## What is Optical Phone Authentication?

Verify identities with the KINEGRAM® OPA solution! This app lets you authenticate the DOVID, namely the KINEGRAM security feature, in ID cards, drivers licenses or passports with your mobile phone. Identity checks in travel, on-boarding processes or financial transactions become more reliable.

Using a back-end server connection, KINEGRAM® OPA is ideally suited to complement human document inspection or replace it altogether.

This version of the app works with a generic sample card available upon request. To verify international identity documents, an SDK solution is available from OVD Kinegram – please get in touch with us at digitalsolutions@kinegram.com.
