At Swappin, we prioritize trust and security to ensure a safe and seamless experience for our community. To achieve this, we use Stripe Identity to verify user identities before they can list or book properties on our platform.
Swappin integrates Stripe Identity to securely verify user identities by allowing them to upload a government-issued ID and complete a facial verification check. This ensures that all users on the platform are real individuals, helping prevent fraud and unauthorized activity.
Hosts must complete identity verification when creating a listing for a sublet. Both hosts and guest can complete ID verification on their profile.
During onboarding or listing creation, users are prompted to verify their identity.
Users upload a government-issued ID (passport, driver’s license, or national ID).
Users take a live selfie to match their ID.
Stripe securely processes and verifies the information.
Once approved, users get the 'ID verified' badge on their profile.
