How do I Scan ID in Person?

The verification of identity process can be completed in-person if your customer has presented at your business with their documentation.

The Scan ID in Person feature is available on all account types - if you don't see it in the Management Portal and would like to use it, please contact us.

 

In-person VOIs require your client's physical presence with their identity documents. You'll need to use a compatible device to scan your client's documents.
