Features

Accurate Identity Verification in Seconds

ID Verify uses a combination of artificial intelligence, computer vision and facial comparison technology to validate identity documents and confirm that the applicant matches their submission. Prospects upload a selfie and their chosen form of government ID from any smartphone or desktop, creating a frictionless user experience that greatly reduces the opportunity for fraud.

Reduce Fraud by Catching Bad Actors Early

Fraud continues to rise across the rental market, with tampered or stolen IDs becoming more sophisticated. ID Verify detects falsified documents, identifies mismatches and flags suspicious behaviour before the applicant reaches your team or enters a viewing pipeline.

All Major IDs Accepted

To suit diverse applicant needs, ID Verify supports multiple ID types, including:

Passports
Driving licences
National ID cards
VISAs

Cut Out Time‑Wasters and No‑Shows

Many “no‑show” prospects are either falsifying their identity or have no intention of progressing through the rental process. Requiring quick ID verification filters these prospects out early, ensuring your team only spends time with legitimate applicants.

Decrease Risk, Increase Genuine Applications

ID Verify strengthens your entire leasing workflow by ensuring that only genuine applicants enter your system. This reduces fraud‑related financial loss, lowers the incidence of bad debt, and leads to a more predictable, trustworthy application pipeline.

FAQ

What is Yardi ID Verify and how does it help prevent rental application fraud?

Yardi ID Verify is an identity verification tool that authenticates applicant documents and confirms that the person submitting them is who they claim to be. It uses computer vision and biometrics to detect fake or tampered IDs, helping property teams catch fraud early and reduce the risk of bad applications entering the pipeline.

How does ID Verify confirm an applicant’s identity?

The system asks prospects to upload a selfie and a government‑issued identification document. ID Verify compares the selfie to the document photo and uses AI to validate the authenticity of the ID. This process identifies fraudulent submissions in seconds and provides leasing teams with reliable verification results.

Where in the applicant journey can ID Verify be used?

ID Verify can be integrated at any point in the customer journey: before a tour is booked, at the start of the application, or immediately prior to screening. Implementing verification earlier in the process significantly reduces false bookings, wasted tours and unqualified enquiries.

Does ID Verify work for high‑volume portfolios?

Yes. ID Verify is built to work at scale, processing large volumes of applicants quickly and accurately. Its automated workflows help teams handle high enquiry levels without sacrificing quality or oversight.

What impact does ID Verify have on fraud levels?

ID Verify reduces fraud by authenticating documents and comparing biometric data before the application proceeds. Yardi’s fraud‑prevention guidance shows that early identity checks significantly mitigate risk by stopping fraudulent activity at the earliest possible stage.

Does using ID Verify protect revenue and reduce bad debt risk?

Yes. Fraudulent applicants often contribute to unpaid charges, chargebacks or early abandonment. By verifying identity before moving forward, operators materially reduce the likelihood of fraud‑related losses and improve confidence in resident selection.
