The technology initially checks the authenticity of the ID and compares facial similarity to ensure a match against the ID.

As an added security layer, the ID is then cross-referenced against international watchlists.

MoneyNetint CEO Yishay Trif said: “Onfido’s facial similarity  technology will allow us to help protect customers from fraudsters using fake IDs.

“After using their biometric services, we can now provide greater security to customers using our platform, who wish to send and receive money cross borders.”
