What is a Digital ID check?
A Digital ID Check is an online identity verification process that allows an applicant to confirm their identity using official documents and a smartphone.
The process typically involves:
- Uploading identification documents
- Verifying identity using facial recognition
- Completing checks securely online
This replaces the need for manual document handling and reduces the risk of errors or incomplete applications.
Why use Digital ID checks?
Faster applications
Digital ID checks can be completed in minutes, helping to reduce delays and keep DBS applications progressing smoothly.
Fewer errors and rejections
A guided process helps ensure that identity verification is completed correctly, reducing the likelihood of applications being delayed or rejected due to incorrect documentation.
Better experience for drivers
Applicants can complete their identity check at a time that suits them, without needing to attend in person or provide physical documents.
Less admin for your team
There is no need to manually check documents or chase applicants for missing information. Everything is completed and recorded within the system.

PDF Reports for Your Records
Every Digital ID check includes a downloadable PDF report, giving you a clear and structured record of the identity verification process.
This provides a simple way to store and reference key information without relying on screenshots, emails, or manual notes.
Having a formal record of each Digital ID check helps ensure your processes are transparent and consistent.
The PDF report can be used to:
- Keep a record of identity verification for each applicant
- Support internal reviews and decision-making
- Provide evidence during audits or inspections
- Maintain a clear audit trail across all applications
