How it works

Four steps, under a minute

Authenticate the document, prove the person presenting it is its holder, check them against existing records, then keep that verified identity for every interaction that follows.

document_scanner

Authenticate the document

Purpose-built readers check national IDs, passports and driving licences under visible, infrared and UV light, as well as low-cost credentials such as the QR codes used by agent networks.

face

Prove the person is its holder

Face capture with liveness detection matches the person present against the portrait on the document, so a stolen or made-up identity cannot get through.

rule

Check against existing records

Biometric deduplication matches every new record against those already enrolled, so duplicate and ghost customers are caught and per-person limits enforced at the point of capture.

lock

Keep the verified identity

The document evidence, biometrics and decision are retained as an auditable record and reused for re-authentication, high-value transactions and new products.

Frequently asked questions

Which documents can Laxton authenticate?

National ID cards, passports, driving licences and residence permits, read against international machine-readable document standards, plus low-cost credentials such as printed QR codes used by agent and dealer networks.

How does liveness detection work?

The device analyses the live capture for signs that a real person is present, which a photo, screen or mask cannot reproduce. It then matches that capture against the portrait read from the document.

What certifications do the devices carry?

FBI-certified fingerprint scanners, CE marking, RoHS compliance and MIL-STD-810H durability testing, with biometric capture aligned to ISO/IEC 19794 and NIST guidance.

Does the check work without an internet connection?

Yes. Document authentication, face match and liveness all run on the device. Records are encrypted locally and synced securely once a connection returns, so the check is never blocked by connectivity.

Can we integrate this with our existing systems?

Yes. The software exposes APIs for core banking, billing, CRM and KYC platforms, so a first branch or dealer network can typically be onboarded without a lengthy IT project.

Who is the eKYC solution for?

Any regulated organisation that must prove a customer is who they claim to be at onboarding or at a transaction, such as banks, mobile operators, insurers and payment or remittance providers.
