Rabobank Identity Services - Onfido

The Onfido API is an offering of Rabo Identity Services to identify users based on an identity document. Onfido supports 4.600 different identity documents from 195 different countries and therefore has a broad geographical coverage.

This API offers extensive capabilities to identify users, verify the authenticity of the document, and reduce the risk of identity fraud.

To gain more certainty about the user's identity, the identity verification can be expanded with a biometric verification and/or liveness verification. Facial recognition can also be used to determine whether the user matches their identity document.

Onfido does not process identity documents of natural persons under the age of 16.
