They verify your liveness and identity documents while opening an account.
Disclaimer: I work for the company that provides this service to revolut.
Side note: It's actually surprisingly difficult to verify that a document isn't fraudulent, and traditional in-person banks that accept documents in person are more susceptible to fraud than you might think. Is the average account exec trained as a border control agent? Do they read the MRZ lines?
- codemusings 8y agoFrom their website (unfortunately in German): Keine Bonitätsprüfung, kein Adressnachweis. Which translates to: "No check of credit worthiness, no ID verification". So either it's different in some countries or it's false advertising. Either way. Banks are the one thing I'm scared of getting the Silicon Valley treatment.
