What if my name doesn’t match my Australian identity documents?

IDVerse is an AI powered and secure identification system through Equifax. It lets us confirm your identity by checking details of a valid Australian ID document (physical Driver’s Licence or Passport) without you having to come in and meet us face to face. We use this to reduce fraudulent applications. 

It is a simple online process that starts with an SMS (this is the only time we will send you a link within an SMS).

• Step one – SMS: An SMS with the online verification link will be sent to your mobile number that was used for the start of the application.
• Step two – ID: Take a photo of either your Driver’s Licence or your Australian Passport, from which we will read your details from.
• Step three – Selfie: Then you take a selfie, which we will match against the photo from your ID Document used in Step two.
• Step four – Submit: Lastly you check that the pre-filled details are correct and submit!
