Why should I use Digital Identity Verification?

Digital Identity Verification checks add another layer of protection against fraud to your company. It also speeds up the onboarding process, turning a previously manual task, into a fully automated one.

What are the advantages of checking identity digitally?

There are 5 main advantages to Digital Identity Verification checks:

  1. Saving time - the clearest advantage of moving to a digital process is the time saved to the employer and the Candidate. Rather than having to manually check each Candidate's documents in person, and store them properly, VETTING.com will do both jobs in one go!
  2. Speed – by passing the responsibility over to the Candidate to upload their documents on to VETTING.com during the application process, the whole ID checking process speeds up.
  3. Reliability – as with any digital process, Digital Identity Verification removes the risk of human error, ensuring your Candidates are who they say they are.
  4. Quality – Digital Identity Verification scans the biometric data on the ID document, ensuring it hasn't been forged.
  5. Worldwide availability – VETTING.com can check documents from over 250 countries, states and territories.
How long does Digital Identity Verification take?

Only a few minutes! That's the joy of it – you request a Digital Identity Verification check from your Candidate as part of your background screening process, the Candidate uploads and submits their documents, we verify them, and you see the results within just a matter of minutes!

  • Passport
