Typical id verification flow today

Traditional identity verification is slow, expensive, and easy to fake.

Most id verification services in Singapore still rely on document uploads and selfie matching. That means OCR errors, manual review queues, and a growing pile of stored ID images that becomes a PDPA liability the moment it's breached.

Meanwhile, every person you're trying to verify already has a government-issued digital identity in their pocket. Singpass.

Why not use the identity system that already exists?

Singpass is trusted by 97% of Singapore residents. Identity data comes straight from MyInfo, the government's verified personal data platform.

Try it: NRIC checksum checker

A checksum check is where most "identity verification" in Singapore still stops. Try it below, then note what it cannot tell you — more on that in our guide to NRIC validation.

Runs entirely in your browser — nothing you type is sent or stored.

> Enter an NRIC or FIN to check the checksum

A valid result only means the checksum math works.

The NRIC algorithm is public — anyone can generate fake numbers that pass this check. This is format validation, not identity verification. From 31 December 2026, PDPC rules bar using NRIC numbers to authenticate people.

How it works

Document-based IDV vs Singpass verification

Two approaches to identity verification. One involves documents, queues, and stored images. The other takes 3 seconds.

Traditional ID verification
  • User uploads a photo of their IC or passport
  • Selfie matching against the document photo
  • OCR extracts text (with frequent errors)
  • Manual review for flagged submissions
  • ID images stored on your servers (PDPA risk)
  • Per-verification fees add up fast
Singpass identity verification
  • User taps "Verify with Singpass" on their phone
  • Biometric auth via Singpass app (Face ID / fingerprint)
  • Verified data pulled from government MyInfo database
  • No manual review needed. 100% accuracy.
  • No documents stored. Only masked NRIC kept.
  • Singpass Login is free for up to 50K verifications/month
