Ensure the individual completing identity verification checks is the rightful owner of the identity document, using facial matching biometrics.
Compare a live facial capture against an identity document to confirm the person is legitimate.
Detect impersonation attempts and prevent fraudsters and bad actors from gaining access to your business.
Enable secure identity verification without in-person checks, supporting reliable high-volume onboarding.
Facial matching biometrics are a form of identity verification that compares a person’s facial features captured during verification against a trusted reference, such as a government-issued ID document or an existing biometric record.
This process uses AI to analyse and match unique facial characteristics, providing a probabilistic confidence score that the individual presenting is the legitimate owner of the identity.
ID-Pal facial matching compares the face from an identity document to the face of the person completing the process, using information taken during liveness testing.
Our ID verification solution blends all our checks into one seamless, easy process.
ID-Pal performs up to 70 technical checks per document, to ensure authenticity and confidently reject suspicious submissions. Our multi-layered identity verification process then verifies the facial image present.
Unburden your team from the challenge of manual identity verification. Our cutting-edge facial matching technology instantly confirms that the face in a submitted ID matches the person present. A 50-point biometric facial comparison maps features as part of our identity verification process.
Liveness Checks confirm a real, live person is completing your identity verification process. ID-Pal Liveness Testing instantly assesses micro-variations in fraudulent techniques. This is why our Liveness Testing technology is independently certified to prevent the latest presentation attacks.

Facial matching technology is a sophisticated biometric tool used to verify and identify individuals by comparing digital images of faces. It’s widely used in security systems, mobile authentication, and by organisations to enhance identity verification processes, ensuring high levels of accuracy and security in real-time.
ID-Pal uses this technology to confirm that the face in a submitted ID matches the person present. A 50-point biometric facial comparison maps features as part of our identity verification process.
Facial matching technology converts converts facial images into representations, often called biometric templates, based on key facial landmarks and patterns.
These templates are compared to calculate a similarity score. Decision thresholds are applied to determine whether the match is accepted, rejected, or flagged for review.
Facial matching technology significantly enhances security by providing a reliable, non-intrusive method of verifying identities. It’s highly effective in preventing unauthorised access and fraud, especially in sectors like banking, retail, and public security. By integrating facial matching into security protocols, organisations can ensure that only authenticated individuals access sensitive information or physical locations.
This technology also supports regulatory compliance efforts, helping institutions meet stringent standards set for identity verification and privacy.
Facial matching alone is insufficient for robust fraud prevention as it fails to confirm the authenticity of the identity document or that the image of the person image of the person submitting the information is a real live person
No. Facial matching compares two facial images to assess similarity. Liveness testing determines whether the facial image was captured from a real, live person at the time of verification. In identity verification workflows, they serve different purposes but are both essential elements within a secure and reliable KYC flow.
Bias in facial matching can occur if the training data used by facial matching tools lacks demographic diversity, or if thresholds are poorly configured. Reputable providers test performance across age, gender, and ethnicity groups and publish results from independent evaluations to demonstrate fairness and consistency.
ID-Pal is proud to have set a new standard for bias-free biometrics, with up to 5x less bias than the next best global solution. This means our customers can be confident that identity verification works equally well for everyone – regardless of ethnicity, gender, and age groups.
