Biometrics

Biometric verification is any means by which a person can be uniquely identified by evaluating one or more distinguishing biological traits.

It is possible to have biometrics checked as part of your onboarding recipe and to trigger biometrics via three channels:

1. API Biometrics: In your onboarding flow you can trigger Biometrics
2. Smart UI Biometrics: Using our Smart UI you can enable Biometrics checks
3. Portal Biometrics: In our Portal you can manually trigger Biometrics
