Digital Identity Verification Benefits
Why use Aaron’s Department for your Digital Identity Verification Checks? Here are 6 quick reasons!
What Are Digital Identity Checks?
Digital Identity checks allow employers to quickly verify a potential, or current, employee’s identity quickly and accurately, without needing to physically see documents.
They can be used when doing a DBS check through Aaron’s Department, making the application process even faster and easier!
What is Digital Identity Verification?
Digital identity verification is proving that an identity is real without ever having to meet someone face-to-face. Using cutting-edge technology, it is possible to confirm that someone is who they say they are, and that their ID documents are real.
Identity Document Verification Process
The process of verifying an ID digitally is simpler than you may think, and can be done via a webpage or app.
In most cases, the applicant will be required to upload a photo of themselves (a liveness check), an Identity Document (e.g. passport), and proof of address.
During the process, there are clear instructions on how their selfie and documents need to be presented, meaning they spend less time trying to work out how to do it.
The results of the check can come back in a matter of minutes, allowing you to get on with the rest of your day!
Are Digital ID Checks Secure?
Yes! We understand that uploading your personal documents can be a bit of a worry for some, but your security is our priority! Working alongside Mitek, we’re able to offer a secure system that can give you, and your employees, peace of mind.
The system we use is guaranteed to meet all the necessary security requirements, and no data can be mined or sold to third parties.
