Accredited. Quick. Consistent.

The quickest and most reliable ID checks

Umbrella organisations who are registered with the Home Office to carry out remote identity verification as part of Basic, Standard and Enhanced DBS checks must now use a certified Identity Service Provider (IDSP) for the ID check part of the DBS process.    

OneID® is certified for the DBS scheme, and can offer flexible options for your customers to complete an ID check: 

  • A bank-based ID check. We are the only government-certified IDSP to support DBS checks that are document-free, enabling a completely digital user experience 
  • A document scan ID check. We can offer a document scanning journey if preferred. 

Please note, OneID® is an Identity Service Provider, not a DBS check provider.
