NFC document
Read compatible identity documents and passports, inspect chip data and validate the document information used by the journey.
SIGNCLOUD IDENTITY
Read the chip. Verify the face. Document the decision.
Choose NFC when a compatible identity document is available, camera when it is not, or let the person choose. The verification can run alone or inside a signature journey.
Use the control that matches the real need. Keep the result understandable and exportable.
Signature, Identity and Mail remain separate products and connect when the workflow requires it.
ALL IDENTITY CAPABILITIES
From document choice to enhanced attestation.
Identity uses the same verification controls in the suite and in the standalone product. Plans differ by volume and integration rights, not by weakening the verification method.

A proportionate identity check
Choose the capabilities that match your workflow and keep every step easy to understand.
Camera document
Capture front and back or passport data, inspect the visible document and compare it with a live selfie.
Controlled evidence
Review the decision, risk signals and event history. Retrieve protected evidence only through authorised, logged access.
THE RIGHT METHOD FOR THE DOCUMENT
Offer NFC, camera, or let the person choose.
The issuer does not need to guess which identity document the person holds. A single invitation can present the compatible methods at the start of the journey.
NFC identity document
Read a compatible electronic identity card or biometric passport and submit DG1, DG2 and SOD information for server-side validation.
Camera document
Capture an older identity card or passport, inspect visible document data and compare the portrait with a live selfie.
Free choice
Let the person select NFC or camera from the same link while preserving one verification reference and one consistent result model.
DOCUMENT AND PERSON
Connect document checks, liveness and facial comparison.
Identity combines the checks that actually ran and returns a documented decision instead of presenting a raw image as a result.
Document integrity
Inspect chip signatures and the CSCA chain for NFC journeys, or visible document and MRZ information for camera journeys.
Live selfie
Guide the person through liveness movements, facial comparison, anti-presentation controls and replay protection.
Risk review
Follow the status, event history, risk signals and technical failures from the authorised Console without exposing raw biometric images.
DECISION AND EVIDENCE
Use the result alone or inside Signature and Mail.
A verification can support a standalone identity check, an identity-linked signature journey or a reinforced e-mail delivery.
Operational result
Invite by e-mail or mobile, resend, cancel, manage expiry and retrieve the documented decision attached to the verification.
Standard outputs
Use the JSON assertion, PDF attestation and signed webhook events in the systems and workflows authorised for the organisation.
Enhanced attestation
Authorised users complete a step-up check before a one-time, logged retrieval from the protected evidence vault.
FROM ACTION TO EVIDENCE
