How it works

Three simple steps

Verification is designed to be quick and unintrusive. Most members finish in the time it takes to make a coffee.

Step One

Choose a document

Select your issuing country and verify with a passport, national ID card, or driver’s licence.

Step Two

Capture your face

A short live scan confirms a real person is present and matches the photo on your document.

Step Three

You’re approved

Once both checks pass, your account unlocks and your details stay encrypted on file.

Why it matters

Real people. Real protection.

Behind every secure account is a simple promise: only you can act as you. Identity verification is how we keep that promise — quietly working in the background so trust is never in question.

Stops fraudsters from opening accounts in your name
Confirms the person behind the screen is genuinely you

Privacy & security

Your data, handled with care

We collect only what verification requires, and nothing more. Here’s exactly how your information is protected.

Encrypted end to end

Documents and scans are protected with 256-bit encryption from the moment they leave your device.

Used only to verify

Your information is reviewed solely to confirm your identity — never repurposed for anything else.

Never sold or shared

We do not share your documents with advertisers or third parties. Full stop.

You stay in control

Request a copy or deletion of your verification data at any time, in line with your rights.

Banking that knows it’s really you

A few quiet moments of verification are what let everything else feel effortless and secure.
