How does ID verification with Sumsub work?

Sumsub’s platform employs advanced technology to conduct ID verification. When a customer submits their document via photo or photographic scan, Sumsub analyzes it using a verified data set and biometrics and scans it for forgeries such as image manipulation, inconsistencies, and other signs of fraudulent activity. This automated identity verification process helps us confirm the user’s identity and comply with local regulations.

How the verification process looks:

In some cases, during the KYC verification of a Monetag customer's account, it might be required to process the check via the Sumsub service.

  • You will either be requested to verify your identity by clicking the 'Verify my identity' link when you log in to your Monetag account.

    OR
    You will receive an e-mail from Monetag.com containing a verification link
    ​(the e-mail will be sent to the address your Monetag account is registered with)
    ​

  • Once you click the link, it will redirect you to the Sumsub service
    ​

  • To proceed with the verification, you should agree to the Consent to Processing of Personal Data by the service
    ​

  • Follow the required steps to complete the verification

    (you may be asked to provide a picture of your passport, driver’s license, selfie, or other documents)

  • If the Sumsub verification is completed successfully, in 1-3 days you will see a notification in your Monetag account stating that your profile is verified.
