How ID Verification protects your exams
Dual verification: face and name matching
We compare the candidate's live photo with their ID card photo and verify the name on the ID matches their registration. Both must pass for automatic approval.
Accepts all major ID types worldwide
Passports, government IDs, student cards, permanent resident cards—we recognize and validate dozens of ID formats from around the world.
Unlimited retakes, flexible verification
Candidates can retake photos as many times as needed to get it right. After 5 verification attempts, they can still proceed to the test—you'll just get a flag to review manually.
