REQUIREMENTS
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- WHMCS 8.0 - 9.x
- PHP 7.4+ (8.1+ recommended) with the cURL extension
- HTTPS enabled (required for provider redirects and webhooks)
- Optional: PHP "sodium" extension (for document encryption at rest)
- An account with at least one verification provider, OR use manual review

INSTALLATION (about 5 minutes)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Upload the "modules" folder from this package into your WHMCS root so the
module ends up at:

<your-whmcs>/modules/addons/ekycguard/

Merge it with your existing "modules" directory — do NOT replace it.

2. In the WHMCS admin area, open:
Configuration (spanner icon) > System Settings > Addon Modules
(older WHMCS: Setup > Addon Modules)

3. Find "eKYC Guard" and click Activate. Tick the admin role(s) that should
have access, then click Save Changes.

4. Click Configure. Enter your License Key, choose your enforcement options
and verification provider(s), then Save.

5. Open Addons > eKYC Guard > "Settings & endpoints" and copy the webhook
and redirect URLs shown there into each provider's dashboard.

Done. Customers must now pass identity verification before any service or
domain is provisioned.

Activation automatically creates the module's database tables, installs the
customer email templates, generates the document-encryption key, and a
private storage directory.

LICENSING
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Enter the License Key you received with your purchase in the addon's
"License Key" field. Your license is bound to your WHMCS domain. If the key
is missing or invalid the module fails safe — it disables enforcement (your
provisioning keeps working) and shows a renewal notice in the admin area.

See LICENSE.txt for the full terms.
