Selfie Check

...

While document checks provide a defence against the use of fraudulent identity documents, fraudsters can get access to legitimate stolen documents. To prevent this, the Open Bank service can perform selfie checks on your membership accounts.

Selfie checks look for distinguishing biological traits, such as face geometry, from a photo ID and a picture of your user’s face. The AI service then uses advanced machine learning algorithms to ensure the face pictures belong to the same human.
