Why digital identity verification?

Digital identity verification replaces slow, in-person ID checks with instant, remote verification. Your client receives a secure link, scans their ID on their phone, and completes a biometric selfie check—all in under 2 minutes.

This is essential for Australian businesses subject to Tranche 2 of the AML/CTF Act. From July 1, 2026, you must verify every client's identity before providing designated services. Traditional methods (photocopying IDs, in-person meetings) are slow, expensive, and error-prone.

Digital identity verification solves this with:

  • Speed: Verification completed in 60 seconds, not days
  • Security: Biometric liveness checks prevent fake IDs and deepfakes
  • Compliance: AUSTRAC-approved method with audit-ready reports
  • Convenience: Clients verify from anywhere, on any device

How identity verification works

AML Watchlist Screening

Checks the individual against global sanctions lists, PEPs, and financial crime databases.
