What can I use a vouch to prove?

Vouchsafe allows users to get verified with the help of a trusted referee.

This can take all kinds of forms. For example, users without photo ID can nominate a referee instead.

In other situations, you might request a referee alongside other evidence.

A referee is most commonly used to prove identity, but you can use custom claims to ask the referee to attest to other things as well.

Vouchsafe customers use referees to help prove things like:

  • address

  • carer status

  • that the user is suitable for a role or position, as a character or employment reference

Vouchsafe supports two kinds of referee; personal and professional.

Custom claims is currently an opt-in feature. To enable it, email [email protected] with your team and verification flow name.
