Verifications are granular and modular building blocks that help answer the question: “Is this person who they claim to be?” Verifications tie user-provided data to physical identities using documents, databases, biometrics, and more.
A verification type is a distinct method of verifying an individual’s identity. Persona offers a wide variety of verification types, such as government ID, selfie, document, and database verifications. You can mix and match these verification types within a single inquiry to meet your risk thresholds, compliance requirements, and user experience goals. Learn more about verification types.
