Global verification of student identity
We help you with smooth remote verification of students' identities, with user privacy protected. This helps you to provide secure access to campus, housing, learning platforms, discounts and student loans.
The campus card needs a supplement
Student Admissions
Sending photos of ID documents required for admissions over email is neither smooth nor GPDR compliant and may risk admissions.
Service Onboarding
Campus cards are no longer sufficient to apply for services needed in the study country. KYC is required, while students typically sign up for housing and subscriptions remote, from their home country.
Student Discounts
To prevent discounts and bookings being used by the wrong person, verification of legal identity in combination with student status is common, for example for travel tickets.
Campus Access
Access to physical as well as digital student resources such as campuses and learning platforms increasignly require a stronger student authentication for security and cheat prevention.
