Summary
greenID is an identity verification system which collects details about a consumer's identity and compares them against authoritative sources of identity data to see if there is a match. To use greenID, the greenID verification process must be embedded into other systems using API, Web and/or Mobile SDK options. Verification results can be retrieved via those channels and/or via the greenID Admin Panel.
