Thirdfort ID Verification is a digital identity solution for regulated businesses to verify individuals quickly and securely. It complies with HM Land Registry's Digital ID Standard, HMRC guidelines, and the identity verification requirements for Companies House, and it is certified under the UK Government’s Digital Identity & Attributes Trust Framework. The system is designed to streamline client onboarding while maintaining strict AML and KYC compliance.
Its one-stop app lets clients complete verification on their mobile devices by receiving an SMS link and using NFC to read and verify digital signatures and signing keys used in e-passports. Thousands of identity documents from issuing government bodies worldwide can be validated. The platform also supports international addresses with high-accuracy matching using Experian data across 17 jurisdictions. Real-time PEPs and sanctions screening are performed with up-to-date sources, and reports can be securely shared with introducers to accelerate transactions. More than 1,000 regulated firms across the UK use Thirdfort, and over 1,500 regulated businesses rely on it for faster onboarding.
Implementation can reduce client onboarding time from five days to under 24 hours in many cases, delivering a smoother, more professional onboarding experience while maintaining strong fraud protection and data security. The process is designed to be intuitive: Step 1 select the ID verification you need through the portal or partner platform; Step 2 the client receives an SMS to download the app; Step 3 they complete the requested ID verification; Step 4 a report with clear, actionable results is delivered to the user.
