secuveri NFC

secuveri NFC completes the chip-reading step of an identity verification. When a business asks you to verify your identity with secuveri, you receive a secure link. That link opens this app, which reads the encrypted chip inside your passport or electronic ID card when you hold it against your phone. The result returns to the verification you already started, and you're done. READING THE CHIP Modern passports and national ID cards contain a contactless chip holding the same information printed on the document, digitally signed by the issuing country. secuveri reads that chip using your phone's NFC reader and verifies the country's signature, confirming the document is authentic and has not been altered. WHAT TO EXPECT - Open the link sent by the business requesting verification - Enter the details from your document's data page - Hold the back of your phone against the document and keep still - The chip is read in a few seconds and you return to where you began PRIVACY BY DESIGN - The chip is read on your device and sent over an encrypted channel - Processing takes place in Switzerland - Nothing remains on your phone after the session ends - No account, no sign-up, no advertising, no tracking REQUIREMENTS - An Android phone with NFC - A passport, national ID card or residence permit with a contactless chip (look for the chip symbol on the cover or card) - A verification link from a business using secuveri. The app cannot begin a verification on its own. secuveri NFC is operated by secuveri GmbH, Zug, Switzerland.
