If you use the Biometric IDV option in 2Shakes you don’t need to do any other additional measures. The 2Shakes Biometric IDV option is very similar or the same as Example 2 in the DIA’s updated Explanatory Note, and satisfies the additional measures required.

Identity Verification Options

In 2Shakes you can choose to verify the identity of your customers:

  • BIOMETERIC: Biometric Identity verification adds another layer of certainty to the existing electronic ID verification method by capturing and assessing the ID document image against the person’s face in real time. Biometric includes Electronic IDV.

  • ELECTRONIC: Either yourself or you client can enter ID details. 2Shakes will data match the identity information against trusted external data sources and provide you with an electronic report.

  • MANUAL: Where you take copies of original Identity documents, or you get a trusted referee to certify copies of the originals on your behalf. You can make a note of how you did the identity verification and upload files or scans.
