How do Digital Identity Checks work?
In just three easy steps, a prospective employee can submit their identity document and photograph for a Digital Identity Check.
Digital Identity Checks are a fast and secure way to validate your prospective employee’s identity. They’re faster than the current identity verification process as the applicant can upload their own documents via their smartphone and provide a real time face match. Unlike the traditional physical check, the new digital process can retrieve and check the biometric data from most documents, eliminating the risk from forged documents.
As the process is automated, we’ve reduced the risk of human error. This technology recognises and can validate passports, driving licences and other identity documents from over 200 countries around the world.
Paperless and hassle-free
Gone are the days of forwarding paperwork back and forth between candidates and businesses. Our Digital ID Checks can be completed entirely on a smart device, streamlining the process and making it more efficient for everyone involved. Once registered on our portal, inviting a candidate to complete the verification process is as simple as entering their basic contact details and E-Mail address. Your candidate will receive an E-Mail a few minutes later from where they can complete their side of the process.
There’s no more waiting for physical documents to be sent and received with the risk that they could be lost in the post. Instead, APCS’ Digital ID Checks offer a quick, digital solution.
Combating Fraud with Our Digital ID Checks
Fraud and forgery can pose a significant threat to businesses when it comes to identity document verification. At APCS, our Digital ID Checks go above and beyond traditional verification methods, using technology to ensure your business is protected against potential risks.
Our digital checks don’t just rely on a visual inspection of the documents. Instead, they utilise advanced biometric data scanning, providing a more thorough and accurate verification. By examining the unique biometric features within the documents, our system can detect even the most sophisticated forgeries, ensuring that you can have confidence in the identities of your candidates.
By adopting our Digital ID and Right to Work Checks, you’ll benefit from a more secure and reliable way to verify the identities and eligibility of your potential employees.
