Melissa ID:Introduction
Melissa ID is an ID and Document Scanning solution allowing business to successfully enable robust security giving a smarter and more secure alternative to Knowledge Based Authentication (KBA).
Using Melissa ID starts in the business portal, where you can configure your business and document requirements, control the flow of the verification process, onboard new clients to verify, monitor all stages of the process, take corrective actions and view Customer Due Diligence reports stored securely on the cloud.
Verifying new clients begins by sending a link via text, email or by sharing the link manually. Once they have clicked the link, they will be directed to the Apple or Google Play store respectively. The app will guide them through the process which may liveness checks, document scanning and uploading results for your review in the Business Portal.
Business Portal Workflow
Step 1
- Send customer a download link for the Melissa ID app via text or email.
- The customer will be prompted to continue to the verification process.
Step 2
- When the customer has completed the verification process through the app, the customer submission is ready for review.
- The portal will take the reviewer through each uploaded document so that the data can be double-checked, modified, rejected or flagged for further action if needed.
- The documents will also undergo advanced technical checks that confirm documents have not been forged or tampered with.
Step 3
- A Customer Due Diligence report will be generated. This report can be accessed anytime by clicking the Reports tab on the left-hand navigation in the portal.
