Document Authenticity Checks
Validate that submitted ID documents are genuine and unaltered before you approve, sign, or activate.
What is Document Authenticity?
Document authenticity checks validate that submitted identity documents are genuine and unaltered. WeVerify layers these checks on top of document capture and NFC where you use them, so teams can approve, sign, or activate with higher confidence.
