Identity verification for prepaid and postpaid contracts in Switzerland:

In accordance with Art. 21 of the Federal Act on the Surveillance of Postal and Telecommunications Traffic (SPTA) and Art. 20a of the Ordinance on the Surveillance of Postal and Telecommunications Traffic (SPTA), an identity check is required when activating mobile services. In addition, video or online identification must meet the requirements of FINMA Circular 2016/07.

Our solution meets these requirements. Identity verification can be used for both prepaid and postpaid mobile phone contracts from telecommunications companies based in Switzerland.

Identity verification for postpaid contracts in Germany:

The Federal Network Agency (BNetzA ) recommends that telecommunications providers verify the identity of postpaid subscribers and permits the use of the Auto-ID procedure. Identity verification is required by TKG §172 (1) and can be carried out for postpaid contracts, e.g. when taking out a mobile phone contract online or on site when purchasing a SIM card.

Verify your postpaid customers in real time and without interruption and encourage them to conclude the contract.
