Capture

When an account is set up, Sumsub generates the user’s face map and acquires an image of his/her government-issued ID.

Verify

The system checks liveness and compares the 3D face map against the photo on the ID to confirm the identity of the user.

Authorize

At subsequent login or transaction approval, the system acquires a new face map that is compared to the original one.
