Jumio says the approach maintains high security standards while improving user
Jumio has launched its reusable identity solution, selfie. DONE, across the Asia-Pacific region, enabling regulated businesses to verify returning customers using facial recognition instead of repeated document scans. The rollout, announced on September 15, 2026, targets financial institutions, telecoms, and digital platforms seeking faster onboarding while meeting compliance requirements. By allowing users to verify identity with a live selfie matched to a previously verified profile, the system reduces friction in customer re-authentication processes. How Selfie. DONE Streamlines Repeat Verification The technology works by creating a secure, reusable digital identity token after an initial ID verification. When a user returns, they simply take a live selfie, which is compared to the stored biometric template using Jumio’s AI-powered liveness detection and facial matching. This eliminates the need to re-upload passports, driver’s licenses, or utility bills, cutting verification time from minutes to seconds.
