Customer Success

What Customers Say About Protecting Account Access

Teams use okID to bring identity verification into sensitive account journeys without turning every routine interaction into another security check.

“Before okID, we spent too much time verifying customers manually at events. As our business and customer base grew, we expected to hire more people just to keep up with the workload. okID made the process much easier by automating key verification checks, reducing manual work, and helping our team onboard more customers and event staff without increasing headcount.”

It checks the person behind the request rather than relying only on a password, OTP, or active session. Depending on the risk, the customer may be asked to complete a face match, liveness check, document scan, or contact verification.

okID can add identity reverification before access is restored. This is particularly useful when the customer’s password, trusted device, email address, or phone number may have been lost or compromised.

Common triggers include account recovery, an unfamiliar device, contact-detail changes, new beneficiaries, withdrawals, large payments, or activity that does not match the customer’s usual journey.

The affected channel should not be accepted as the only proof of identity. A separate biometric or document check can confirm the customer before contact details are changed or account access is restored.

Your existing system can start an okID verification journey through an API, SDK, webhook, or hosted flow. okID then returns a structured result to the workflow where the request began.

It does not need to challenge every user. Additional checks can be reserved for events where the risk justifies them, allowing normal account activity to continue without interruption.
