How does Veriff’s Biometric Authentication work?

Veriff’s biometric authentication confirms that a returning user is who they claim to be. Our biometric analysis identifies and mitigates fraudulent activities such as account takeover and identity theft.

Ask the user for a quick selfie, and replace legacy KBA and SMS 2FA.
The selfie is compared to a previously verified face and identity, and checked for liveness and realness.
Veriff sends the user back to your platform, and provides you with the authentication decision in about a second.
