Digital Identity Verification API
Our digital identity verification API allows for remote ID validation and face matching using a mobile device. It compares the fields contained in the 2D barcode / or passport Machine Readable Zone (MRZ) to the data read via OCR from front side of a document. Additionally, it can compare the ID photo to a selfie taken by the user to create a match score. These three images are used to calculate a trust score which is then returned to the client application. Keep reading to learn more about our SDKs & APIs.
Use the links below to test our API’s capabilities, or request API keys.

Available Third Party Check Add-Ons
Enhance your identity verification. These third party checks can be priced in bulk, or per scan.

ID Parsing SDKs
IDScan.net’s ID parsing software development kit (SDK) allows you to incorporate ID and passport reading capabilities into your own application. Our state of the art component is made for developers and can read the digital data from the magnetic stripe and 2D barcode from driver’s licenses, state-issued ID cards, military ID cards, common access cards (CAC), gun permits, and Canadian health cards.

Camera Scanning SDKs
The Camera Scanning SDK allows integration into an iOS or Android application. The information from the 2D Barcode on a Driver’s License or ID is captured using the device’s camera (5 Megapixels camera or better). If you are planning to integrate ID scanning and parsing into a mobile application, or perform ID scanning on a mobile device, you will need both the ID Parsing SDK and the Camera Scanning SDK.
