Our Joining ID Verification Process

What is Yoti? 

Yoti is a secure, easy-to-use identity verification platform that allows individuals to prove their identity quickly and safely. Through Yoti, new members can submit a photo ID, additional documentation, and a face scan, which Yoti verifies to confirm their identity. This secure system helps us ensure that each member is who they say they are, adding another layer of security for our community.

  • We use Yoti to securely check your identity online – it’s quick, simple, and designed to make joining as smooth as possible.
  • Whether it’s a standard ID check or extra steps for added security, everything happens in one easy flow.
  • Any extra checks run quietly in the background, so your experience stays hassle-free.

Our Identification Process

We have now introduced electronic identity verification to our new Member process. A new joiner will be sent to our partner Yoti, which will scan and verify your photo ID, other documentation plus a face scan. This all helps new joiners to demonstrate they are who they say they are.
