Veriff is an identity verification provider that uses AI and facial analysis to verify end-user identity through document and selfie verification. Their platform supports two distinct integration types: IDV (identity document verification) and Biometric Authentication. IDV covers document-plus-selfie verification, document-only verification, and full auto verification flows. Biometric Authentication uses an approved IDV session as the enrollment reference, then enables ongoing face-based authentication without requiring document re-submission on each challenge.

Authsignal partners with Veriff to provide both IDV and biometric authentication as part of our platform. The IDV integration handles identity verification at onboarding or re-KYC points. The biometric authentication integration then connects to the enrollment integration, allowing Authsignal to trigger face verification challenges against a stored biometric template for returning users.

The integration works through Authsignal's authentication flows. When a Veriff challenge is triggered, the end-user completes the verification flow via Veriff's SDK or web flow. Veriff returns a decision via webhook, which Authsignal uses to allow or deny the action based on your configured rules. All verification session outcomes are logged in Authsignal for audit purposes.

Who this integration is for:

  • Financial services and fintech companies requiring document-based identity verification at onboarding
  • Organisations with KYC or re-KYC obligations that need a verifiable audit trail of identity checks
  • Platforms wanting to enrol users once via IDV, then authenticate them biometrically on subsequent sessions
  • High-value transaction environments requiring strong identity assurance beyond OTP or passkeys

Key benefits:

  • Two integration types - IDV for document verification and Biometric Authentication for ongoing face-based challenges, both supported through Authsignal
  • Multiple verification flows - Document-plus-selfie, document-only, and full auto options to suit your use case
  • Biometric enrollment from IDV - Approved IDV sessions automatically generate a biometric template for future authentication, so users only go through document verification once
  • Decision webhooks - Veriff returns session decisions that feed directly into Authsignal's rules engine
  • Veriff Station - Manage and observe all verification sessions through Veriff's Customer Portal
