nfc-first Identity Verification

Secure, Flawless, and Easy
Mobile Identity Verification

Because the smartphone-minded generation expects nothing less. Why make identity document verification more complicated than needed? Or compromise on security? NFC combines a great user experience with maximum security.

ReadID identity verification

In two simple steps, you can verify any electronic identity document. Easy to use with high conversion, scalable, simple to implement, and more secure than any other technology.

Compliment NFC with biometrics for holder verification or optical technologies as a fallback. ReadID offers excellent orchestration opportunities for other technologies to help you build a complete onboarding process.

2600

ReadID has been proven to work with over 2600 models of smartphones

Today, almost anyone knows how to operate a smartphone, and most smartphones have built-in NFC functionality. In-store payments with NFC have become a common sight. We use that same technology for reliable ID verification. It makes identity verification safe, secure, quick, easy, and saves staff and customers oceans of time spent per exchange, both online and in face-to-face situations.

We were the first mobile NFC-based technology provider in 2014, and were the first on iPhone in 2019.

Using just a smartphone and an electronic identity document, ReadID technology can verify your customers' identity. Instantly. It is the most trustworthy identity verification solution on the market. ReadID can be combined with facial biometric technology for holder verification as an extra layer of assurance, and optical verification can be orchestrated through partners as a fallback- no need to miss any opportunity.

Simplify your identity verification process with NFC

Create conversion

Ultimately, remote identity verification should bring conversion, and not churn. KYC or reKYC should be easy for your customers, increasing trust and strengthening the brand. Many of our clients show that ReadID improves conversion in their digital channels. No need to worry about smartphone and eID coverage. Our dynamic user guidance ensures a smooth customer experience.

Scalability on demand

The need for identification can vary over time. New use cases or regulations can cause a steep growth in demand for trusted identification. Contrary to the technologies we replace, such as optical verification and video identification, ReadID technology is fully automated and has almost unlimited scalability. We run our service in secure public cloud infrastructures, fitting to the region, and scaling with demand. No manual labour or employees needed. Our solutions are continuously monitored to grow with the demand. If demand goes down, we can scale down with it.

Easy to use

ReadID is built upon knowledge derived from millions of transactions from over 2600 different models of smartphones. From our extensive experience and millions of scans of documents worldwide, we have learned how to deal with this tremendous diversity. ReadID is fast and verifies in real-time; the total customer journey, including the verification, takes less than one minute.

In face-to-face situations, your staff will need very little training with ReadID to become identity document experts.

Security as a top priority

Only the NFC chip in electronic identity documents allows secure verification. These identity documents can be verified in seconds. Manipulated and copied documents are always detected, 100% of the time. We collaborate with the best face verification partners for holder verification, adding an extra layer of security and assurance.

Simple implementation

ReadID is straightforward to evaluate and implement. Our free personal app ReadID Me is readily available on the App Store and the Google Play store. Our ready-to-use ReadID Ready app can be tailored to your brand’s look and feel. It can be up and running within days. Our SDK can be integrated in any mobile application through well-documented APIs.

Thanks to ReadID, it is now possible to leave your physical driving license at home in the drawer and use the Kørekort-appen instead. This app is a digital version of a driving license that works both as a valid driving license in Denmark and a valid form of ID. “It clearly shows that there is a demand in the population for a digital alternative to the physical driving license,” says Minister of Transport Benny Engelbrecht in a comment.
