How a Solidus verification feels.
Submit once. Get a credential. Reuse it anywhere. Here's exactly what happens from your side of the screen.
Tap "Start Verification"
When a Solidus-integrated service needs to verify you, you tap a button. The verification flow opens — either as a modal in the same tab or as a hosted page at verify.solidus.network. No account creation, no email-magic-link round-trip.
- Works in any browser, mobile or desktop
- Service identity verified before flow starts
- No account required at this step
Submit your ID
Take a photo of your government-issued ID — passport, driver license, or national ID. Auto-detect crops the document; you confirm the read. Then a 3-second liveness check (blink + small head turn) confirms you're a real person, not a photo.
- Camera or upload — your choice
- Face scan processed locally, then discarded
- No images stored after the credential is issued
Get your credential
Your verified identity is cryptographically signed and issued as a W3C Verifiable Credential. It lands in your DID wallet — browser extension, mobile app, or an in-flow wallet created on the spot. You see a colorful credential card with your verified attributes and a BBS+ proof badge.
- W3C VC standard format
- BBS+ signed · on-chain anchor
- You own and control the credential
Present anywhere
At the next Solidus-integrated service that needs to verify you, you tap "Use Solidus credential". Your wallet asks: "Share KYC L2 credential with [merchant]?" You approve. Done. No re-upload, no re-payment, no waiting.
- 1-tap reuse at every integrated service
- You choose what to share (selective disclosure)
- Verifier pays $0.05; you pay nothing
What we don't keep.
Selective disclosure means you reveal only what's strictly needed for the verification. Everything else stays in your wallet.
We don't keep face scans
Your liveness photo is processed locally, hashed for the proof, and discarded. We never store the image. Auditors can confirm the discard policy in the codebase.
We don't keep documents
Your ID document is parsed for the credential fields and immediately deleted from our servers. The credential carries the verified attributes — not the document image.
You hold the keys
Your DID wallet generates and stores the keys that prove the credential is yours. We cannot issue credentials in your name without your signature.
Common questions.
Your wallet supports social recovery — you set 3-of-5 guardians at setup (friends, family, hardware devices). If you lose access, the guardians can collectively restore your keys. If you didn't set guardians, you can also recover from a seed phrase. Reissuing the credential requires re-verification.
