Question on: SheerID
[How does SheerID verification work?](/discussions/how-does-sheerid-verification-work)

How does SheerID verification work?

There's a few questions that display via a pop-up, that differ based on the program. Verification happens immediately in most cases, unless the person needs to submit documentation for the SheerID team to review. There's different ways to then apply the promo code, based on how you choose to set up your program.

Question on: Entrust IDV, formerly Onfido
[What is Onfido used for?](/discussions/what-is-onfido-used-for)

What is Onfido used for?

Onfido makes it easy for people to access services by digitally verifying them using our Real Identity Platform. We help businesses to tailor verification methods to individual user and market needs in a no-code, orchestration layer – combining the right mix of document and biometric verifications, trusted data sources, and passive fraud signals to meet their risk, friction and regulatory requirements. Onfido Atlas™ AI powers the platform’s fully-automated, end-to-end identity verification. Developed in-house for over 10 years, it’s how we ensure our analysis is fair, fast and accurate. Typically, Onfido is used to establish trust in a customer accessing a service digitally — for example, verifying a customer signing up to a bank as part of KYC / AML requirements, validating a customer age on iGaming platforms, and verifying a driver's license and proof of ownership of that license for transportation. We do this using a blend of verification methods, such as asking a customer to take a picture of their government-issued ID and a selfie using their smartphone, or checking background fraud signals such as device and geo-location.
