Ident Security vs Shufti NFC Reader

This app is part of PXL Ident, the leading Swiss solution for verifying ID documents. Depending on the verification flow, it can read the NFC chip in your passport or ID card using your phone's NFC capability, and/or perform additional security checks required to complete your verification. This app does not work stand-alone. It runs as part of the onboarding or identity verification workflow of service providers using our application.
