# zkID Integration — Private Identity Layer

To align with the evolving regulatory landscape while preserving individual privacy, ZKVerge integrates **zkID** — a decentralized identity system powered by **zero-knowledge credentials**.

**Key Capabilities:**

* **ZK KYC/AML:**\
  Users can cryptographically prove they are KYC-verified without revealing their actual identity, documents, or wallet connections.
* **Reputation Without Exposure:**\
  Businesses can assign trust scores or compliance levels to anonymous users through zk attestations.
* **ZK Receipt Binding:**\
  Receipts and payments can be optionally linked to zkID credentials, enabling regulatory compliance without on-chain data exposure.
* **Enterprise Integration:**\
  zkID allows institutions to onboard users under verifiable compliance frameworks, bridging the gap between Web3 privacy and Web2 regulation.
