Why identity verification
Security that protects your business without slowing down the guest experience.
Block fake IDs and unauthorized bookings before arrival. Reduce chargebacks, property damage risk, and liability.
Guests scan their ID and take a quick selfie from their phone. No lines, no paperwork, no front-desk delays.
Why Switch
Unverified guests increase risk. Manual processes slow operations.

The ID verification feature has instilled a greater sense of confidence in our team, ensuring the authenticity and security of our guest interactions.
Upon successful verification and registration, guests receive a secure digital key via email. This key allows them to access their assigned apartment using smart locks, eliminating the need for physical key handovers.
We have been working with Chekin since we managed 10 properties, and it has really helped us grow as a business. We now manage more than 120 properties throughout Spain.
Identity verification is an add-on feature available on paid plans. Pricing is per verification — you only pay when a guest completes the process. It’s designed to pay for itself by preventing just one fraudulent booking.
Yes. All biometric data is encrypted in transit and at rest. Chekin is fully GDPR-compliant, ISO certified, and ENISA-compliant. Data is retained only for the legally required period and then automatically deleted.
If the biometric comparison doesn’t produce a confident match, the guest is prompted to retry. If it still fails, you’re notified and can choose to verify manually from your Chekin dashboard.
Chekin supports passports, national identity cards, driving licences, and residence permits from over 150 countries. The OCR engine is trained on more than 2,500 document templates.
Selfie match compares a single photo against the document photo — it’s the fastest method. Liveness detection adds a short video sequence with on-screen prompts, confirming a real person is present and blocking spoofing attempts.
