ID checks
A selfie and a document, checked automatically in under a minute. Verified profiles get a badge and the rest do not. You decide whether to make it compulsory.
Under a minute
She photographs a document and takes a selfie. An outside company compares them and confirms the person is real and is the one on the document. You get an answer automatically.
Nobody at your end sees the papers
The documents never reach your site. Only the answer does. That keeps you out of the business of storing other people’s identity documents, which is a liability you do not want.
Compulsory or not, your call
You can require it before publishing, or leave it optional and let the badge do the work. Verified profiles carry it, the rest do not, and visitors learn the difference within one visit.
