number.
  • Email for an email address.
  • Dropdown for a list of choices.
  • Yes / no for a simple yes-or-no question.
  • Document upload for a file.

Your reusable field library

Every custom field you add is also saved to your firm's field library, so you never have to type it again.

  • The next time you build a form, any saved fields appear under From your library in the Custom field box.
  • Click a field there to add it straight to the form you are building.

Note

If you try to add a field whose label is very close to one you already have, IzzyTap shows the message "You've already added a field with a similar name." This stops you creating two fields that clash. Add it once from From your library instead of typing it again.

Tip

After adding custom fields, click Preview in the bottom bar to see exactly how the Additional details section looks to the contact. See Preview a KYC form before you save or send it.
