Verification checks

Learn about the different verification checks supported by Stripe Identity.

Copy page

This page is about Stripe Identity verification checks, to learn more about Connect identity verification, please visit Handling verification with the API. If you’re trying to verify your identity as part of getting started with your Stripe account, please visit this page.

Stripe Identity currently supports five types of verification checks: document, selfie, ID number, address, and phone.

Each verification check requires different information from your user, has different coverage, and has a different verification flow. After you’ve integrated one check, you can add another with minimal changes to your integration.

Address checks provide a way to verify a user’s name, date of birth, and address. Stripe uses a combination of third-party data sources such as credit agencies or bureaus, utility or government-issued databases, and others to verify the provided address.

To add address checks to your app, see Creating a VerificationSession.
