Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers about how UniFace Verify works.

What is a UnifaceID?

A unique code issued after you complete a camera liveness verification and pay for an access period. Anyone can use it to check that a verified person holds it.

Is a UnifaceID a government ID or KYC document?

No. It confirms a live human completed UniFace Verify. It is not a passport, national ID or financial KYC check.

What does a public lookup show?

Verification status, verification date and the verified name. Email, phone, country and gender require a paid unlock or an API key.

What data do you store?

Account and contact details, verification results, payment references and a face embedding used for duplicate detection. See Security & Privacy.

How do I pay?

By M-Pesa STK push using a Kenyan phone number. See Pricing.

Can I integrate it into my app?

Yes. Use the REST endpoints described in the API documentation.

Can I try the liveness check first?

Yes, the liveness test works without an account. It does not issue a UnifaceID.
