Identity verification


Why am I asked to verify my identity?

Why am I asked to verify my identity?

  • When you interact with businesses in-person, identity verification happens all the time. For example: When purchasing alcohol, a cashier may ask for a photo ID to check your age.
  • When making a transaction at a bank, a teller may ask for an ID document to make sure that you’re the owner of the account.
  •  When checking into a hotel, a concierge may ask to make a photocopy of your passport for insurance purposes.

     As more businesses move online and no longer interact with customers face-to-face, Plavito Identity helps these businesses confirm that you are who you claim to be.  

     How does verify my identity?   

    The easiest way to verify identities: click the "Register" button at the top right and Create a Plavito Account.  A Plavito Account gives you access to Plavito products. With a Plavito Account, you can do things like: Send and receive messages using Plavito. Find home, job, hotel, airport taxi, and services.

    After an Account has been created, we’ll ask you pay a small fee €10 as a payment for verification.   
    Use pay@plavito.com or paypal.me/plavito via ibauer group to make a payment.  
    Choose Sending to a friend! It is possible to send money for free with PayPal Friends and Family.

If your payment cannot be completed within 24 hours, we may suspend your access to the Services until payment is received. You can ignore this reminder if you know the payment has already been made.

 WHY IS THERE A €10 PLAVITO VERIFICATION FEE?

When you’re sending and receiving messages, “Verified” status is your stamp of approval. It lets other Plavito members know you’re a confirmed Plavito member with a current, active bank account. Boost your credibility and the overall security of the Plavito network.
