Fastkey works with Stripe to
conduct identity verification online. Stripe builds technology that’s used by
millions of companies around the world such as Amazon, Google, and Zoom. Stripe
helps with everything from accepting payments to managing subscriptions to
verifying identities.
Stripe helps Fastkey confirm identity by
conducting the following checks:
Stripe captures images of the front and back of your
government-issued photo ID and reviews it to make sure that the document is
authentic. They’ve built an automated identity verification technology that
looks for patterns to help determine if an ID document is real or fake. This
process is like a bank teller checking your ID document to confirm that it’s
real.
Stripe captures photos of your face and reviews them to
confirm that the photo ID belongs to you. They’ve built automated identity
verification technology that uses distinctive physiological characteristics of
your face (known as biometric
identifiers) to match the photos of your face with the photo on the ID
document. This process is similar to a bank teller confirming that the photo on
your ID document is you based on your appearance—but it’s a higher-tech and
more accurate way to identify you as a unique person.
Stripe collects your name, date of birth, and government ID
number, and validates that it’s real. They’ll check this information against a
global set of databases to confirm that it exists.
Stripe will ask for your consent before collecting and using
your biometric information. They’ll only use your verification data in
accordance with the permissions you
grant before starting the verification process, and based on their Privacy Policy.
