<p>Real ID’s document verification helps remove friction during fulfillment by quickly and easily detecting whether a government-issued ID is genuine or fraudulent. All the user needs to do is take a photo of their ID and a selfie on their mobile device.</p>
<p>Real ID uses cutting-edge A.I. to verify the authenticity of the ID and instantly match the face on the ID to the selfie submitted by the customer.</p>
<p>Quickly and simply require ID verification before, during, or after checkout—or even during account registration for members-only sites or wholesale accounts.</p>

<h4>How does ID verification help your business?</h4>
<p>With your customers’ verified ID and selfie photos, you’re able to prove their shipping address. This gives you far more weight on your side during chargeback disputes and effectively eliminates “friendly fraud” losses.</p>
<p>And if you need to perform age verification checks for purchases of restricted goods, Real ID’s document verification takes care of that too. We’ll confirm a user’s date of birth by verifying their ID to help you manage and reduce risk at checkout.</p>
<h4>Verify once per account, not per order</h4>
<p>After a customer verifies their ID, their account on your store will be remembered for future purchases, increasing your conversion rate and lowering friction because it’s a trusted account.</p>
<h4>IDs stored on your private cloud</h4>
<p>No customer PII (Personally Identifiable Information) is stored on your WordPress site. We securely store all IDs on your behalf and respect all data deletion requests.</p>
<h4>Control when ID verification is required</h4>
<p>Require ID verification at any point during your customer’s purchasing journey. Real ID can be set up without code to verify IDs:</p>
<ul>
<li>Before checkout</li>
<li>After checkout</li>
<li>During account registration</li>
<li>On custom pages using our <a href="https://getverdict.com/help/docs/js" title="The Real ID JavaScript SDK documentation" rel="nofollow ugc">JavaScript SDK</a></li>
</ul>
<p>You can even limit ID verification to specific shipping addresses or products. For custom use cases, you can use our REST API to trigger an ID verification.</p>
