How we use Stripe Identity

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.

How it works

Hosts must complete identity verification when creating a listing for a sublet. Both hosts and guest can complete ID verification on their profile.

1

User Initiates Verification

During onboarding or listing creation, users are prompted to verify their identity.

2

Document Upload

Users upload a government-issued ID (passport, driver’s license, or national ID).

3

Facial Recognition

Users take a live selfie to match their ID.

4

Stripe Identity Review

Stripe securely processes and verifies the information.

5

Verification Confirmation

Once approved, users get the 'ID verified' badge on their profile.
